‘Sniper Ghost Warrior 3’ Gets 24-Minute Gameplay Video
Game developer CI Games has released a 24-minute gameplay video of the company’s upcoming game “Sniper Ghost Warrior 3,” which features one of the company’s representatives playing through a level and using some new features. Despite being a game that’s mostly about shooting, it seems like “Sniper 3” is living up to its title by focusing more on stealth and planning, rather than pulling a “Rambo” and shooting everyone on sight.
The story of “Sniper Ghost Warrior 3” involves a U.S. commando who is sneaking behind enemy lines to take down an unknown enemy, though the gameplay demo shows said the commando is planning to take out a Russian general. A report from Eurogamer states that Russia is waging a proxy war and it's up to the U.S. commando to tip the scales in his country’s favor.
He does this by using some of the game's newer gameplay elements, in addition to the stealth and shooting in the previous titles. Players will now be able to use their drone to scan the environment, gain information on some of the game’s enemies and even hack the enemy’s security cameras, as in “Watch Dogs.”
Players will also have to plan out their assassinations better in “Sniper Ghost Warrior 3,” since the demo shows the U.S. commando sneaking through minefields and avoiding the guards when necessary. Eventually, players will be able to find some safe houses to rest in and a workbench to upgrade one’s sniper equipment.
According to GameSpot, the “Sniper Ghost Warrior 3” gameplay demo was originally shown at the Electronic Entertainment Expo (E3) that took place in Los Angeles. This is reportedly the first time the footage has been revealed to the public, and it looks to be worth the wait, especially with a new demo coming in this year’s Gamescom event.
“Sniper Ghost Warrior 3” should be available sometime in 2016 for the PC, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One. “Sniper Ghost Warrior” is reportedly the best-selling series of CI Games, so it will be interesting to see how “Sniper Ghost Warrior 3” fares in comparison to other installments.
