STALKER 2: Heart of Chornobyl Delayed Again

STALKER 2: Heart of Chornobyl, the eagerly awaited sequel from Ukrainian developer GSC Game World, has been delayed again to September 5, 2024. This follows a series of setbacks and mixed reactions to its initial public showcase.

In a candid announcement, the studio acknowledged the feedback from fans, both positive and critical. They emphasized the game's faithful adherence to the STALKER series' core elements - the atmosphere, hardcore style, and challenging environment - while also admitting the need for additional technical polishing.

The development process, described as challenging, originally aimed for a Q1 2024 release. However, the team recognized technical flaws that didn't meet their standards for the final product, leading to the decision to delay the game for further refinements.
