GSC Game World, developers of STALKER 2: Heart of Chornobyl, express deep gratitude for surpassing 1 million copies sold within two days of launch across Steam and Xbox consoles. This impressive feat has spurred the team to announce an upcoming patch designed to enhance the player experience.

A Million Copies Sold – A Testament to STALKER 2's Success

The Chornobyl Exclusion Zone is bustling with activity thanks to the overwhelming response to STALKER 2. Launched on November 20th, 2024, the game's immersive world, challenging survival elements, and intense combat have resonated strongly with players. The 1 million sales figure encompasses both Steam and Xbox Series X|S platforms, with the actual player count likely higher due to Xbox Game Pass subscriptions. GSC Game World acknowledges this incredible achievement, stating, "This is just the start of our unforgettable adventure. With gratitude as deep as the X-labs network, we want to say: Thank You, stalkers!"

Community Feedback Crucial for Ongoing Improvements

While celebrating the game's success, GSC Game World actively seeks player assistance in identifying and resolving bugs. They've established a dedicated website for bug reports and feedback, urging players to utilize this resource instead of the Steam forums for more efficient issue tracking and resolution. This proactive approach underscores their commitment to continuous improvement.

First Patch Arrives This Week

Responding to player feedback, GSC Game World confirmed the release of the first post-launch patch for both PC and Xbox platforms within the week. This initial update will address critical issues, including crashes, quest progression obstacles, and gameplay balance adjustments, such as weapon pricing. Further improvements to the analog stick and A-Life systems are planned for future updates. The developers reiterate their commitment to enhancing the STALKER 2 experience, expressing sincere gratitude for player feedback and support.
