Developer CI Games just announced that the PS5 version of the sniper simulator is finally being delayed. It will not be in June when it sees the light, but ” later in 2021 “, without specifying any specific date.
The motives? There appear to be a number of bugs with the game on Sony’s next-gen machine. ” Unforeseen technical problems discovered in the weeks leading up to launch,” has been the statement from the studio.
However, not all bad news. As a compensation for the delay on PS5, CI Games has decided to release a big update for free for all versions. This supposes the introduction of a new and extensive map, as well as new contracts to be made. It is currently in the development phase.
The thing does not end here. Holders of both a physical and digital copy of Sniper Ghost Warrior Contracts 2 for PS4 will now receive the PS5 upgrade at no cost . PS5 users will benefit from a patch that will allow the PS4 version to be played in 4K resolution, although it will not arrive at launch.
The native game on the new console will have its own 4K, improved textures and effects , as well as faster load times. “We couldn’t have anticipated these problems,” says CI Games Executive Producer Tobias Heussner.
“However, we would like to assure our players that our highly experienced, professional and dedicated team is working hard with the platform owner and engine supplier to resolve issues as soon as possible, to ensure that we can bring the community from PlayStation 5 to the best caliber sniper game you were waiting for “
Meanwhile, the rest of the versions, that is, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Xbox Series and PC will arrive on the scheduled day.
