STALKER 2: Delayed (Again), December 2022 Release Date
Due to different difficulties such as its disagreement with NFTs or rumors that the sequel to one of the most beloved cult works by PC players will be delayed until the following fall, STALKER 2 has taken over the news of video game information in recent weeks.
This speculation has proven to be accurate, as the game’s producers, GSC Game World, officially stated just recently that STALKER 2 will be postponed until December 8, approximately 7 months after its original release date, which was set for April 28.

“These additional seven months of development are needed to fulfill our vision and achieve the desired state of the game.
S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2 is the biggest project in the history of GSC, and it requires thorough testing and polishing.
We are convinced that development should take as long as necessary, especially in the case of such a project. This decision is not an easy one, but we are doing the best possible to deliver you a game that can live up to the expectations.”

STALKER 2
- The survival mechanisms (which were not as widespread at the time as they are now) and the weather oddities produced by the nuclear disaster were two of the aspects that won over fans of the first STALKER.
- Both traits will be present in STALKER 2, and hunger, for instance, can impact our capabilities, while not sleeping causes our vision to deteriorate noticeably.
- On December 8th, 2022, S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2: Heart of Chernobyl will be released for Xbox Series X/S and Windows PC. The game will also be available on Xbox Game Pass.
