Being developed by GSC Game World, a Ukrainian indie studio, Stalker 2 is an open-world experience set in Chernobyl after the disastrous nuclear explosion.

Known as a Stalker, you are trapped inside Chernobyl, where is now a host for bandits and mutated creatures. As per developers, the game will provide nearly 100 hours of gameplay with both campaign and side quests.

Will Stalker 2 Release on PS5 too?

Based on the official information, no. But, there is evidence that it could launch on PS5 a few months later.

First of all, Microsoft revealed the gameplay trailer as an Xbox Launch Exclusive. This means the game will launch exclusively on Xbox consoles and PC, but it could be available on other platforms sometime after launch.

Furthermore, there was a leak from Microsoft documents recently, pointing out that Stalker 2 will be exclusive to PC and Xbox consoles for three months. So, if it turns out to be true, you can expect Stalker 2 on PS5 in August 2022 or beyond.

Stalker 2 will be available on Xbox Series X|S and PC on April 28, 2022. You will be able to play it for free through an Xbox Game Pass subscription at launch.
