Sniper Elite V2 is heading to Wii U in 2013, courtesy of developer Rebellion and publisher 505 Games. The game's debut images show how the GamePad is used to pull off skull-splitting sniper kills.

In a statement sent to VG247, Sniper Elite V2 on Wii U will feature"all new controls and a level of interactivity only possible with the Wii U GamePad touch screen."

Jason Kingsley, CEO of Rebellion said “Sniper Elite is just the kind of mature game that is perfect for the different mechanics of the Wii U. It’s been a challenge to get it right, but thanks to our team and the fantastic support of our partners at 505 Games we believe we’ve brought the unique gameplay to a whole new platform.”
