IGN has sat down with CI Games, the developers behind the Sniper Ghost Warrior series and shows off 11 minutes of exclusive gameplay from the upcoming sequel, Sniper Ghost Warrior Contracts.
Watch the gameplay with developer commentary below:
Sniper Ghost Warrior Contracts is a departure from the open-world design of Sniper Ghost Warrior 3 and will focus on the more focused contracts system, something both traditional and new. According to the developers, shifting to a sandbox design better suited the intense sniping experience the game is trying to deliver and the fans couldn’t agree more. This new design will add more replayability due to the players having many more ways to dispatch targets and customize the player character along with their gadgets.
