Is it still worth playing?

Karl Fairburne goes to Italy to stop an assassination plot against Eisenhower, in this 2017 third person tactical shooter with stealth elements from Rebellion. A long distance kill with the sniper rifle triggers the X-Ray kill cam, which follows the bullet to the target and shows bones and organs breaking, and it now covers shrapnel, melee and stealth kills. The levels are big sandbox maps, from seaside fishing plazas to huge rural viaducts, and shots can reach targets from over 600 meters. You can hide your shots behind environmental sounds, and staying in one sniping spot too long lets enemies pin you down. Traps, corpses as booby traps and a new traversal system help you flank them. The campaign supports two player co-op, and there are multiplayer playlists. Choosing your own order and approach in each level still gives the stealth a lot of room.
