Sniper: Ghost Warrior 2 takes the bulls-eye precision of its best-selling predecessor to new and exciting heights. Powered by the CryENGINE 3 engine, the missions of Sniper: Ghost Warrior 2 are graphically stunning and more challenging as you once again step into the ghilliesuit of a special ops sniper to take down the enemy. Weapons of Mass Destruction (WMD) are about to be purchased in a secret locale. A lone Sniper is dispatched with the primary objective of assisting in the interception of that sale at all costs. Dropped into the mission zone via boat and under cover of darkness, the Sniper must move quickly through the night to reach a secure vantage point. Once there, he must provide cover to the commandos that are intercepting the purchase of the biological WMDs. Targets are eliminated and evaded but the mission goes FUBAR when the Sniper has to save his brother-in-arms from an airfield over run by enemy forces.
