S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2: Heart of Chornobyl Gets Significant Discount for Update 1.7

One of the most highly anticipated games of 2024 was S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2: Heart of Chornobyl, the latest entry into the franchise by GSC Game World. Its beautiful visuals and deadly world invited players to explore the Chornobyl Exclusion Zone, find artifacts to earn money, and survive the mutant threat that awaits them inside, all the while avoiding world anomalies.

The launch has been a bit of a rocky experience for players, even a year after its release, with the recent reviews on Steam reaching Mixed and its overall rating nearly dropping to Mostly Positive. From features not working quite the way the fanbase expected to some missing elements, there have been a few complaints that fans have brought up.

Now, with the latest update launched, Version 1.7, the title is at a discount for those who have been waiting for a better price. While it's the same price we've seen since the Steam Summer Sale of this year — 30% off at £34.99 — it's still a good discount for such a highly anticipated title.

S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2: Heart of Chonrobyl is available on Xbox Series X|s and Windows PC via Steam, Epic Games Store, and GOG.
