Who would have thought that in the midst of this great global epidemic we would be blessed by the first Stalker 2 screenshot?
Stalker 2 was announced a while back. However, not a lot of information regarding it was released. That changes now, and we get out very first look at the game. As you can see from the image above, it absolutely looks like a Stalker game. A grim forest, abandoned cars, and an anomaly. Well, maybe it’s not an anomaly but it sure as hell looks like one. The upgrade to the Unreal Engine is also quite apparent. Now, I know, this isn’t much. We only got one screenshot and it doesn’t show us much, but it’s better than having nothing. However, the devs did say to expect more in 2020 in a Facebook post. This is going to be their most ambitious project yet, as reads in their official statement:
Greetings, Stalkers!
Thirteen years ago we released S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Shadow of Chernobyl.
The world was never the same after that. Millions of players rushed into the Zone. Driven by the desire to uncover mysteries, you overcame difficulties, hunted for treasures, fought monsters and joined factions.
You changed to become the real Stalkers.
You made this day forever special.
Being inspired by everything you do (including arts, stories, cosplays and mods), we fully understand we can’t let you down. The second chapter of the S.T.A.L.K.E.R. saga will be our most ambitious game so far. It will live to the legendary legacy.
A lot of you are joining social isolation now. That’s why today, on a very special occasion, we are ready to slightly uncover the mystery of what we are working on. This is the first glimpse of S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2.
Consider it as our humble present, with more to come in 2020.
If, by some chance, you didn’t play some of the best the survival genre has to offer, now’s the chance to correct that. Both Clear Skies and Shadow of Chernobyl are available on HRK Game for a great price!
