Witness the evolution of the best-selling first-person sniping franchise in this gameplay overview trailer trailer for Sniper Ghost Warrior Contracts 2

May 12th, 2021 – London, UK — The latest entry in the best-selling first-person sniping franchise is less than one month away, and CI Games is excited to showcase the full gameplay experience on offer with its latest Gameplay Overview trailer. This new trailer provides a deepdive into the variety of gameplay available in Sniper Ghost Warrior Contracts 2, including sandbox-style maps, customisable weapons and equipment, and, of course, its shiny new feature — 1000m+ extreme-range sniping. But as well as new lengths, the title also promises to take the franchise to new heights as the most visually impressive entry yet, when it launches on June 4th, 2021 for Xbox Series X/S, Xbox One, PS4 and PC. All PS4 editions of the game will arrive with a free digital upgrade to the PS5 version, which will arrive later in the year.

The Gameplay Overview Trailer’s powerful narration is voiced by none other than Abubakar Salim, an established actor who’s fast becoming a mainstay in entertainment. Salim provided the voice of Rokhan in World of Warcraft: Battle for Azeroth (2018), the protagonist, Bayek, in Assassin’s Creed Origins (2017), and also contributed to the latest entry, Assassin’s Creed Valhalla (2020). Most recently, he starred in Ridley Scott’s acclaimed sci-fi series, Raised by Wolves (2020).
