During today's Xbox and Bethesda Games Showcase, GSC Game World gave everyone our first look at STALKER 2 gameplay! The release date is set for April 28, 2022, but will be coming first to Xbox platforms (and PC) first.
The official fact sheet of STALKER 2 reveals that the game has been delayed again and will launch in Q1 2024 for PC and Xbox Series S|X.
Right?! August and September are absolutely stacked. Ill be working through BG3 until Q1 2024 at this rate anyway.
Environments so gorgeous you'll forget you're in a supernatural hellscape.
I don't think it makes it to 60 either. It won't kill the experience though imo it looks damn good to
It absolutely should hit 60 on Series X.
If they come out and announce 4k/30 it’ll be hugely disappointing for “the worlds most powerful console”.
Great that they’re continuing to release updates in spite their nation’s plight. Fingers crossed for a 2023 release.
In memory of fallen heroes.The new trailer of S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2: Heart of Chornobyl is here.
Same, looks absolutely stunning but glad they’re just the old school inventory. Great to see they’re in track for a 2023 release date - hats off to GSC keeping development going through the war.
All I know is on PC the stuttering from Unreal Engine 4 better not be present in this game using UE5, or I will pass on this game. I wouldn't take it for free, if issues like that are present.
Big respect to the devs, this game looks great overall. Still hoping they will improve the graphics because it is still looks current gen.
I would think if it looked “current gen” that’d be a good thing. Or did you mean last gen?
@rep
What are you on about pal, it's one of the best looking games I've ever seen 😂😂
2023 is surprising actually. The last I heard it got delayed indefinitely.
Hopefully it still makes it out this year.
STALKER 2 unlikely next year ....
and given the state the studio's going through right now, I don't want it next year.
Let them settle and work on it undisturbed and release the much awaited sequel in 2024 or even 2025 without any unnecessary rush.
I just want the game to be good. Not another rushed game to meet a deadline.
This is STALKER we're talking about ...
Woah that gun was slick.
Anomalies were trippy back then and still are in this. Looking great.
This actually looked really good. I haven't played Stalker in forever, and what they showed didn't really look like the mechanics from the old games (inventory management wasn't shown, bleed out, etc...). Gameplay looks like Call of Duty Horror, but if they bring the other elements of Stalker into it, this could be special.
Never played stalker before but I’m interested. Lots of games I would have bought on my PS5 if they would have come on there first. Now with game pass I won’t have to. Don’t know who loses in this scenario, the dev that would have got full price, or the gaming community as a whole. Only one I’m sure is winning in this deal is my pocket.
I was worried, being "STALKER 2" had experienced development hell for over a decade; but I like what I saw, and it seems GSC is doing good work.
Definitely one of my most anticipated games in the works.
The game looks great, but timed exclusivity? C'mon MS you've been do so well recently, but these tactics go against everything MS is supposedly striving for. Anyone, anywhere, anytime. Don't be petty. Exclusive first party okay, if you must, but meaningless timed exclusives? Me not like
