Sniper Ghost Warrior Contracts 2 delayed on PS5

Sniper Ghost Warrior Contracts 2 Updates: Developers CI Games announced on May 8th on Twitter that Sniper Ghost Warrior Contracts 2 launch will be delayed.

The much-anticipated game which was scheduled for a June 4th release for PS5 has been pushed back due to some unavoidable technical issues, according to the released statement.

The game is a tactical sniper shooter game that is based upon stealth and advanced shooting mechanics. Players have to move across large areas eliminating targets with long-range snipers.

The launch of the game for PS5 on June 4th coincided with its global launch on other platforms as PS4, Xbox One, Xbox Series X, and S and PC. To some relief for gamers on these platforms, the launch date remains the same for all consoles except PS5.
