The new launch plan of September 5 is described as the “final release date” in that social media message, in a press release, and in a brief trailer accompanying the announcement. The press release also reiterates that Stalker 2 will be available day one on Xbox Game Pass.
After somehands-on time with Stalker 2 at Gamescom, GamesRadar+’s own Josh West wrote “the notion that Stalker 2 will be ready to launch in the next six months or so seems ambitious at best,” adding that “I’m happy to wait for as long as it takes, because beneath the broken AI, jagged foliage, and misfiring weapons is the still beating heart of Stalker.” Clearly, GSC Game World has been taking that kind of feedback to heart.
