S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2: Heart of Chornobyl Specs & PC Requirements
August 02, 2023

STALKER 2: Heart of Chornobyl is the long awaited next entry in the STALKER saga. Almost 13 years on from its original announcement, 12 years on from its cancellation, and five years on from its re-announcement, STALKER 2 is finally almost here. And it looks stunning. Like the original game, STALKER 2 looks set to push graphical boundaries with its incredible realism, incorporating some of the latest visual effects of today, including the ever-demanding ray tracing.
That means that like any stalkers looking to survive within the Zone, you’re going to need to bring some heavy firepower to the table. You can skip the Geiger counter this time, but you’re going to need a powerful processor and graphics card to play it at anything above the lowest settings.
There’s nothing wrong with that, of course, as STALKER 2 will look great at even 1080p low. But if you’re intrigued by the idea of real time lighting effects, or even 4K resolution, you’re going to need to have a very special kind of gaming PC indeed. Here’s what you’ll need to run STALKER 2: Heart of Chornobyl.
