Table of Contents
Regardless of my very own preliminary skepticism, STALKER 2: Coronary heart of Chornobyl is shaping as much as be the tour-de-force that each the developer GSC Recreation World and the franchise’s followers deserve. The November 20 launch date is seemingly set in stone, too, with pre-order goodies now lastly proven off.
As thrilling as information about STALKER 2‘s mod-kit and A-Life dealing with may be, who wouldn’t get thrilled by a flowery new gun pores and skin? Notably, whereas we’ve identified for fairly some time now that there’d be a snazzy set of pre-order bonuses obtainable to those that pre-purchase STALKER 2, the specifics have been pretty hazy. That’s all previously now that GSC has proven off an appropriately tuned VSS Vintorez, the legendary Vacationer stalker swimsuit, and a backpack patch, of all issues. These things will likely be obtainable for discovery in-game to all pre-order homeowners throughout all platforms, so it’s price highlighting them.

STALKER 2: Coronary heart of Chornobyl early hen pre-order digital content material proven off, and it’s cool stuff
Skins are, clearly, not going to be significantly related to 1’s core gameplay expertise in enjoying STALKER 2, however they certain are beautiful to have a look at. Extra particularly, the pre-order boons embody:
- Gvintar/Vintar DMR (As VSS marksman rifle) with customized attachments and a built-in Geiger counter.
- “Vacationer” Dawn swimsuit of armor with applicable upgrades.
- “Early Chook” survivalist backpack (with a flowery sewn-on patch).
- Bonus Campfire content material, together with guitar tunes and tales.
Nothing too wild or ridiculous, then. My solely hope is that this pack of goodies is later bundled right into a post-launch DLC of types, because it’d be a disgrace to have it completely locked behind pre-order/early hen affords.
The large query, although, is how these things will likely be dealt with in-game. To have a VSS handed to you within the early phases of a STALKER recreation is… uh, positively a selection. The featured armor set, too, seems to have elevated stock capability and upgraded safety in opposition to anomalies, and this might very effectively find yourself killing the early-game survival expertise.
I count on that GSC could have foreseen this as a possible drawback, nevertheless. I count on that each one three of these things will as an alternative be discovered a bit afterward, because the participant progresses by the early-game gauntlet. We’ll have to attend and see, nevertheless.
