S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2: Heart of Chernobyl gameplay trailer revealed at E3 2021

It has been four years since GSC Game World revealed that it was working on Stalker 2 again. Now during E3, the game has finally had a proper reveal and better yet, it'll be coming to Xbox Game Pass on day one. 

Last night during the Xbox and Bethesda E3 showcase, Stalker 2 was revealed with its first official gameplay trailer. As you can likely already tell by the graphical fidelity the developers are pushing for, this game won't be coming to last-gen consoles like the Xbox One. Instead, it'll be a timed Xbox Series X/S and PC exclusive.

The game is set to feature “epic cutscenes and underground labs to open-world fields”, so expect a big nice map and lots of action along the way.

Stalker 2 is set to release on the 28th of April 2022 and it'll be available on Xbox Game Pass for console and PC on day-one. The game may eventually be released on PlayStation consoles but for now, it appears to be a 3-month ‘launch window' exclusive for Xbox.

KitGuru Says: We've been following Stalker 2's development for years now, so it is great to finally see the game in action. Are many of you looking forward to this next year? What did you think of the gameplay trailer?

KitGuru Games: Predicting the Next Half a Decade of Call of Duty Releases

Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790) famously once said: “The three absolutes in life are death, taxes and a new Call of Duty coming out every single year”. Sure enough, the US founding father has yet to be proven wrong, with Activision and a dozen studios having ensured that come the tail-end of any given year, there will be a new COD ready to release. And so, what can we expect from the franchise later this year? What about 2027, 2028 or even 2030? By looking back at the past two decades of Call of Duty games, their trends, progression and regression, I believe I can predict the next 5 years worth of annual COD entries.
