Here's What We Know

The author of the video from IGN praised S.T.A.A.L.L.K.K.E.R. 2 for the fact that the game forces the gamer to manage resources wisely, because if you rashly spend all the ammunition, consumables and medicines - you can be unarmed before the dangers of the Zone. But even in this case there is a way out of a difficult situation, for example, in the absence of ammunition provides the opportunity to lure enemies into a deadly trap or set mutants on them.

The author of VG247 noted that the gloomy atmosphere and peculiar aesthetics of S.T.A.L.K.E.R. may repel new gamers, but fans of the series will remain excited about the new game. He also noted that Heart of Chornobyl forces the player to constantly think, calculate actions, analyse the danger and take the right actions, as the cost of a mistake can be very high.

Some reviewers complained about bugs, but the developers promised that in the release version they will be much less.
