Stalker 2 Reveals Thrilling Survival Gameplay In New Trailer

Expert Verified By

New Gameplay Looks Stunning!

Stalker 2: Heart of Chornobyl was recently pushed back to next year. Following much anticipation, the developers have brought a playable build to Gamescom 2023, providing a small glimpse of the unsettling survival horror game.

In addition to a hands-on demo, Gamescom 2023 also brings new footage of Stalker 2: Heart of Chornobyl with the Bolts and Bullets trailer.

Why it matters: The Stalker franchise has been dormant for over a decade, leading to excitement for a new revival from millions of fans.

The trailer shows a more extensive look at Stalker 2: Heart of Chornobyl and marks the first major showing from the developer in several months.

With a release window targeting Q1 2024, the FPS title is far along in development, and this is reflected in the footage, which depicts a polished look at the threats awaiting players in Chornobyl.

Like previous footage, the latest trailer does not fail to impress with its visuals. Stalker 2: Heart of Chornobyl is powered by Unreal Engine 5, and GSC Game World has put the engine to good use.

Unreal Engine 5 powers the haunting Chornobyl Exclusion Zone with stunning lighting and a bone-chilling atmosphere. The footage also provides a new look at the first-person shooting mechanics.

Over the course of the trailer, the player is seen using different weapons like pistols and rifles, with each showing distinct recoil patterns and attachments like silencers.

GSC Game World also reiterates the supernatural elements featured in Stalker 2: Heart of Chornobyl, hinting at a much greater mystery in the disturbing exclusion zone.

Stalker 2: Heart of Chornobyl is among the biggest titles of 2024. The studio has faced various challenges through development, but GSC Game World has prevailed without compromising the latest entry in the Stalker franchise.

This has earned the respect of the entire gaming industry, with millions of fans and critics rooting for the developer’s latest project.
