The first thing that struck me in Stalker 2: Heart of Chornobyl – recently released on PlayStation 5 – wasn't the claws of a mutated creature or a bandit's hail of bullets, but the first-person shooter's stunning visual presentation.
Incredibly atmospheric, brimming with absorbing details, and endlessly immersive, GSC Game World's passion project immediately places you in a brutal, believable post-apocalyptic world capable of conjuring a lifetime of nightmares.
