Sniper Ghost Warrior Contracts 2 will be set in modern-day with more game details being revealed in the coming months.

The most realistic and challenging sniping experience returns with Sniper Ghost Warrior Contracts 2 introducing precision long-range sniping over extreme distances to deliver the most engaging and robust single-player campaigns available in the genre.

Sniper Ghost Warrior Contracts 2 features a more grounded and relevant experience set in modern day 2021 Middle East. As contract sniper assassin Raven, players will utilize authentic gear and weaponry across large-scale sandbox maps as they track and eliminate targets using a variety of approaches.

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.

Delayed last month due to technical issues, CI Games announced that the PS5 version of Sniper Ghost Warrior Contracts 2 will release on August 24, 2021.

The PS5 edition will see Sniper Ghost Warrior Contracts 2 further enhanced, with players benefitting from Dualsense adaptive triggers that give each weapon its own distinct feeling, improved SSD loading times, upgraded textures and visuals, and the ability to play in either performance mode (60fps, 2K) or visual mode (30fps, 4k). 

Snipers can look forward to returning to the wilds of Kuamar very shortly, as CI Games will provide SGW Contract 2’s first major DLC release free of charge to the entire player base across all versions, including PS5, PS4, Xbox X/S, Xbox One and PC. Featuring a brand new and extensive region, complete with additional objectives and contracts, stay tuned for more news on this soon.

Eager PS5 players needn’t wait to fulfil their sniping aspirations, however, as all PS4 editions (both digital and physical) arrive with a free digital upgrade to the PS5 version, ready to download upon its release on August 24th 2021. 

"We’re thrilled with the response from fans so far, and can’t wait for PS5 players to experience Sniper Ghost Warrior Contracts 2. With adaptive trigger functionality, enhanced textures and visuals, and faster SSD loading times, there’s a lot to look forward to as we move closer to the PS5 launch,” said Tobias Heussner, EP, CI Games.

Pre-orders for PS5 physical editions are available from select retailers at $39.99 / €39,99 / £34,99 / AUD69.95, while the digital edition will be available at launch.
