Sniper Ghost Warrior Contracts Announces November Release Date

Sniper Ghost Warrior Contracts from CI Games announced today that it will have a global release date of November 22nd, 2019. Coming to PC, PS4, and Xbox One, it’s a return to form for the Sniper Ghost Warrior with high-impact sniping, and more tools than ever before to take down your targets. Today’s video takes us to Siberia’s wilderness, and the Sniper, known as Black Gold they are in the second of five regions present in the game. Each will be based on actual locations, deep in the heart of Siberia. There are plenty of wide-open spaces, and places to test a new mechanic.

This new sniping mechanic is the Dynamic Reticle System”, which will let players manage their ballistics and atmospheric conditions in each and every shot. Contracts has a major focus on realistic sniping, stealth, and tactical thinking, so players will have access to pilotable Scout Drones, and integrated binoculars, with a built-in recon system. There’s also the Augmented Reality Mask, and special bullet types, so there is plenty of tools to use in battle.

At the core of all of this is the brand new contracts system. Scattered across each region are main contracts which task players with executing key targets in order to progress to new regions. While there are a total of 25 main contracts that comprise the core campaign narrative, each region acts as a sniping sandbox, densely-packed with side-objectives to complete and ambient tasks to uncover. There will be a deep single-player campaign, and a wealth of multiplayer options, so it will offer something for everyone while keeping all involved on their toes.
