It appears that the release date for the highly anticipated STALKER 2: Heart of Chornobyl may have been leaked by Koch Media’s Store. However, since this date has not been confirmed by GSC GameWorld, we strongly suggest taking it with a grain of salt.
As spotted by Andrew Marmo, Plaion (Koch Media’s store) has listed STALKER 2 for a December 1st, 2023 release date.
Plaion/Koch Media Store has listed S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2: Heart of Chornobyl for December 1st 2023 release.
This is most likely accurate as other titles have placeholder dates of December 31st 2023, They have previously leaked dates including Darksiders 2 for Nintendo Switch. pic.twitter.com/GxxCsdFyEo

From the looks of it, this doesn’t appear to be a placeholder date. As Marmo noted, other games have placeholder dates of December 31st. December 1st is also a Friday, which could hint at a legit leak. Not only that, but Plaion had previously leaked the release date of Darksiders 2 for Nintendo Switch.
Again, while this leak could be real, we suggest taking it with a grain of salt.
From what we know, Microsoft and GSC GameWorld will showcase STALKER 2 at Gamescom 2023. Attendees will be able to play a demo of it, and we’ll most likely get a new trailer for it. So, my guess is that this upcoming STALKER 2 trailer will include at the end its actual release date.
STALKER 2 will be using Unreal Engine 5 and promises to feature incredible graphics. You can also find here the game’s preliminary PC requirement.
Lastly, the Plaion page has listed the key features of STALKER 2 that you can find below.

Devs should let us nuke Russia and torture Russian f4ggots.
Putin will be fcked in the a*s soon. I will masturbate to dead Russian soldiers tonight.
Just two more shipments of Bradley’s and Javelins right?
Ukrainian pilots are being trained in Arizona.
If they give them F-35s, Russia is fcked in the a*s.
Screenshot my comment.
how many times have you stupid MSM brainwashed fools said that this and that will save Ukraine. none of them worked out. Ukraine can’t even take back its crucial Zaporizhe Nuclear Power plant.
Don’t talk out of your a*s like low IQ bot that you are. I’ve never said anything about the war other than severe incompetency of rytarded Russians.
However, I promise you that F-35 will dominate Russians. Can’t wait to laugh at your clueless low IQ faces when it happens.
Sounds like you’re getting your stats from your mother’s an*s sir.
Russian casualties are much higher than Ukrainian casualties even by Russian reports.
Can’t expect any better from a low IQ Indian sh*tskin.
based f*k those mutts
Look how “right-wing” downvoted you. I guess alt-right MAGA ziggers are in love with non-white terrorists these days.
So how is your quest to be the most blocked commenter on DSOG
progressing? afaik Fernando Diaz is the only one that blocked me
and I have no idea why but it doesn’t make any difference anyway.
I’m blocked by people I’ve never seen or talked to. I’d say I can’t see 30-50 percent of comments depending on the article. I can do a lot better.
So how is your quest to be the most ignored commenter on DSOG progressing? afaik Fernando Diaz is the only one that put me on ignore and I have no idea why but it doesn’t make any difference anyway.
Congratulations, you have AIDS (from eating too much Oinkraine balls raw)

Fake, but goddamn!
I think Russia already deals with their own bundles of sticks. You do not have to worry about that.
I also got a new date for my order which is a within a week after 1 Dec. They also told me I get this package after the release date.

Nope, you can clearly see that the placeholder date of GOG is December 31st, not December 1st.
