After confirming its development and launch on Xbox consoles, the long-awaited sequel to STALKER opened the door to see the light this year on PC and Xbox. This presentation, in which it was confirmed as an exclusive game on Microsoft consoles, is one of the great titles that, for now, maintains its launch forecast for the current 2021. From the study, GSC Game World, new information has been given ensuring that STALKER 2 will have a multitude of endings and, also, that they are evaluating the option of support mods on Xbox consoles.
Until today, the information about STALKER 2 is not very extensive. We hardly know a few details about this sequel, and they are largely focused on the graphics engine, Unreal Engine. His latest trailer showing the game’s engine left many users speechless, as STALKER 2 will seek to break all the schemes by making the most of the most powerful hardware.
But far from attending now to the demand to see more gameplay, the public relations manager Zakhar Bocharov has come on stage with some statements that expose some interesting options. The most interesting thing may be that STALKER 2 will have a multitude of endings, thus opening the door to a solid adventure with decisions that can alter the course of it and condition that end. It is not something totally new, but knowing the intensity and diversity that this first-person shooter offers in an open world, curiosity is triggered by this confirmation.
And around that open world, an improved AI engine has been exposed, as Bocharov argues that the ‘A-Life’ simulation system, it will be “More meticulous and more detailed.” The NPCs will not only interact with us, pointing to the interaction that can occur between enemies and wildlife. As he says, this interaction can happen without the player being in the area, trying to give a dynamism that could alter the course of events. Animals fighting for territory or attacking an enemy soldier, are things that are can be found in STALKER 2.
To this we must add that STALKER 2 will not have a linear plot, and there are many conditions that he wants to evaluate in order to diversify, both the action and the conclusion of the game and that is why which makes it clear that STALKER 2 will have a multitude of endings. To this information, which is not surprising, but if it matters to be confirmed, the confirmation of support to the mods community is added. It is something that in the case of PC is not surprising either, but given that they are favorable to this type of modifications, they are evaluating that it can also be carried out in the console version. Bocharov makes it clear that, although they have not decided yet, right now they are evaluating the option to support mods in the Xbox version.
STALKER 2 will feature Ray Tracing on Xbox Series X and could hit 120 fps
What he has not revealed, nor has he wanted to give any clue, is about the state of development in relation to its alleged launch in 2021. For now, the plan maintains that STALKER 2 arrives sometime this year on both Xbox Series X / S and PC. We will await that confirmation that ratifies this launch for this year.
