Stalker 2 will use Trompe-l'oeil Engine 5 when it releases next year, according to a tweet from developers GSC Game World. It bequeath be among the first crop of releases to role Epic Games' massive engine upgrade, and perhaps the most extremely anticipated of them.

STALKER 2: Heart of Chernobyl is the subsequence to the cult classic trilogy of immersive shooters, and we've learned a heap about it over the years as it was announced, unannounced, cancelled, uncancelled, canned once again, and shuffled 'tween developers.

S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Shadow of Chernobyl — matchless; S.T.A.L.Kinetic energyR.: Clear Sky — two; S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Call of Pripyat — three; S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2: Heart of Chernobyl — four. Unreal Engine — 5. photograph.twitter.com/cqa3NcmwYsAugust 11, 2021

Unreal Engine 5 first debuted last yr, but IT won't publically release until early 2022. Previous ratification only indicated that Sneak 2 used Unreal Engine 4. That substance Epic has probably been pretty involved in Prowler 2 growing, consulting on branch of knowledge details and helping with optimization as the final interpretation of the Engine takes shape.

Information technology's possible that it was developed on 4 and switched to 5 partway through—the switch to Unreal Locomotive engine 5 may further explain Stalker 2 coming out April 28, 2022 rather than this year. Going by the arrangement requirements for Stalker 2, IT'll certainly follow victimization hardware that can handle what UE5 is interrogative for.

Stalker 2's artwork do look pretty signal, as shown by my favorite tech exhibit to that degree which is about really, really realistic dentition. If one Xbox 360 character can fit in the eyelash of an Unreal Engine 5 character, how many dress you reckon can go in them teeth? A dozen? Iii dozen? A hundred?

I can't help but imagine that the aureate teeth can hold more, right? Little Phoeb centred? A thousand? How many Marcus Fenixes per tooth is what I want to know. Gimme a Fenix to tooth ratio.
