A couple of days ago, we informed you about hackers obtaining tens of gigabytes of game material from S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2. And, as you may have guessed, the hackers have leaked a number of WIP footage from this upcoming game.
The following video packs numerous VFX that the game will feature. From what we can see, STALKER 2 will have physics-based scripted sequences. The game will also have various weather effects (most likely for its anomaly traps).
As said, this is WIP footage, so you should not expect much from it. Still, some STALKER 2 fans may find it interesting, which is why we’ve decided to share the video. Moreover, it doesn’t appear to be spoiling anything from the game, so that’s a big plus.
STALKER 2 aims to feature an epic, non-linear story. Furthermore, your choices will influence both short-term consequences and global outcomes. The game will take place inside the Chernobyl exclusion zone, and it will have new locations along with the old ones.
The game will be using Unreal Engine 5 and was originally targeting a 2022 release date. In June 2022, GSC GameWorld announced that the game has been delayed until 2023. Realistically, though, I expect this game to slip into 2024.
Enjoy!

Why would you share this?
because he is a true journalist who can’t be emotionally pressured by bu44hur4 Ukraine fanbois?
yikes
yes. yikes. now go back to your genocide supporting safespace https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/92d8103bd1680ccf4e10e56cad18df5ab96040d01e28769ef0ae9f3486e064af.png
oof not a good look sweetie DSOG is for everyone, not just you!
I wonder who’s the butthurt incel here. Is it people who just read the article, or don’t, or is it vatniks who spew the same bot-style sh*t in every article about stalker? I hope you are below 14 years of age, otherwise I’d ask your parents to cut off your internet access for a week, to make sure you don’t become a school shooter or something.
ok soiboi. now back to your safespace. don’t forget your soy drink
Sorry but they choose this, the devs of Atomic Heart keep their mouths shut about your bs war and you guys coudn’t stop trying to sabotage that game and deny them money or delist from distribution.
Arent some Ukrainians working for Atomic Heart? Its listed on their official site….
I don’t know, but i know that Ukrainians made campaigns to ban this game.
Define: “bs war”? I (my Country) was recently in this situation and when you directly experience it 1st, 2nd and 3rd hand then you only reallize how bad it actually is……. to say: “bs war” is like they wanted. I mean, dont think emotionally…… for Ukrainians and Russians this is one way forward, they both cant go back. You say, stop the weapon delivery or whatever but we all deep down know what will happen, Russia would occupy the whole land, install their puppets (would it be better for economic etc. in future is a different story) but Russia cant say they want the negotiations and claiming its 100% Ukrainian fault because its not. That was an ultimatum, what kind of negotiation is that if you dont make some concession from your part? Remember, Ukraine, after the invasion, during negotiations was ready to give up on NATO…. also, the Minsk agreement WAS violated by BOTH of them if you followed the whole events during 2013 – 2015
It’s because everyone is tired of ugaynians. Your Jewish president is pocketing all the trillions we gave them so far and has the gall to ask for more. True Jew tactic.
Your n@zi Wagner Group is running out of convicts faster than shells. And still hasn’t captured Bakhmut.
i see 1 fresh recruit right here above you
Dude, you really need a reality check, we all saw those pow videos of the ukranian grandpas and teenagers.
Selensky refuses peace talks, when he’s clearly losing. He’s sacrificing his people for another buck.
Another Ruzzian lie
stfu weeb. useful idiot. maybe read some background that is not curated by pink haired antifa femoid journalists? https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/136be18003bf330b3f1e29739ad92103e6fd2ed3a192318fc0d7a2c41018ac1d.jpg
Did you drank the vaccine, disinfectant or whatever man (by Trump)?
Hmm I see some progress…..
In the beginning of war (meaning when the Invasion stared) first were Russians that posted on TikTok, Telegram, VK, usenet and the like how THEY ARE DOING LITERALLY CRIMES AGAINST UKRAINIANS and even without any censorship. Its all over the internet, you can easily find if you WANT, IF YOU DO RESEARCH etc. You fool…….
You forgot that Putin officially “protects” Jews, is against Nazis and the like? Basically the only ones he dont like are the “LGBTQ” and ofc Britain for various history events/reasons (shouldnt mention Americans, the opposite is also true). Basically thats it……. but we saw with Azov and how he exchanged 50 – 100 Ukrainians (including those from Azov) for just a couple of Russians POWs If its really 100% true that those are Nazis and that he is on the right side of history, he woudnt let them go……. btw we can talk all day long about americans and their history and I would agree but cmon, dont be a foot, reallize the whole truth.
Mentally disturbed tinfoil hat wearing nutcases like you should definitely consider killing themselves, removing yourself from the gene pool would be your one and only contribution to this society.
Why not?
any references to Ghost of Keev or the heroes of snake island?
Think they could get Sam Hyde to do the voice for the Ghost? Or the heroes of Snake Island? I mean after all, they are still alive.
Next year it will be Chognobyl because the letter R reminds them too much of Russia
ruZZians are so pathetic they think leaking game footage accomplishes anything.
You really think Russians did this? It’s viral marketing. Ugaynians are the pathetic one. There dieing like 10 to 1 compared to Russia lol.
“There dieing like 10 to 1 compared to Russia lol.”
Haha, stay delusional gopnik.
Jewish comedian Zelenskyy made a joke of Putin the Puny’s Potemkin Army.
Yeah, because you lower conscription age to 16 when you’re winning….
These internet shills coudn’t care less about the Uke citizen fate, need to make it seem like they are winning.
You also ask for more and more when while losing more ammo and armor by the day than any previous army.
I heard some EU c#nt said 100k ukrainians KIA, but not sure the actual proportion, nor do i care. You should do better than to laugh at human tragedy.
You should do better than pretend to care about human lives, especially with all your nazi-like rants about Jews.
lol, i don’t like warmongers like you, if that’s anti-semitic, so be it.
You love peace so much you support the ruZZian nazis. Your “peace” is the “peace” of genocide. Holmodor, like the Holocaust, will never be allowed to happen again. Cope, gopnik.
I support peace, i care about Uke soldiers even more than you who use them as a punching line on your internet shilling. you don’t see me upvoting any r-tard calling for the killing of Uke natzees or whatever, they are as bad as you.
Another ruZZian lie.
Predictable. And what’s with ZZ? Some natze reference? I have to laugh at the schizo propaganda, you should use the commie playbook since you think i’m a natze, why make Russians look cool?
I heard around 1 million russian pidaras chmobiks are fertilised Ukraine ground. Slava ZSU!
I guess that makes the killed Ukranians a-Ok then.
Why fight, when Ukranians and Russians are the same people?
The west fooled you into thinking you are not, how sad.
Divide and conquer it is…
They are not same people. Not even close. Different language, culture and unlike the russian slaves, Ukrainians are free people.
Free to suck off Uncle Sam. Imagine selling your people out to Joe Biden.
Sucking is your tradition, not my.
That`s some insane misunderstanding of history.
My aren’t you …. emotional again today
It’s called consequences. GSC wanted in on the money propaganda, now they face some backlash, all is fair in love and war.
These “consequences” are pathetic, like everything else ruZZian.
You guys flail between saying Putler is a monster that destroyed Ukraine or that they are incompetent and coudn’t accomplish anything. I agree that this isn’t much, but you have to overgeneralize like a propagandist.
so you are pro russia? Why you downvoted me?
Because it triggers you.
It usually has the opposite affect …. Look at Last of Us 2 ….. Record sales and several Game of the Year awards despite all the leaks and attempts to bring it down all they really did was give them a sh*tload of free advertising and put more eyeballs on the product
It had the exact opposite affect than intended …… That’s what happens when you think with your emotions rather than your reason
It wasn’t because of the leaks that the game succeeded, but despite it. I think the first game is among the best in gaming history, completed it multiple times on all difficulties. I thank the leakers for warning me. Never gave the second one a chance.

GSC watching ruSS hackers at Bahmut front
This was stolen from the developers. It shouldn’t even be coupled with the words ‘enjoy’ at all.
Could you suck D any harder? lol. Just don’t watch it. It’s not a story leak. Just some effects.
What has been leaked so far is pretty harmless but the hacking group has said that they would start with this and possibly leak material that could spoil the game if their demands aren’t met. In their own words:
We have a huge amount of materials on S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2, including a full story, cutscenes description, various concept art, global maps and much more. The volume is calculated in tens of gigabytes.
Now, one could argue that gamers can skip looking at the future leaked videos but inevitably gamers will be talking about it on forums and posting screenshots as well.
This is what i say after i torrent some game… lmao
“The game will take place inside the Chernobyl”
ITS CHORNOBYL, or you are pro Putin.
To the morons who downvoted this, so you are pro russia?
kekw
In the name of Ghost of Keeev, thank you for your internet service comrade. Russian letters really hurt our feelings, we are very insecure. We are totally not Russians, just believe me ok?
i struggle to understand why the people who downvoted me upvoted you.
because your post was kinda ambiguous? it’s hard to decide if it was satire or you’re a genocide-denying Oinkraine supporting dumbf*ck brainlet.
But you keep spreading the BS over and over…. ghost of blah blah whatever. Look, there actually was an Ukrainian pilot, had some “actions” but ofcourse nothing to write about too much (like pretty much any pilot, all sides where they were successful) but some dudes created the memes, to pump up the moral for Ukrainians or whatever….. WOW, then some media spread the news too much and whatever, like usually how they sometimes do. JUST WOW……. ofcourse the “Ghost of Keeev” how you call it is just a legend, a lie or whatever. Most people realize it, thank you for pointing out….. another WOW. But tell me, what about those 1. Azov POWs (many) who are Nazis what Russians later released/exchanged, for just couple of Russian POWs? 2. What about those TWO “The Sims” games, lost in translatation aka the early 80/90s Japanase video game translatation syndrome. 3. What about fake video/audio material of Bio labs in Ukraine where they posted/stealed some pictures which were originally posted in public by Slovenians which had nothing to do with the Bio-labs or whatever they say/claim is there, in Ukraine. 4. What about how recently Wagner posted a photoshoped picture where they claim that they destroyed a western tank (the 1st of the newest “batch”), the original picture is couple of years ago old which has nothing to do with 2022 onwards. 5. Lets talk about banned Russian languange…. again a lie because actually Ukraine started to really ban he languages ONLY IN SOME TOWS, SOME REGIONS after the 2022 invasion, 3-4 months later or whatever. Prior to that, before 2022, they made the Ukrainian language the officially language in institutions etc. and it had nothing do do with banning Russian language or any other directly. Also, why did Ukrainians destroyed some of the monuments but only after the invasion in 2022? Why not during 2014 or how Putin says, it could be any random year like 2010, 2004, 1997 or whatever because the Russian government claims that it all started in late 80s, early 90s where Ukrainians positioned themselves against Russians which is total BS if you know the whole events around 80/90s. Not to talk about other lies they spread….. we can talk about americans and their history (I would name/say more bad things, you wouldn even possible know) but cmon, dont be a fool and see the whole picrure and truth, without any emotions.

Thanks for the tip.
That dog stuff is likely a QTE, f*k Metro for even using that cancer.
No video
John said he woudn’t post leaked material, probably flip flopped twice or the video got taken down.
It’s March and vatniks still crying about Stalker lmao

Wrong article
Even the name got mutated with the radiation

This looks amazing. Can’t wait to play this game
Glory to Ukraine. This is amazing that they defended themselves with so little support like HIMARS, Javelin. We need support them more so they can win war

>HIMARS, Javelin
What kind of trolling is this?
What kind of invisible American army (and NATO soldiers from EU) is fighting against Russian directly in Ukraine?
HA! Gotcha!!!!
I didnt even tried….
Now, real talk…… thinking logically, if NATO/USA is really directly involved, Russians wouldnt have a ZERO chance really, you really think this is the purest NATO/USA? Ukrainians in this position, begging for waepons all the time, late weapon delivery, not the best rockets (range etc), not the best weapons, not learned do deal with western weapons, not learned and expected Iranians drones, dont learned how to use western tanks or whatever is like they fight with one leg, one and half an eye, half a brain and statistically speaking if we talk just “NUMBERS” they are doing pretty much well against the 2nd army in world, thats just a deniable fact if you think about it emotionless. Ukraine is not even top 20, today is even worse than that becuse its hurting them economically, losing some soldiers (other side too ofc but yah), also 100 thousands deaths (both sides, maybe now up to 200K deaths=one side) is one thing, but wounded ones which could be easily MUUUCH higher than deaths, speaking up to 2 – 5 times higher, history tells and proves again again (ofc both sides), and how most of the time the “defenders” are losing less soldiers and its statistically, mathematically and logically true (best example Bakhmut).
I mean, im not some “dumbo” who predicts the war outcome, Ukraine has still much chances to lose this war, alongside Europe, even little USA but lets be real about the whole war situation. I also realize the whole propaganda which is goin on, even western and some lies here and there….. sure, but every side does this all the time.

Little support lol… Why should i support them ? Get your propaganda to a proper place, there are people who don’t give a fck about Ukraine
You do realize “dont give khm about” and pointing fingers at one side only is not the same thing as thinking there is only one to blame and the other side is/was always right?
Every side is more and less to blame……. same goes for all of them pretty much, be it americans, russians, ukrainians or whatever. All of them did terrible things and stupid things, bloody things, especially those big two, three or four (we all know who they are). I know who didnt also gave a fu** back then, Slovenians, even if they were on the same side as say Croatians but if Croatia/BiH failed to win, they would face the same fate, for sure. Today its Moldova, Poland and the like, Finland also if Ukraine ultimately fails.

The HIMARS systems we gave them aren’t even the good stuff, it’s mainly ones that are due to be decommissioned in a couple of years anyway. Same for the munitions, it’s all the short range lower grade old stuff we had sitting around. If we gave the the new upgraded versions with the full weapons package the Krymsky Bridge would be on the sea floor
My brother recommended I might like this web site. He was totally right. This post actually made my day. You cann’t imagine just how much time I had spent for this information! Thanks!
Chornobyl is name of city in Ukraine with nuclear disaster. On HBO you can watch movie about Chornobyl disaster
Where’s the video? Did you remove it?
So, soaked in communist propaganda, Russian hackers blackmailed the GSC because… they stole a 6-minute patchwork of loosely connected simulations in a state so raw that even the Russian working class wouldn’t eat it?
Could you edit your post to be readable?
Slava Ukraine, will buy a few copies of the game to gift to friends at full price just to spite katzap scum.
This will only help the russian economy once kiev is taken. Kek.
Much has change since the series humble beginnings, where you play as a brainwashed amnesiac who kills Ukrainian soldiers in order to advance the main quest (you can sneak but why bother, it’s hard as hell to sneak in the game).
Jesus! What do they have against Dog’s! lol….
