Sniper Ghost Warrior Contracts rolled out at the end of 2019 to some fairly decent success. Even though it could have been a bit more polished, as a sniping affair, it more than hit the spot. Now though CI Games are back, today teasing some extreme long-range shooting with Sniper Ghost Warrior Contracts 2.
Coming to Xbox One, PS4 and PC, with Sniper Ghost Warrior Contracts 2 CI Games are looking to take what some see as the best in class sniping experience to the next level. How does taking down a target from a cool 1000+ metres away sound?
By sharing an in-engine teaser for Sniper Ghost Warrior Contracts 2, CI Games are setting the stage for one of the most important gameplay changes coming in the upcoming sequel: Extreme long-range sniping. It is something that should be expected in any sniping title, but long-range shooting is something the Sniper Ghost Warrior community has asked for and so CI are giving it.
As the new video teases, you’ll be able to take a shot some 1,506 meters away, with Contracts 2’s long-range shooting well supported by more accurate weapons, heightened realism, and enhanced visuals when it launches this winter.
“The Sniper community really enjoyed the changes we made with Contracts and the sniper’s paradise sandboxes but, based on their feedback, we designed the latest game with very long-range shots in mind,” said CI Games CEO Marek Tyminski. “We hope to continue building on the best sniping gameplay around and make significant steps forward in bringing modern, realistic sniping experience to consoles and PC. Our team is really excited to introduce the extreme range campaign in Contracts 2.”
Contracts 2 will look to build on what was found first time around, taking us to a sniper’s paradise with challenging long-range maps set in the game’s new modern setting. In addition to the core contracts, these campaigns are hand-crafted to provide engaging and robust gameplay over extreme distances. These maps will challenge even the most skilled snipers as players complete complex challenges undetected from over a kilometer away.
You should be expecting a much more grounded and relevant experience in Contracts 2 too; set in modern day 2021 Middle East, you will join Reaper, a sniper on a mission, taking advantage of new weapons and gear to take down more intelligent enemies across new, expansive maps.
For now you could do a ton worse than check out the teaser below. And if you like what you are seeing, hold tight till that winter launch. In the meantime, the Steam page is open for wishlisting.
