The latest trailer of the upcoming "Sniper: Ghost Warrior 3" open-world first-person tactical shooter game has been released, and it proves just how "dangerous" a Sniper could get in the game.

The graphic trailer, which was recently dropped by CI Games, shows playable character Jonathan North's capabilities when bringing down his enemies.

Based on the trailer, the American Marine Captain can opt to stab his adversary or break their faces using his knees in close range. He can also choose to blow up his enemies' heads using the exploding barrels, using his excellent sniping skills and shoot them with armor-piercing bullets, or even run them down with his automobile of choice.

The third installment of the "Sniper: Ghost Warrior" video game franchise was first announced in December 2014. It was considered the very first game from the series to have an AAA production effort to match the commercial success of its first two games.

"'The Sniper: Ghost Warrior' franchise is one of the most popular in the CI Games portfolio with over 5.5 million copies sold, so we're investing a significant amount of effort into the third installment," CI Games CEO Marek Tyminski said in a press release during the game's launch. "We're fully committed to creating a AAA franchise that gamers can rely on for the ultimate first-person sniper experience."

The game will center on Jon's mission in the war-stricken country of Georgia, where he needs to find the whereabouts of the intruder and its legion of supporters who is causing grief and chaos in the place and eliminate it so he can stop the breakout of another Cold War in the country.

The upcoming open-world first-person tactical shooter game is expected to be released on PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC on Tuesday, April 25.
