Sniper Elite 3 is in development for current- and next-gen consoles, publisher 505 Games announced today.

“Sniper Elite V2 was just the beginning of what we want to do with the franchise, there are things we didn’t have time to do before that we can really look at featuring this time,” said Rebellion CEO Jason Kingsley. “We want to focus on making this latest incarnation of Sniper Elite more of a sandbox game and also build on the awesome X-Ray Kill Cam and the atmospheric World War II setting.”

It was previously confirmed that Sniper Elite V2 developer Rebellion was in fact working on a PS4 project.

Sniper Elite 3 is set to launch sometime 2014.
