Some of the neat gadgets you have at your disposal help with this, with some helping you sneak around and others wiping out enemies with ease. For the most part, you’ll want to be stealthy where possible, with scouting out enemies and plotting out the best route to take proving important. Of course, the bulk of this comes down to shooting from afar with the game’s realistic and satisfying sniping mechanics, but there are also times when you’ll get up close and personal with the likes of machine guns, pistols, shotguns, or even a crossbow. Missions are split over individual regions that are pretty expansive, with the player able to approach objective and targets in different ways. It’s clear then that Sniper Ghost Warrior: Contracts 2’s performance on the PlayStation 5 is mighty impressive, with the work put in during the last three months paying off big time. “Whether you’re moving around, shooting, or even getting shot at, you’ll feel the sensation of it within your controller.” Again, it’s something I could appreciate coming from the PlayStation 4 version of the game, but it wasn’t quite as instant as the loading times seen in some other recent releases on the platform.
