For the first time in GSC Game World’s long-awaited game, we can hear the Ukrainian dub, which will be standard in S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2, so we will not only be able to choose English voices, but the “native” language will also be an option (since the studio is Ukrainian).
In the press release GSC Game World says about the trailer, which is called Not a Paradise, that we will see cutscenes on the one hand, and on the other hand we will get an overview of the locations, so that we can get an impression of the story and the atmosphere. The Ukrainian dubbing is also shown, which can be an inspiration for the audience in the end of the war that has been going on for more than two years (it will end one day).
S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2: Heart of Chornobyl will combine in a unique way the first-person shooter genre, the immersive simulator (such as System Shock) and horror, but of course the Zone will not be left out, so radiation, mutants and anomalies will be an integral part of the gameplay. There will be other people to fight, because not all stalkers will be on our side, but that’s always been the case.
