Stalker 2: Heart of Chornobyl gets quietly pushed to an early 2024 release

Stalker 2: Heart of Chornobyl has been delayed out of 2023 into early 2024, according to developer GSC Game World.

In the latest fact sheet from GSC Game World about its upcoming shooter, a section on distribution notes that the game "releases on PC and Xbox Series X/S in Q1 2024." It was originally expected to release some time in 2023 after having been delayed due to Russia's ongoing invasion of Ukraine. The release date has been up in the air until recently, with there being some speculation that it would be releasing early December. While the fact sheet doesn't offer a specific release date, a window of Q1 does generally imply somewhere between January and March 2024, though as always with game development that could easily change.

On top of the delay, the fact sheet highlights some key points about the game, noting its combined first-person shooter, immersive sim, and horror genres, a "branching cinematic story that unfolds in the setting of a local post-apocalyptic dark science fiction landscape," and "benchmark-setting graphics powered by the Unreal Engine 5."
