CI Games has released the first patch and some new free content for Sniper Ghost Warrior Contracts. The free DLC packs consist of the Summer’s Nostalgia and Positive Vibes Weapon Skin Packs (8 different skins in total). Moreover, the KELL-T 12 gauge semi-automatic shotgun is also available now in the game.

On the other hand, the first patch for Sniper Ghost Warrior Contracts fixes a number of crashes. Furthermore, it turns off fast travel while there is active bounty, and it improves mouse pointer in menu. It also fixes ambient audio after hiding in box.

This first patch also adds loot marker on bounty body and pop-up info when you see jammer for the first time. It also enables grass vegetation pierceability, something that will definitely please a number of players.

As always, Steam will download this new free content and patch for the game. Below you can also find the complete changelog for this first update.
