Game infoSilent Scope is an arcade game that puts the player in the shoes of a sniper during a series of terrorist incidents. The game uses a rifle that is mounted on the console, requiring players to physically alter their position in order to shoot accurately. In addition, the rifle's scope displays a close-up view of a small portion of the screen, representing the sniper's long-range view of the area where the rifle is pointed.
The game spawned three sequels: Silent Scope II, Silent Scope 3, Silent Scope EX which was released only on arcade systems and a version for the Game Boy Advance. A port has been released for the iPhone OS. The game was offered for a $.99 promotion from August 27 to August 29, 2009 on the App Store.
A Reboot of the series was in development at Day 1 Studios, but Konami cancelled it at the end of 2011. The game was a Stealth Third Person Shooter and was in development for PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360. Konami is developing a new Arcade game of the series, titled "Silent Scope: Bone Eater". The game will be released in the Arcades in 2014 in Japan.
