Developed by City Interactive · Published by CI Games









You play as a special-operations sniper on military missions that take you from jungle terrain in the Philippines to Sarajevo’s ruined streets and mountain settings in Tibet.
Move between firing positions, observe enemy patrols, and use stealth to set up shots or support your squad from a distance. Shooting involves steadying your aim and accounting for wind, distance, and bullet drop; successful shots can trigger a slow-motion bullet camera.
Missions guide you through set objectives, with limited room for alternate routes. Difficulty settings change how much assistance you get when aiming, and equipment includes sniper rifles, a sidearm, binoculars, and night-vision or thermal optics. The game also includes multiplayer.
Players who enjoy the game often praise the satisfaction of lining up long-range shots and the added calculation of wind, distance, and bullet drop. Reviews also highlight the varied settings, stealth-focused missions, and improvements in sniping compared with the first game. Other reviewers find the missions too scripted, the campaign short, or the enemy behavior and technical stability inconsistent.
