Yes, GSC Game World is still developing S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2, even though it was announced almost a decade ago. That being said, the devs have been making noise (sort of) with small updates to the title’s Facebook, Twitter and website. And now, in an interview with YouTuber Antishnaps (with a translated version posted on Reddit), we’ve gotten a few more details on the game.

The interview (part 1 and part 2 didn’t elaborate on much, although there were several key takeaways. For starters, the team developing the title is the largest the studio has ever put together. It’s also entirely self-funded, and there aren’t any plans for a Kickstarter at the present time.

Also, S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2 is being described as a “high-quality AAA game” with a “unique atmosphere”, and the studio is drawing from the original S.T.A.L.K.E.R. trilogy to help flesh out the game. The sequel will not, however, feature co-op or have a VR version.

Other than that, GSC is still keeping the cards close, leaving many wondering just what to make of it all. Hopefully it doesn’t take another seven years before we get to play this one.
