It looks like Sniper Ghost Warrior 3 has been delayed a third time by CI Games. Initially, Ghost Warrior 3 was set to launch in January but was delayed until April 4th. The release is now planned for April 25th across all platforms.
The reason for the delay was due to feedback from the beta which ran from February 3rd to the 5th. You can check out our first impressions of the beta here. CI Games wanted an additional three weeks to make some final implementations which according to them, will be worth the wait.
“We’ve worked tirelessly creating a whole new Sniper Ghost Warrior experience set in an ambitiously crafted open world new to the series,” said Marek Tyminski, CEO of CI Games. “While it’s an unfortunate decision to delay the game one last time, we believe these final changes will result in a better experience for players worldwide on day one. Thank you for your patience – we know the wait will be worth it.”

This news is like a thunder stiking form above, but it does’nt make any damage. Three weeks in this crazy spisnning word is like blinking of a eye. I hope, that they fix everyhting what was reported.
Chris George
Getting struck by lightning can be rare but from what I know, thunder strikes have yet to occur on this Earth. Despite all that, I understand what you mean. I certainly don’t think the additional 3 weeks is a big deal. I certainly would rather have a delay with little to no issues off the bat.
Maldy
Oh yeah man and also keep in mind that there is only 2 weeks at this point so it’s not that long now until you’ll be able to play the game!
Clamp
You’re right. Time go by so fast. Did you seen new version of SGW3 package? Stealth edition?
Maldy
Whaaaat? Stealth edition? That;’s the first time I hear about it man. Could you please provide a link or something?
Clamp
Sure, there’s two versions: one is with backpack, mug shirt and rubberbands and scond…well, look by yourself;) https://ebgames.com.au/ps4-225514-Sniper-Ghost-Warrior-3—Stealth-Edition-PlayStation-4
Robert
And now it’s only 9 days. Are you excited? I can’t wait to play SGW3 ;) It might be the best game in 2017.
Clamp
Im exited indeed. There’s only few days till premiere. I barely can be calm. How about you?
baileysbaileysbaileys
me two, i cant wait to get it and try it out myself!
Noizy Bird
Man, i was making place on my HDD to play that game. and now i ave so empty hard drive:) I belive, that CIG want just be sure, that everythings works in 100%.
Chris George
Yeah, I completely agree. I prefer the delay for a more polished product
Fatty
As far as I know the game is already finished by now and they are manufacturing the physical copies at the moment. I do hope that they fixed those few bugs that were present during beta
DannyB
I think that they will have fixed it by the time the game is released. I know that the development process is done but there is going to be a patch available on the day of the release
Fatty
I didn’t know about it man. I thought that we are not going to have day zero patch. Could you please link the news here?
DannyB
Sorry I don’t have the link here. I’ve heard about it in this interview but you’ll have to take my world for it :(
Gounder
I’ve heard about the day one patch as well @disqus_ftwuyYEmhu:disqus it has been confirmed in the recent interview but unfortunately I can’t find the link
Robert
It’s better to wait for fully improved game I think. It was good decision if they need more time to optimize everything.
Noizy Bird
Yeh, i’ve heard that now CI Games was made big AI update and we must agree to 0 day patch. But its better to download some fixes, than play without them.
baileysbaileysbaileys
the time is going to pass whether you count each minute or not, it doesn’t really matter. it was a month and now its a day, but the game will be better and fine-tuned forever.
Fatty
After watching the last killing compilation on youtube I am certain that this game will be awesome. There’s a lot more to the game than sniping :) check it out https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OjNcdZGrLsk
turas88
loool, this is the funniest gameplay that I’ve ever seen :D This guy shows a true meaning of “Warrior” style :D
Fatty
Yeah that’s right! I love the flying eagle style but this will actually be quite hard to accomplish :)
Gounder
I think if you play it on middle difficulty you will be able to pull off kills like this one. I don’t like playing games on hardcore mode. I just don’t have to much fun playing this way
Fatty
I do get your point man! I will try the challenge mode first but when it turns out to be too hard I will change it to medium
Clamp
I think, that this guy wnat to promote new style: “Driver”:)
Maldy
haha that’s right. Carmagedon 2 comes into my mind while I see people driving over some enemies. That was an awesome game!
Clamp
I played first part. I was some years ago, but it was so brrruuutal:) Last part, that was remade wasn’t so special. For fully happines, SGW3 need some vechicles upgrade:)
Fatty
Oh yes, this will be impossible in the challenge mode. You might pull it off when you play easy mode but on a higher difficulty you have to snipe first
Robert
HILARIOUS!!! :D:D:D:D I think his is the funniest video about any game ever made :)) And what’s odd IGN made this one. Their ‘funny videos’ are mostly pathetic.
Fatty
Well you are a bit harsh but unfortunately I have to agree with you. I mean most videos they made, where they were trying to be funny didn’t work for me
hooker
Awesome :) The funniest video ever! But you know there is no way to play without using snipng and sneaking, right? You’ll be dead in a second.
Maldy
Some time ago a new gameplay was published. It shows the beginning of SP campaign and it looks really cool :) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1lDHono9WVA
Fatty
I did see that gameplay. Warning for people who haven’t seen it yet there are quite a few spoilers from the first 40 minutes of SGW 3
Maldy
Well I think that it goes without saying that there are spoilers in the gameplay but maybe you’re right. Watch at your own risk :P
Robert
The best gameplay from Sniper Ghost Warrior 3 so far. This guys know what players want to learn about this game before the premiere.
hooker
There are some really good tips in this gameplay, thank you very much for it. I’l be using them tomorrow :)
DannyB
There’s this cool gameplay with Jess Lebow on yt where they play SGW 3 side quests. That’s a little known video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CMs03iIn980
Andy
I don’t know that guy, but when I saw your post I missread his name so badly xD I think I better won’t write it here but I think you know what I mean xD Apart of that I’m still waiting for the game. It’ll be awesome.
Robert
Great mission. And it’s so different! I was afraind SGW3 might be borin, because it’s about killing people in different locations, but there is no way to acomplish missions doing the same things.
Gounder
I’ve heard that the game world will be so huge that you will rarely visit the same location twice. I mean accept your hide out of course :)))
DannyB
I saw a few gameplays where two different guys were playing the same mission and even those gameplays were different as they chose different tactics. SGW 3 won’t be repetitive at all
hooker
I like this mission. It’s completely different, nothing like other ones including slaughterhouse. I hope it’s at the beginning of the game :)
Andy
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lMrmysqYjcE If you want to get some information about the game, here’s a short interview :) To me the most important is MP release.
Robert
I’m very thankful that CIG constantly hares some gameplays, trailers and answers most interesting questiions. I can’t wait!
Maldy
It’s great to here that the MP mode is a sure thing. First they said that they are thinking about implementing MP but now it’s 100% confirmed
hooker
Thank you very much for this video. I can wat a little longer, but not to much ;) I’m waitin for this game since last year.
Robert
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=44Y6xRdWpt4&t=10s Check out the new trailer. Until now I thought “Brothers” was the best, but this one is even more awesome!
turas88
Agree, “Brothers” was great, but this one is a really masterpiece ! I love these headshots, slow motion animations, it looks great ! Much better than “xrays” in SE4
Will4you
definitely best trailer for SGW3 ! Can’t wait until tomorrow I’ll play this game! For sure, this trailer is a masterpiece!
hooker
Great trailer. I like it very much. I love the part with exploading heads in slow motion ;) Tomorrow!!! We’re be able to play it tomorrow!!!!
turas88
Ok guys, get ready ! Only one week left to SGW3 release day ! Brace yourselves, Sniper is coming ! ;)
baileysbaileysbaileys
it’s tomorrow! i guess i’ll take a day off so i can play all day long
baileysbaileysbaileys
Georgia is a beautiful place, lucky me i have a 50″ TV ultraHD so i can feel the atmosphere so deeply
hooker
I love the mision in slaughterhouse really ;) Until now the best one I’ve see, but I really hope there will be even better in full game.
