The COD Sniper, primarily associated with the Call of Duty franchise, isn't a singular, defined character with a consistent backstory across all games. Instead, the role of the sniper is a player archetype or a specific playable operator within the various installments.

Players typically assume the role of a sniper in campaign missions or multiplayer modes, utilizing long-range rifles and tactical positioning. The core focus is precision and eliminating targets from a distance.

Specific characters identified as snipers appear in various Call of Duty titles. One notable example is Lieutenant Simon "Ghost" Riley, who although not explicitly a dedicated sniper, is known for his sniping abilities and covert operations. Ghost appears in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 (2009) and other related games. However, the franchise emphasizes player-driven sniping experiences, rather than a fixed character.
