History VideoGame / SniperGhostWarrior

''Sniper: Ghost Warrior'' is a 2010 {{first person shooter}} from City Interactive, following U.S. Army Special Forces troops attempting to bring down the Latin American dictatorship of Isla Trueno. For the most part the game alternates between two characters; Sergeant Tyler Wells, a sniper and Cole Anderson, a Delta Force operator. Wells' sections are largely stealth based and have semi-realistic sniper mechanics including bullet drop and wind adjustment whilst Anderson's sections are traditional open combat with a small team supporting him. It later received an expansion pack entitled ''Second Strike'', depicting the sniper team being sent to another Latin American country to hunt down Isla Truenan remnants.

[[VideoGame/SniperGhostWarrior2 There was a sequel in 2013]] made using the ''Crysis 2'' version of [=CryEngine=], following the further adventures of Cole Anderson. [[VideoGame/SniperGhostWarrior3 A third game in the series was released in 2017]], this time being a ''Far Cry'' style open-world sandbox game, as well as the first game by City Interactive with a AAA level budget. The player takes the role of Marine sniper Jon North, who is sent to Georgia to help battle Georgian Separatists while also attempting to discover the fate of his kidnapped brother, and ends up stumbling into an international conspiracy fueled by mad science. The fourth game, ''[[VideoGame/SniperGhostWarriorContracts Contracts]]'' is set in the harsh terrain of Siberia.

* KnifeNut: Most of the time Wells carries a bunch of throwing knives. Handy for stealth segments (if you can get close enough to use and retrieve them) as they are totally silent and one hit kills.
