Perhaps more importantly, GSC Game World has also provided an updated on the state of the STALKER 2 development team following Russia’s brutal invasion of Ukraine. There were rumors GSC Game World was looking to relocate a portion of its team from the Ukrainian capital of Kyiv to Prague, and the update seems to confirm many of them have moved. That said, not everyone on the team was able or willing to leave their homes. The video update shows GSC devs continuing to work on STALKER 2 under the threat of air raids, creating makeshift offices in bathrooms and cramped hallways. Some have also joined the fight, volunteering to help civilians or enlisting in the Ukrainian Armed Forces. It’s an often-moving video, and you can’t help but admire GSC for continuing to work on their passion project under the most trying of circumstances. You can watch the GSC Game World developer update below (warning, some imagery may be disturbing).
STALKER 2: Heart of Chornobyl is coming to PC and Xbox Series X/S sometime in 2023. We here at Wccftech hope for a peaceful resolution to the conflict and the safety of all Ukrainian citizens.
