GSC GameWorld has released five brand new screenshots from S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2: Heart of Chernobyl. These screenshots showcase the image quality that the team has been able to achieve with Unreal Engine 5.

These new screenshots look absolutely incredible, and feel more like bullshots. Since the game targets current-gen consoles, it can look this good. Nevertheless, they appear too good to be true.

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.

GSC GameWorld has confirmed that it will be using motion-capture for both bodies and faces, as well as photogrammetry. Additionally, the game will support mods at launch day, and will support Ray Tracing effects.

STALKER 2: Heart of Chernobyl releases on April 28th, 2022, and will be using Unreal Engine 5. You can also find here its official PC system requirements.

Enjoy!
