S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2: Heart of Chornobyl Demands High Specs Ahead of Release

The anticipated game requires substantial hardware upgrades, with a hefty 160GB storage and increased RAM needs.

The game is set to launch on November 20, 2024, for PC and Xbox Series S|X, with pre-downloads available for Xbox Game Pass subscribers.
Updated system requirements reveal a 160GB SSD storage need and a minimum of 16GB RAM, doubling the previous RAM requirement.
Players aiming for high performance, such as 4K at 60 fps, will need top-tier hardware, including 32GB of RAM and advanced GPUs.
The game supports Nvidia DLSS and AMD FSR 3.1 for upscaling, though it lacks hardware ray tracing effects at launch.
STALKER 2 will be available on multiple digital platforms, but there is no current release planned for PS5.
