Finish off the level and exit back to the main menu after the stats screen. You should notice while you're hovering over "Continue Game" that on the left of the screen it displays the level you've been playing on and shows "Playing As Sniper Elite".Ħ: If this has all worked correctly then you should be at the final checkpoint of the level but now are playing on Sniper Elite difficulty.

I'm not sure if it works without having the levels already unlocked.ġ: From the main menu go to "Single Player" then "Mission Select" and choose the level you want. I'm assuming most people will have already played through the campaign once before attempting this. Masterslider_b341.Sniper Elite difficulty is HARD!
