What players say

Great game that brought different gameplay to the series by making it open world exploration type. Since the last games was like 3 hours of gameplay to me This provides more variety and longer gameplay for the price. It has its ups and downs. for instance occasional glitches and sometimes the game just crashes. not much of PROBLEM since glitches disappear after restarting the game. also the game takes longer to load...

Hard core gamers will enjoy this game. You will feel the ambiance, the story, and the hype of role-playing as a real sniper. Nice value. Nice mechanics. Nice maps.
NOOBVIOUSRecommendedafter 51hOct 2026Read on Steam
There are a lot of really great things about this game, but the bugs and lack of optimization just ruin the experience. The game breaks and glitches to the point that it's just not an enjoyable experience.
