It won’t be long now before wannabe Tom Berengers are popping skulls in CI Games’Sniper: Ghost Warrior Contracts 2, currently in the works for PS4, PC, and Xbox One. But ahead of this sharpshooting sequel, the polish developer has announced that theSniper: Ghost Warriorfranchise has hit a new milestone of 11 million global sales.
In a blog post on the official CI Games website, CEO Marek Tyminski spoke of the company’s pride in theSniperseries. “The franchise is important to us, ”said Tyminski in the post.“We have learned a lot fromSniper Ghost Warrior 3and we successfully launchedSniper Ghost Warrior Contracts, which just passed the 1 million units mark. The next installment in the franchiseSniper Ghost Warrior Contracts 2will be released globally soon.”
TheSniperseries began in earnest back in 2008, with the poorly received PC releaseSniper: Art of Victory.Since then, the franchise has evolved into a modern, hi-tech shooter, with 2019’sSniper: Ghost Warrior Contractsfocusing on objective-based missions housed within small sandbox maps. Tyminski has expressed regret with the franchise’s earlier attempts to chase the AAA military shooter market, and now seems content to focus on a continued scaled-down approach, befitting the series’ smaller, but dedicated audience.
