{"title":"Rebellion","description":"\u003cp\u003eRebellion Developments is one of the last large British studios still owned by the people who started it. Brothers Jason Kingsley, the chief executive, and Chris Kingsley, the chief technology officer, founded the company in Oxford, England on December 4, 1992, and it remains privately held, independent and headquartered in that city more than three decades later. The break that got it off the ground came from Atari UK: the brothers showed Atari a 3D dragon-flight demo at the moment it was hunting for Atari Jaguar games, and Rebellion's first two releases, Checkered Flag and Alien vs Predator, both shipped on the Jaguar in 1994. The Alien and Predator license became a recurring thread, with Aliens Versus Predator arriving on PC in 1999 and Aliens vs. Predator (2010) debuting at number one in the UK charts. The studio's own flagship, though, is Sniper Elite. The 2005 original won Best PC\/Console Game at that year's TIGA Awards and began a series that runs through Sniper Elite V2 (2012), Sniper Elite 3 (2014) and later entries up to Sniper Elite: Resistance (2025), a franchise Rebellion says has reached more than 20 million players. Around it sit the Zombie Army games, the 1930s pulp adventure Strange Brigade (2018), Evil Genius 2: World Domination (2021) and the post-war British survival game Atomfall, released on March 27, 2025.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eRebellion is unusual among game developers in how far it has spread beyond games. In June 2000 it bought the British comic 2000 AD from Fleetway Publications, taking on Judge Dredd and Rogue Trooper with it, and that purchase became the basis of a publishing business that now includes the book imprints Solaris and Abaddon Books alongside the comic. The company has also grown by acquisition. In 2006 it took over Core Design, the original Tomb Raider studio, from Eidos, running it as Rebellion Derby until its closure in 2010, and in the same year it picked up the Elixir Studios properties Evil Genius and Republic: The Revolution. In 2009 it added a group of former Vivendi strategy properties including Ground Control, Empire Earth, Lords of Magic and Lords of the Realm, and later studio acquisitions became Rebellion Warwick in 2018 and Rebellion North in 2019. Rebellion Productions, founded in 2017 and housed in a converted newspaper factory in Didcot, England, is the company's film and television arm; its first feature was School's Out Forever (2021), and it is developing Judge Dredd and Rogue Trooper projects. Jason Kingsley was awarded an OBE in 2012, and the company employed around 475 people as of 2022. For players, what matters is a studio that has kept its founders in charge and its own properties in house, and our catalog carries Sniper Elite 3 on Steam, which Rebellion both developed and publishes on PC.\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"sniper-elite-iii-pc-download","title":"Sniper Elite III","description":"\u003cp class=\"lead\"\u003eSniper Elite 3 trades the rubble of Berlin for the sun-bleached canyons, oases and ancient cities of North Africa, where Karl Fairburne hunts the Afrika Korps through huge open levels in a race to stop a Nazi super-weapon program. Rebellion's third-person shooter is built around patience: read the wind, steady your breathing, and let one bullet change the course of the war.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eA Sniper's War in the Western Desert\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSet in 1942, the campaign follows Karl Fairburne from the siege of Tobruk through the Gaberoun oasis, Halfaya Pass, Fort Rifugio, Siwa and Kasserine to an airfield at Pont du Fahs and the hidden factory beyond it. What starts as a routine assignment against Rommel's supply lines becomes a hunt for a weapon that could end Allied resistance in Africa for good. Each mission is a large, multi-route space with primary and secondary objectives you can tackle in any order, so a ridge line, a wadi or a marketplace roof can become your firing position depending on how you choose to work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eBallistics That Reward Patience\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe series' signature gunplay is at its sharpest here. Every rifle shot accounts for distance, gravity, wind and your own heart rate, and the Western Desert's long sight lines invite shots that would be reckless anywhere else. Time the trigger to an artillery barrage or a running generator to mask the report, and the enemy will never know where the bullet came from.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdl\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eRevamped X-Ray Kill Cam\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003eA clean shot triggers the acclaimed slow-motion camera, now showing detailed muscle layers, 3D mesh particles and the complete circulatory system as the bullet passes through.

Multi-stage destruction lets you dismantle armored cars, trucks and Tiger tanks piece by piece, from shooting out a driver's view slit to detonating a fuel tank or an engine block once the plating has been stripped away.\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003c\/dl\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eStealth, Traps and the Relocate Mechanic\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSniper Elite 3 gives you the tools to fight on your own terms. Stalk patrols through the twisting canyons with stealth and distractions, rig trip mines along a route you know a convoy will take, or drop an officer with a melee takedown before he can raise the alarm. If things go hot, the new Relocate mechanic lets you break contact, slip back into the shadows and start the hunt again from a fresh position instead of trading fire in the open.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSound masking turns the battlefield into cover: wait for artillery, generators or aircraft to drown out your rifle and the garrison keeps searching in the wrong direction.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTraps, distractions and explosive ordnance give you options beyond the scope, so an enemy camp can be taken apart methodically without ever firing a long-range shot.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDifficulty and assistance are fully adjustable. Turn off every aid and turn up the AI for the authentic experience, or dial the settings to suit your preferred playstyle.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eCo-op and Competitive Multiplayer\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe entire campaign can be played in two-player online co-op, with one partner spotting and the other pulling the trigger, or both working opposite flanks of a fort. Two dedicated co-op modes push teamwork further: Overwatch pairs a sniper with a spotter who must mark targets and handle close work, while Survival throws waves of Afrika Korps at your position.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFive competitive online modes cover everything from Team Deathmatch to Distance King and No Cross, where a valley separates the teams and only the longest, cleanest shots count. XP carries across all modes, and Medals and Ribbons reward the way you play as you customize your character, weapons and loadout.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eTake the Shot\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe desert is wide, the wind is shifting, and somewhere below a convoy is about to roll through your sights.

Settle into position, read the range, and make the one bullet count.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rebellion","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41691734156,"sku":"PC_11064815308_DL_L_BY_RU_SS_XK","price":8.79,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0875\/3268\/files\/card-sniper-elite-iii-pc-steam-game.jpg?v=1789600317"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.pjsgames.com\/en-ch\/collections\/rebellion.oembed","provider":"PJ's Games","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
