GSC Game World Studio announces that the development of STALKER 2 resumed. Following the outbreak of the Ukrainian conflict, the programming had to be interrupted, since GSC is located in this country. An official press release had promised a recovery as soon as “Ukraine’s victory“, and of course, everything was done to ensure the safety of the developers.

No information on this subject has been revealed to date, but to keep fans waiting, the studio has clarified the game’s difficulty modes:
