I vores preview af S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2: Heart of Chornobyl slog vi fast at GSC Game World burde tage sig mere tid til at sikre at spillet står på et mere sikkert teknisk fundament. For nylig blev det så afsløret at spillet udkommer d. 5 september, i stedet for her i løbet af årets første kvartal.
Og det lader da også til at være af tekniske årsager at spillet skubbes. I en besked på X har udvikleren nu slået fast, at forsinkelsen sker for at sikre at spillets teknik kan følge med de kunstneriske ambitioner:
"On the technical side of things — the game needs more time. Throughout the frankly challenging development process, we understood the time was of the team's main essence. Seeing the scope of polishing and understanding that we can't push your patience too much, we were absolutely dedicated to releasing the game in Q1 2024, and we worked extra hard to meet the release window. That, however, doesn't change the fact that at the beginning of this year, we still witnessed the certain amount of technical imperfections that hold S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2 below the expected standards for the final experience our fans are waiting for."
Vi er glade for at studiet tager sig god tid, og vi glæder os til at spille det relativt snart.
