CI Games announced today that the highly anticipated third installment of the Sniper: Ghost Warrior franchise will miss its January 2017 release date, and will now adjust its sights for a April 4, 2017 launch.
“We’re making an ambitious game and unfortunately still need an extra few months to make sure it will stand up to the expectations of the fans,” said Marek Tymiński, CEO of CI Games. “Our goal is to ensure Sniper: Ghost Warrior 3 runs smoothly on all platforms, and right now we still have some important work left on optimizing the game. This is our biggest project we’ve ever worked on and the entire team is pushing really hard to make the entire experience more polished. I really hope everyone will understand our decision and will wait the extra time to play something we’re excited about, and that will redefine our IP and the sniping genre as a whole. This is a new beginning for the Sniper: Ghost Warrior series.”
Sniper: Ghost Warrior 3 will abandon the linear structure used by its predecessors, letting players explore an open world and take on targets however they want.
I think also, that this move is a good idea, espacialy, there they have problems with stable running on consoles. Additionaly PC version will also have some tuning. I wish that they released more trailers or screens from new missions.
Yeah, the game looks like a really big step up from the previous Sniper: Ghost Warrior titles, but we haven’t seen enough gameplay to know if it’s worth it or not.
I’ve actually tried the game on a event in Warsaw, Poland. I had a chance to play it for like 15 minutes but I was impressed with what I saw. Sneaking and sniping felt very good. Keep in mind it was a alpha version and there’s still 6 months for the release
That’s good to hear, good sniper games are a rarity nowadays.
Also many movies on the net is showing how this game has changed from the last time. CI Games tis trying very hard to surprise players and this time i think, that they won. But with verdict i will wait till april.
Yup, hopefully we won’t be disappointed 🙂
It’s a shame, but what can you do? We have to wait. I hope it’s gonna be worth it, but when I watch gameplays and trailers I’m pretty sure we won’t be disappointed.
Well, If they need some extra time that’s okay. I prefer to play in finished game, not in a finished, plus day one patch. hopefully, these probably is certification problem, maybe some optimization. and they quickly get rid of this bugs.
Yup, a finished game is always better than a rushed title. Considering all the work that’s going into Ghost Warrior 3, I’m not too worried about this delay.
I’m not happy about this deley thing again… Now we have to wait until April 2017. What the hell?? They want me to have heart attack? 🙂
Heya just wanted to give you a brief heads up and let you know a few of the images aren’t loading correctly. I’m not sure why but I think its a linking issue. I’ve tried it in two different internet browsers and both show the same outcome.
That’s weird, I’ve tested my website with external tools and didn’t encounter that issue.
They working hard, im sure of that. And as aproof i have almost fresh gameplay movie, that shows how many tricks we can use to be invisible or how to lure out enemies: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=842_kGkRa14
I missed that video. Thanks for sharing it, looks good!
Also thanks for this material. I watched it few times and im still impressed how CI Games made such good looking envionement. I hope, that there will be more mission in fog, cuz this effect is great.
I missed that movie too, but someone just made it private:/ And from now on things goes littlebit harder. But with some luck, i’ve foud new movie or should i say new link: https://youtu.be/gfgHbXuoPqQ

Thanks for sharing. I was afraid, that this movie was gone forever. ut luckly you were that hero, that saved Sniper Ghost Warrior 3 gameplay form being forgotten:)
Link is dead – again, but thats not so important. Importent is fact, that CI Games will have on stand on PlayStation eXperience in California. Also important thing is, that Sniper Ghost Warrior 3 will have multiplayer.

Thanks for the update 🙂 I can see why it was delayed, they are adding all sorts of interesting things now.
Thanks for fresh info! I was wondered if they will put multi[player in to this game or not. Now i have clarity and making such MP in sniper world will be somthing great,
Yhm, guys, the interview is “old”:) Here is a fresh one with info about lenght of campaign and size of map. So there is more interesting things iside to, so check it out:) . http://www.doyouevengamebro.net/we-talk-sniper-ghost-warrior-3-with-senior-level-designer-tomasz-pruski/
Thanks for a link. I was reading this interview and many users should be pleased. PC gamer will have HDR and multiGPU support. Console fans will have stable [i think] 30fps and quite high resolutions. Thats good result. Im wonder how CI Games will use PS4 Pro power?
Eurogamer has a video with new gameplay (36 minutes)

Thanks for sharing new material form game. These two mission was already on the net, but this time they are showend in daylight and not by night:)
I was still thinking about that gameplays, that were released. It only shows few missions radomly. I think, that CI Games wnat to make us certain that game can be ended on many ways. Its importnat in open world games, right?
Its important, and now can deny it. More taime in game = more fun we have. CI Games released new gameplay with real new mission: http://www.ign.com/videos/2016/12/09/sniper-ghost-warrior-3-new-mission-gameplay-ign-first
