Put away your telescopic sights and holster your sidearms; Sniper: Ghost Warrior 3 has been delayed three weeks to April 25th, 2017.

Citing feedback from the Beta, Marek Tyminski, CEO of developer CI Games, said that “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.

A reasonable approach, if anything. This brings to mind one of Shigeru Miyamoto’s more infamous quotes: “A delayed game is eventually good, but a rushed game is forever bad.” We’ll see if this holds true for Sniper: Ghost Warrior 3 on April 25th.


Official Press Release

WARSAW, Poland (March 6, 2017) — CI Games, creators of the Sniper Ghost Warrior and Lords of the Fallen series of games, has announced that Sniper Ghost Warrior 3 will be delayed until Tuesday, April 25, 2017.

After some internal discussion with the development team, a decision was made to delay the release three more weeks to complete some final implementations based on feedback CI Games received during the beta.

We’ve worked tirelessly creating a whole new Sniper Ghost Warrior experience set in an ambitiously crafted open world new to the series,” said 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.”

Sniper Ghost Warrior 3 tells the story of brotherhood, faith and betrayal in the most complete sniper experience ever. Take the role of an American sniper named Jonathan North, who is dropped into enemy territory in northern Georgia, nearby Russian borders. Explore large open-world maps with dynamic weather and a day and night cycle that actually impacts play and decisions. Customize weapon equipment, accessories, vehicles and a drone, and utilize the three pillars of gameplay to your liking: Sniper, Ghost and Warrior.

Sniper Ghost Warrior 3 launches on the PlayStation®4 system, Xbox One and Windows PC on April 25, 2017.

I liked the beta tests and if the game devs need more time to fix all the minor bugs I don't mind. I've been waiting for this game for a long time so additional 3 weeks are not that much for me

I personally don't mind delays, as long as they are for the proper reasons, anything is better then released an unfinished game... cough 90% of every game the last few years..., let that cook in the oven a bit more, it would be far more delicious, nobody wants the taste of shit in their mouth.

Rather a delay than Mass Effect Andromeda
