City Interactive working on CryEngine 3-based Sniper: Ghost Warrior sequel

City Interactive has announced what we believe to be its second first-person shooter to use CryEngine 3: a sequel to Sniper: Ghost Warrior. We say "second" because the developer announced last month that it was working with Stuart Black to create an "exciting new story-driven WWII shooter," which doesn't sound like the more modern, stealthy Ghost Warrior. At that time, it also said it had licensed CryEngine 3 for two games.

Producer Michal Sroczynski revealed the plans for Sniper: Ghost Warrior 2 in an interview with Eurogamer.se. He didn't have much else to say about it, except that it will be released on PC, Xbox 360, and PS3. We're kind of hoping for more nouns in the title -- we like the ring of "Sniper: Ghost Warrior Cowboy Boxer Cop Wolfman," ourselves.
