War Game: The Making of S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2 is a story about the game development and about the people behind S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2: Heart of Chornobyl. It’s about the challenges we faced in continuing the development.

We are grateful to the Microsoft team for helping to create this film and sharing our story with the world.

Our deepest thanks go to everyone defending and supporting Ukraine. Without you, S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2: Heart of Chornobyl would not have been possible.

GSC Game World supports our country in all possible ways. Those who wish to do the same can do so by following the link to the official foundation of Volodymyr Zelenskyy, President of Ukraine: https://u24.gov.ua.

Very well worth the watch.

They've gone through hell but are still so optimistic and it's pretty amazing what the company founders did to try to keep their people safe.

Such a poignant documentary.

Tempting to watch, but I will abstain from doing so until after I've played the game. STALKER is probably my favorite sci-fi movie. I want to go in as blind as possible for STALKER 2.

The games are not adaptations of the movie.
And there is very little footage from the second game in it, and none that woud be knew, afaik.

Yes yes, good good. Very inspiring.

So since STALKER 2 is basically done... can't we just make them Halo Studios instead?

I know they're not direct adaptations, but it's the same universe, no?

Ah, thanks for the heads up about there not being any new footage beyond what's been shown already.

Here's a sneak peak for GameSpot's upcoming STALKER 2 documentary. The full video goes live on March 19th @ 9am PDT.

The GameSpot team visited GSC Game World’s Prague office as the S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2 team recounted the many hardships they faced leading up to the release of the ambitious sequel. We chatted with 9 developers (7 in Prague and 2 in Ukraine) about the toll the Russian invasion has taken on the team, and the profound importance of sharing Ukrainian culture with the world at a time like this.
