What is Sniper Ghost Warrior Contracts?

A first-person action shooter about a paid assassin taking contracts in Siberia’s mountains, forests, and hidden bases. You scan areas, stalk targets, line up long-range shots, use gadgets, and choose between sniping and silent takedowns. Contracts have set objectives and cash rewards, with optional challenges funding upgrades; online PvP is also available.

For you if...

  • +you prefer patient sniping and stealth over fast firefights
  • +you like open-ended missions with multiple approaches
  • +you enjoy replaying objectives for optional challenges and upgrades

Not for you if...

  • −you want a seamless open world instead of mission maps
  • −you prefer close-range action over deliberate long-range shots
  • −you need a story-driven traditional campaign

What players say

73% of 11,530 reviews are positive · 78% of 73 in the last 30 days

Players most often praise the deliberate sniping, bullet physics, large sandbox maps, and freedom to approach objectives in different ways. The most common complaint is the lack of manual saves: sparse or poorly placed checkpoints can erase substantial progress; players also report bugs and inconsistent enemy detection.
