GSC Game World has released a new trailer for the highly anticipated Stalker 2: Heart of Chornobyl, showcasing the evolved and hazardous Zone around the Chornobyl Nuclear Power Plant. Aptly named 'Strider', the trailer gives future players a glimpse into the changes in the environment since the previous installment of the series. The trailer highlights the atmospheric world players can expect to navigate, filled with mutations resulting from radiation exposure.

The development journey for Stalker 2 has been notably challenging due to the onset of the Russian invasion while the studio was based in Ukraine. Now, relocated to the Czech Republic, GSC Game World is on track to release the game in Q1 2024. Initially expected to launch earlier, the first-person shooter will come to PC (available on Steam and Epic Games Store), Xbox Series X, and Xbox Series S, and will also be accessible on Xbox Game Pass from day one.

Fans of the series and newcomers alike are eagerly anticipating the survival horror experience set in the post-apocalyptic wasteland. With its release on multiple platforms and inclusion on Xbox Game Pass, Stalker 2: Heart of Chornobyl is poised to engage a wide audience of gamers looking for intense action and a rich, immersive world.
