12. Sniper: Ghost Warrior 3 (2016)

Sniper Ghost Warrior 3 - Trailer

Developer: CI Games

Genre: Action, stealth

Themes: Modern-day snipers, exploration

You like the idea of a sniper, but history lessons are not your thing? Well, jump into the boots of a modern sniper, deployed in the middle of an Eastern European conflict where warring factions collide. And you can even use drones. Cool, right?


Fly my pretty, fly!

With the help of different gadgets (such as the aforementioned scouting drone) you will traverse open world levels that let you approach your objectives in several ways. Gather intel, position yourself for precise sniping, or just try to blow everything up before you are killed. You will find you can even do a little parkour to help you clear objectives.


No clue why everyone leaves iridescent footprints, though. Doesn’t seem healthy.

Obviously if the game is called “Sniper” it will have snipers, but this time around, you can actually upgrade and customize your weapons, with each part being assembled at the end into one lethal instrument. You’ll also have knives, handguns and machineguns, if you ever get tired with sniping. Even your drone has the possibility of being repaired, upgraded or retrofitted in order to accomplish certain specific tasks. So, lots of choices, people.

With the game’s creative director being an actual military veteran, and with an expanded budget compared to its predecessors, expect it to be quite intense.

13. Assassin’s Creed Chronicles: China

Assassin’s Creed Chronicles: China Launch Trailer [US]

Developer: Climax Studios

Genre: Action, adventure, platformer

Theme: Parkour assassins in historical settings

As the last of the Chinese Assassins, you must murder the hell out of those who have wronged you, and teach them why it is a bad idea to mess with a professional and ancient order of parkour master killers.


Take that, gravity!

In this 2D side scroller with 3D elements, you must traverse the stages with the familiar moves of the series, all while mixing and matching combat, stealth and platforming. No major plot innovations here, but the gripping gameplay and stylish visuals make for an enjoyable game that will keep you entertained.


That’s not very zen of you, attacking from behind.

As part of a series of smaller games, China gives us a refreshing change of pace in the franchise, while still retaining the feel and story of the main titles. All in all, a great little game to check out.
