Confusion Reigns Over S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Rights Acquisition Claim

OnlySP writes:
"Earlier today, bitComposer Entertainment AG issued a press release indicating that they had purchased the "exclusive worldwide rights for future video game adaptations of the acclaimed S.T.A.L.K.E.R. brand" and that the event "ensures that the successful series will continue". Great news for fans of the atmospheric series, especially in light of the apparent closure of original developer, GSC Game World, earlier this year which meant that it was widely deemed dead. As it transpires, as noteworthy as this turn of events would be in its own right, things are a bit muddier that they appear."

Stop the bickering and just release the next version already!

[Here is for hoping in vain!]

Nobody is working on STALKER 2, its dead. The company that use to work on it is making their own game, Survirium, which is MMOFPS.

As sucky as it is, STALKER seems to be dead.

Probably in performance mode and upscaling from 720p like the other UE5 games with an unstable frame rate during intense scenes.

Yeah. That´s what I´m expecting to be honest. Not sure if the GSC Game World are using VSMs, but I heard from the developer they were taking advantage of both Nanite and Lumen for this game.

They´re in the polishing process right now, so here´s hoping they can deliver a smooth and consistent as possible experience for all platforms.

Uncharted on PS3 was 720p and looked beautiful
