IGN : Find out more about the greatly anticipated sequel, STALKER 2: Heart of Chornobyl, with game director and CEO at GSC Game World Evgeniy Grygorovych. In this new Stalker 2 interview from gamescom 2023, Grygorovych details the challenges of developing during the war in Ukraine and how the team is doing. He also tells us more about STALKER 2’s development and highlights the importance of creating a realistic recreation of Chernobyl. In STALKER 2, The Chornobyl Exclusion Zone has changed dramatically after the second massive explosion in 2006. Warring factions, hostile mutants, and deadly anomalies make it challenging to survive. However, STALKERS now enter and roam the zone at their own risk to retrieve valuable artifacts and search for the truth concealed at the Heart of Chornobyl. STALKER 2: Heart of Chornobyl is coming to PC and Xbox Series X/S in December 2023.
Stalker 2: Heart of Chornobyl and The Invincible are both upcoming sci-fi games that've been teasing fans for quite a while, and we had a chance to try both at TGS 2023 this year!
TechRaptor's S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2: Heart of Chornobyl preview explores the Zone through a build that feels still rough but shows promise.
The zone is a very dangerous place. You never know where an anomaly will tear you apart, you'll end up with an overgrown rat on your neck, or someone will ambush you and take everything you have in your pockets.
That was a powerful and emotional interview!
By living in "safe" in places that we are, we can´t even imagine how´s to live day by day trying to not think that you, your loved ones and all the work and dedication put in your work could disappear in a second.
I´m glad those developers found hope, strength and even enjoyment and happiness while developing S.T.A.L.K.E.R 2.
Here´s hoping for their game to deliver and find great success among all platforms.
