STALKER 2: A Million-Seller in Two Days

Overwhelming Success and Developer Appreciation

The Chornobyl Exclusion Zone is bustling with activity thanks to the massive player base of STALKER 2. GSC Game World proudly announced this impressive sales milestone, achieved within 48 hours of launch on November 20th, 2024. This figure encompasses sales from both Steam and Xbox Series X|S. The actual player count is likely even higher, considering the substantial number of players accessing the game via Xbox Game Pass. The developers expressed sincere appreciation for the enthusiastic response, stating, "This is merely the beginning of our unforgettable journey. With gratitude as profound as the X-labs network, we extend our heartfelt thanks to all stalkers!"

Community Collaboration to Squash Bugs

While celebrating the game's success, GSC Game World acknowledged the presence of bugs and glitches. They actively encourage player feedback to aid in ongoing improvements. A dedicated website has been established for players to report bugs, provide feedback, or suggest new features. The developers specifically request that bug reports be submitted through this official channel rather than the Steam forums for more efficient tracking and resolution.

First Patch Arrives This Week

Following a wave of player feedback, GSC Game World announced the imminent arrival of the first post-release patch for STALKER 2 on November 24th. This patch, slated for release this week on both PC and Xbox, will address various issues, including crashes, quest progression impediments, and gameplay balance adjustments. Further improvements to the analog stick and A-Life systems are planned for future updates. The developers concluded their announcement by reiterating their commitment to enhancing the player experience and expressing gratitude for the continued support and feedback.
