GSC Game World, developers of STALKER 2: Heart of Chornobyl, expressed their gratitude for exceeding 1 million copies sold within just two days of its release across Steam and Xbox consoles. An upcoming patch promises further enhancements.
Impressive Sales and Player Response
The Chornobyl Exclusion Zone is bustling with activity thanks to STALKER 2's phenomenal launch. The 1 million sales figure, encompassing both Steam and Xbox Series X|S, represents a significant milestone. This number likely underrepresents the total player count, considering the game's availability on Xbox Game Pass. The developers expressed deep appreciation for the enthusiastic player response, promising this is merely the beginning of their shared adventure.
Community Feedback and Bug Reporting
While celebrating the success, GSC Game World acknowledged the presence of bugs and encouraged players to report issues via a dedicated technical support website. They specifically requested that bug reports be submitted through this channel, rather than the Steam forums, to ensure efficient tracking and resolution. The website also offers FAQs and troubleshooting guides.
First Patch on the Horizon
A first post-release patch is scheduled for release this week on both PC and Xbox. This update will address reported crashes, main quest progression roadblocks, and other issues, alongside gameplay improvements and balance adjustments, including weapon pricing. Further updates are planned to refine the analog stick controls and A-Life systems. The developers reiterated their commitment to continuous improvement based on player feedback.
