Fans of Sniper: Ghost Warrior have certainly had to wait for their next fix. Sniper: Ghost Warrior 2 was initially scheduled for an August 2012 release. Developer and publisher City Interactive then announced that the game would not be released until October 2012. Fans were then disappointed once again when the release date was once more changed to January 2013. The hope that the game would finally come out in the New Year was then dashed by yet another change to the schedule.
But this time City Interactive kept their promise of a Mach 2013 target date, and the game is finally available for PC, Xbox 360, and PS3. Fans of the hugely popular, ultra-realistic first title are already raving about the game's realistic bullet physics, its intricate use of hand-to-hand assassination techniques, a pragmatic necessity to employ stealth techniques, and real-life factors that influence every decision made in the field.
Assume the role of Private Security Consultant Captain Cole Anderson, and begin a long, intense series of missions that will take you around the world. Locations include the urban jungle of Sarajevo, the deadly tropics of Burma, and the breathtaking Tibetan mountains.
With gorgeous graphics, and incredible gameplay, Sniper: Ghost Warrior 2 is already looking to be as good, if not better, than its predecessor.
