The story will be told in a non-linear fashion, which could potentially offer more insight into the game's take on the Chornobyl Exclusion Zone. It also promises a branching story with loads of different endings based on your choices, and that its open-world will be one of the biggest to date. The monsters and factions inside the zone will interact with each other in a simulated living world, and the studio claims events will be happening constantly, whether or not you're there to witness them.
GSC Game World explained how you play as a titular Stalker-a bounty hunter who delves into the contaminated zone looking for treasure and secrets. Stalker 2 will see players once again taking on the role of a gas mask-wearing, rat-munching survivor in and around the Chornobyl Exclusion Zone, the site of the infamous 1986 catastrophe that has caused suffering for generations of people who were exposed to the nuclear reactor's effects.

Following a small teaser by way of a single screenshot in the spring of 2020, the game got a full-fledged announcement during the Xbox Games Showcase that year, which took place as part of an elongated E3 replacement series of online presentations in the earlier months of the COVID-19 pandemic. A fourth game, set to revive the series' use of numbered entries, was once planned for 2011 but was canceled in 2012 due to a lack of funding.įor years, the numbered mainline sequel seemed to have evaporated, but it made a resurgence in 2018 when Stalker 2 was re-announced.

A PC exclusive back then, the game spawned two follow-ups in quick succession, first in 2008 and then 2009. Stalker 2 is the long-awaited mainline sequel to the cult classic original Stalker: Shadow of Chornobyl from 2007. While we wait for the game's launch, here's everything we know so far about the once troubled, now promising genre-bender. Fans of the original post-nuclear fallout survival-horror/shooter hybrid may be eagerly awaiting this gorgeous-looking sequel from GSC Game World, especially given that it was first announced (and even canceled) a decade ago. Stalker 2: Heart of Chernobyl has been in development for a long time, and that process continues into 2023. After that, we may see the game head to other console platforms, though a Switch version seems unlikely (unless by way of a cloud edition) due to the game's demanding specs and it being a current-gen exclusive. Currently, a PlayStation launch has not yet been announced, but a leak seems to suggest the game will be a timed-exclusive on Xbox consoles for three months. It will also launch on Xbox Game Pass on day one for both console and PC subscribers. Stalker 2 will launch on PC and Xbox Series X|S. As you might've noticed, the game's title was also slightly changed to reflect the Ukrainian spelling of "Chornobyl." This video focused largely on the team at GSC Game World, as you can see for yourself below. Given it once was scheduled for 2021, it's possible that the team is not far off from completion, even amid a turbulent situation such as real-life war.įollowing the breakout of the war, Xbox put out a trailer in support of development teams working in Ukraine and sometimes quite literally the line of fire. As a result, the game is currently without a release date.
Since then, the development team has been directly affected by the Russian invasion of Ukraine, and development persists, but understandably at a hampered pace.
Stalker 2 was later dated for April 28, 2022, but that too has come to pass. Stalker 2: Heart of Chornobyl was previously slated for a 2021 release, but obviously that's come and gone. Stalker 2: Heart of Chornobyl has been in development for a long time, and that process continues into 2023.
