Sniper 2 DLC, Siberian Strike
Hot on the heels of last week’s release comes the Siberian Strike campaign, you might wonder if a day after Bioshock releases of the year is a good thing, but lets go with it.
What does excite me about this new campaign is that the focus is more on freedom and allowing you to move around tackling the mission as you see fit. As I have been playing through the game (review incoming) one of my biggest concerns was the ‘shooting gallery’ effect, this looks like it will address it and deliver a more rounded experience.
Now we just need more Multiplayer maps and a better lobby…press release after the break.
SNIPER: GHOST WARRIOR 2 DLC AVAILABLE ON WEDNESDAY MARCH 27th
Single player DLC, Siberian Strike, will launch for Sniper: Ghost Warrior 2 this week.
SYDNEY, Australia — March 25, 2013 — CI Games, a fast-growing international publisher and developer of interactive entertainment, today announced its upcoming DLC.

In the remote abandoned Siberian city of Birsovik, the Russian government established a top secret military installation focused on arms R&D. American intelligence gets word that the facility shifted its focus recently to weapons of mass destruction. A CIA operative, M. Diaz is sent in undercover, posing as lab personnel, to uncover the truth. When he stops sending in reports, a search mission is quickly put together.

Anderson is ordered to locate Diaz’s GPS signal and assess the situation on the ground, then extract any intelligence he may have found.
