![]() By doing so, you slowly weaken their grip on the surrounding area(s) and destabilize their military forces. You’ll find yourself in the Middle East, taking down assigned targets, hoping to topple an evil regime that is gaining a foothold in the region. While there is some story value to be found when playing through Sniper Ghost Warrior Contracts 2, it’s a fairly generic affair. Now, with the release of Sniper Ghost Warrior Contracts 2 for PlayStation 5, we might finally be able to break out the champagne. Nonetheless, the fan base has been hoping that the games would improve, as the foundation was often quite interesting. These games often barely scored the halfway mark, making them somewhat of a mixed bag for enthusiasts of the genre. We even reviewed part 2 and 3 of the original series in the past ourselves. The story also doesn't do Contracts 2 any favours. Nevertheless, if you are looking for a fun sniping experience, you can play while you listen to a podcast or to release tension after work then Sniper Ghost Warrior Contracts 2 is worth a look.The Sniper Ghost Warrior series has been going on for quite some time now, and for the most part, it only spawned fairly mediocre releases. ![]() While it does run well, the overall lack of content does hurt the product a bit as it doesn't really feel like you are getting enough diversity for the price and length on offer. The gunplay and gameplay are the smoothest it has ever been in the franchise and a solid footing has been found for the level structure, objectives, and moment-to-moment situations you find yourself in when sniping your enemies. ![]() Joe Apsey, PlayStation Universe: " Sniper Ghost Warrior Contracts 2 is a big step in the right direction for CI Games. Still, Sniper Ghost Warrior Contracts 2 manages to retain the thrills and ridiculous kill shots that fans have come to enjoy." Certain functions also feel a bit restrictive. It mixes sandbox-style exploration with instances that make you feel that it's an 'arcadey' shooter. Unfortunately, the recently released sequel does regress ever so slightly. All Sniper Ghost Warrior Contracts 2 had to do was follow its predecessor's formula and add some improvements where necessary. CI Games' offering provided a solid experience that combined stealth and FPS action, somewhat reminiscent of the Metal Gear Solid, Hitman, and Sniper Elite franchises. Jason Rodriguez, PC Invasion: " When Sniper Ghost Warrior Contracts launched in late 2019, I was pleasantly surprised. It'd be even better if it had any idea what it was trying to say." I certainly enjoyed the game a lot despite this though, and I think CI Games has established a winning formula for the future. Whether that's an indictment of the Middle-East, foreign involvement, or mankind in general, I have no idea, and I don't imagine Sniper Ghost Warrior: Contracts 2 does either. I won’t spoil the ending, but there's a twist that suggests that all of the horrible things you did to bring freedom to the Middle-East was in vain, and that this is a cycle that will be endlessly repeated. It didn't make me feel guilty for playing it à la Funny Games, nor did it lead me to contemplate the deeper meaning of its themes like The Last of Us Part 2. Whatever tongue-in-cheek thing CI Games was trying to do with the sympathetic collateral victims and the casual approach to political violence totally didn't land for me. With an upgrade system that's largely skippable and mostly uninspired mission challenges, Sniper Ghost Warrior Contracts 2 is a competent sniper sim that lacks the edge required to be a real sharpshooter."Įric Switzer, TheGamer: "Ultimately, Sniper Ghost Warrior: Contracts 2 is a really strong stealth shooter in an unfortunate package. ![]() Its long range sniper shots feel genuinely satisfying to pull off, but the enemy AI is so dimwitted it almost seems cruel to kill them. ![]() Tristan Ogilvie, IGN: " Sniper Ghost Warrior Contracts 2 blows off a heck of a lot of heads, but never managed to blow my mind. ![]()
