Sniper Ghost Warrior 2 eGuide Essentials Weapons

Weapons

Your sniper rifle is your best friend and best protection from an early grave. Not all weapons are created equal, however, so you’ll want to experiment with the various tech until you’re satisfied that you have just the right fit.

Besides the standard sniper rifles that you begin with on each mission, there are some that can only be unlocked through gameplay. The MSR unlocks if you collect all the secrets in Act 1, the SVD Dragunov unlocks if you collect all the secrets in Act 2, and the M200 Intervention unlocks if you collect all the secrets in Act 3.

Earn 20 medals by finishing the game on Medium difficulty and you unlock the Barret XM500; earn 30 medals by finishing the game on Expert difficulty and you unlock the M24. The MK14 EBR, DSR-50, VSS Vintorez, and the AW50 can all be unlocked with DLC (downloadable content).
