Sniper: Ghost Warrior 2 takes the bulls-eye precision of its predecessor to new and exciting heights with graphically stunning and more challenging mission as you once again step into the ghilliesuit of a special ops sniper to take down the enemy.

Taking advantage of the advanced capabilities of the CryENGINE3, it delivers striking graphic environments; more diverse sniper challenges; a rebuilt AI system and the thrilling “one shot; one kill” precision that made the original sell 3 million copies worldwide.  With unparalleled levels of realism in weaponry, ballistics and environmental factors, Sniper: Ghost Warrior 2 offers a complete experience for sniper fans.

Thus, as the player picks their way through the war zone locations, they now have access to weapons with differing ranges, thermal vision and advanced spotter cooperation with your colleagues. The missions of Sniper: Ghost Warrior 2 are graphically stunning and more challenging as you once again step into the ghilliesuit of a special ops sniper to take down the enemy.

Marek Tyminski, CEO of CI Games, said:  “Since release, the first Sniper: Ghost Warrior has sold over three million copies on multiple platforms. Ghost Warrior 2 will deliver an even greater experience for all those fans of the first game, expanding on this dramatic, exciting world of elite military service.”
