Tyminski continued by stating that CI Games next game would be announced 'without any tag attached'. Instead we spent too much effort trying to catch up with other AAA titles in terms of their production values and features. By positioning the game in a AAA category, it took us away from what we could have done great.

We simply made the wrong math considering the size of our team and the originally given timeframe. 'When we began development of SGW3, we decided on such a relatively large scale of the game with its open world that now we realise it was just too ambitious versus what we could have been able to deliver in any reasonable amount of time. 'We've learned a lot as a team over the course of development for Sniper Ghost Warrior 3, much of which I believe has shaped the talented individuals within CI Games and the entire studio for the better,' CEO Marek Tyminski explained. Since the finished game garnered less-than-impressive critical reviews, CI Games has released a statement acknowledging that a AAA experience isn't exactly what the studio should have aimed for. Sniper Ghost Warrior 3 was supposed to introduce open-world gameplay to a series traditionally known for its linear, tactical gameplay. CI Games admitted it should have focused on tactical shooting over open-world gameplay.
