In S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2: Heart of Chornobyl, the second massive explosion in the year 2006 completely changed the Chornobyl Exclusion Zone, creating violent mutants, deadly anomalies, and different factions vying for control, resources and the valuable artifacts that have lured many people (known as S.T.A.L.K.E.R.s) to the region.
As one of these S.T.A.L.K.E.R.s, players will follow a non-linear branching storyline that will take them across an open world in a 64-km² radioactive zone spread over a variety of environments transformed by the apocalyptic event.
Encounter numerous mutated creatures that will try to permanently stop your search for the valuable artifacts. Fortunately, there are more than 30 types of weapons with many different modifications that can be used to stop them before they stop you.
Hunting down these artifacts will commence for PS5 players on 20th November.
