The release is near: preloading of the long-awaited shooter STALKER 2: Heart of Chornobyl has started on Xbox Series

The release of the long-awaited shooter STALKER 2: Heart of Chornobyl from Ukrainian studio GSC Game World will take place on 20 November - and that's for sure, as the game has "gone gold".

Xbox Series console users can already use the preload option.

Here's What We Know

To start the game at the time of release, Xbox Series users who pre-ordered the game can already install it, but to do so, you need to free up 146.58 GB on the SSD drive.

Recall that the developers paid a lot of attention to the console versions of S.T.A.A.L.K.E.R. 2: Heart of Chornobyl, thanks to which the ambitious game should work well even on the weak Xbox Series S console. Game designers promise at least 30 FPS, but this figure can be even higher, but Series X owners can expect 60 FPS at high resolution.

The game will also be released on PC, and will immediately appear in the Xbox Game Pass catalogue.
