GSC Game World, Microsoft drop teaser for highly anticipated S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2

It looks like Ukrainian developer GSC Game World has secured a strong and reliable partner to push the next installment of its cult S.T.A.L.K.E.R. series. Today, during Microsoft's presentation, the first teaser trailer for S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2 debuted:

Yes, it finally happened! After more than 11 years, we're finally getting a glimpse of what the next chapter in the legendary S.T.A.L.K.E.R. saga will look like.

Currently, it's unclear whether the trailer footage is pre-rendered or if it reflects the real-time visuals we can expect at launch. However, given that S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2 is skipping current-gen consoles and focusing solely on the next generation; Xbox Series X and PlayStation 5, there's strong hope for truly stunning graphics.

What's more, sources suggest the game will be a timed exclusive for Microsoft. This means S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2 will first launch on Xbox Series X and PC (running Windows 10) before eventually arriving on PlayStation 5.
