Save Winston Churchill in Sniper Elite 3’s DLC campaign

A three-part campaign, centered around protecting Winston Churchill from a German assassination attempt in the lead-up to the Casablanca Conference, makes up the heart of a new DLC announcement for Sniper Elite 3, from Rebellion Developments. The downloadable content will be released over the course of the summer, with details in the video below.

This new single player campaign takes players back to the main game’s Siwa Oasis map for part one, though it will be set at night, and the city has been bombed out to give it a different feel from the previous Siwa Oasis mission (which served as Sniper Elite 3‘s lengthy tutorial). In the parts to follow, players will investigate a secret weapons facility and do battle in the ruins of an ancient coliseum, the largest environment ever created for a Sniper Elite game. There will also be new weapons and unit types introduced over the three-part campaign.

In addition to the add-on single player campaign, there will also be new multiplayer maps, made available as free downloads. The first map to be released is Airfield, which will look familiar to players of the single-player campaign. This version of Airfield has taken some damage, however, with blown out hangars, plane wreckage, and flanking routes underneath the airfield.

The new multiplayer map is the first in a series of free maps to be released this summer. New locations include a “tropical” map featuring dense foliage, a “high-altitude” map with three spires separated by a dried-up riverbed, and a “ruinous battlefield” set close to the coastline.

The first part of the Sniper Elite 3: Save Churchill DLC is available now on Steam for $6.99, and will be coming soon to consoles. We recently reviewed Sniper Elite 3; check out our thoughts on this surprisingly solid game here.

Will there be DLC for Baldur’s Gate 3?
A group of four adventures stands on the ends of a cliff in Baldur's Gate 3.

Having come out on both PC and PlayStation, with Xbox said to arrive in the near future, adventurers have already dumped hundreds of hours in Baldur’s Gate 3. This unexpected hit for the CRPG genre is as deep as it is long, and yet some have already managed to plow through all three of the game's acts. Despite there being tons of ways to experiment and replay using all the different Races and Classes, people are already getting hungry for more. In the modern age, DLC for massive hits like Baldur’s Gate 3 is almost a sure thing, and yet this game is by no means normal. From its long early access period to the sheer amount of dynamic and reactive ways to interact with the world, this is a very unique product. That has left many to question whether or not there will ever be any DLC for Baldur’s Gate 3.
Is Baldur's Gate 3 getting DLC?

At the time of writing, there are no concrete plans for DLC for Baldur’s Gate 3, but that doesn't mean it isn't in the cards. The latest update Larian has given on any potential future expansions came from an IGN interview with Product Manager Tom Butler during Gamescom 2023. He stated "We'll carry on patching for a while and then we're all going to take a holiday and then we'll figure out what we do next. But at the moment, we genuinely have discussions. We want to do more. We don't know what yet." No doubt the team deserves a break after the years of work put into Baldur’s Gate 3, and while fans will be somewhat disappointed to know nothing beyond fixes and updates are in the works as of now, you can at least know that it is being talked about.

How to beat the Faith-Leap Trial in Baldur’s Gate 3
A Baldur's Gate 3 character lights the way.

The Gauntlet of Shar is, well, quite a gauntlet in Baldur’s Gate 3. This dungeon changes things up a bit by giving you three unique trails to challenge you in different ways. The Faith-Leap Trail is perhaps the most puzzling of them all, and may even appear impossible when you first see it. The thing is, you can't trust your eyes in this trial. There's just too large of a gap between you and the goal for you to cross unless you do as the name suggests and take a leap of faith. But don't just put your faith in Shar and hope for the best -- instead let us show you the path.
How to beat the Faith-Leap Trial

Once you enter this trail after making the blood sacrifice, you will see the Umbral Gem way across a massive death pit. But there actually is a path forward, just an invisible one. The path is the same every time, so as long as you memorize it, you'll be fine, but you should still make a safety save just in case. You only get three tries before anyone you're controlling who falls will die.

A player conversation in Baldur's Gate 3.

The cast of characters you meet and interact with in Baldur’s Gate 3 are some of the highlights of the entire experience. Odds are most, if not all, will intrigue you in some way, encouraging you to learn more about them and to help them with their personal goals. Like plenty of RPGs, your companions in Baldur’s Gate 3 all have unique companion quests that are unique to them that unlock at different stages of your adventure and relationship with them. Each one asks something different of you, with Karalach being one of the most unique and difficult. Karlach is in desperate need of a very rare resource and asks you to collect something called Infernal Iron. If you're at a loss for where to find it, here are the places to look.
Where to find Infernal Iron

There are three known pieces of Infernal Iron in the early game.
