Press release:
London, 23rd July 2026 – PQube and developer Denki today announced that their wholesome 3D hidden object game, Sniper Dan, will launch digitally on 17th September 2026 on PC (via Steam®), PlayStation® 5, XBOX Series X|S and Nintendo Switch™, alongside a physical PlayStation® 5 release. To celebrate the announcement, a charming new Release Date Trailer offers a fresh look at some of the eccentric jobs available for players to tackle in Clumsy County.

In Sniper Dan, players step into the shoes of handyman Dan, armed with a trusty sniper rifle and a keen eye for precision. Dan isn’t out to hurt anyone; he uses his remarkable aim for good, getting the residents of Clumsy County out of all sorts of sticky situations!

As players explore colourful locales, they need to carefully scope out the scene, spot the problem, and shoot the solution. From fixing rusty taps, machines behaving badly, and even stopping a thieving pelican, there are plenty of silly situations and whimsical jobs for players to take on. Between jobs, they can upgrade their rifle and decorate their office, before taking on additional game modes, including Time Attack, Ammo Hunt and Snapshot Mode!

PQube also revealed that Sniper Dan will be making its way to gamescom 2026, hand-picked by Nintendo as one of eight titles to feature in their area on the Indie Arena Booth. Players visiting the show can get hands-on with a Nintendo Switch demo, allowing them to experience the wholesome chaos on console for the first time.
