S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2: Heart of Chornobyl to Release Globally on November 20

The long-awaited sequel from Ukrainian studio GSC Game World launches without multiplayer, focusing on solo gameplay experience.

S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2 will be available on Xbox and PC platforms, including Steam, Epic Games Store, and Game Pass, with no early access for premium editions.
The game, set in the Chernobyl Exclusion Zone, has been in development since 2010 and faced delays due to the Russian invasion of Ukraine.
GSC Game World has removed Russian language support and altered text labels to Ukrainian, reflecting the studio's stance amid ongoing conflict.
Multiplayer features will not be included at launch to preserve the intense, solitary atmosphere that defines the S.T.A.L.K.E.R. series.
Pre-order bonuses include exclusive in-game content, with five different editions offering various digital and physical extras.
