STALKER 2 Dev Says There's No Current Plans for PS5 - Push Square

STALKER 2, the highly anticipated sequel to the survival horror game series, has been making headlines recently for its development updates. However, the latest news from the game’s developer, GSC Game World, may come as a disappointment to some fans. In a recent interview with Push Square, the developer revealed that there are currently no plans to port the game to PlayStation 5.

According to the interview, GSC Game World is focusing its efforts on developing STALKER 2 for PC and Xbox Series X/S, with no plans to bring the game to Sony’s next-generation console. This news may come as a surprise to fans who were hoping to experience the game on PS5, especially given the success of the previous games in the series on PlayStation platforms.

The decision not to port STALKER 2 to PS5 may be due to a number of factors, including the developer’s preference for the Xbox platform, as well as the technical limitations of the PS5 compared to the Xbox Series X/S. In a previous interview with GameRant, the game’s director, Igor Klapak, expressed his enthusiasm for the Xbox platform, stating that it is “superior” to PC and that Microsoft’s specialists have been helpful in supporting the Ukrainian development team.

While the lack of a PS5 version may be disappointing for some fans, it’s worth noting that STALKER 2 is still in development and there may be opportunities for the game to come to other platforms in the future. The developer has not ruled out the possibility of a PS5 version entirely, and has stated that they will consider porting the game to other platforms after the initial release on PC and Xbox.

In the meantime, fans can look forward to experiencing STALKER 2 on PC and Xbox Series X/S, where it promises to deliver a thrilling and immersive survival horror experience. With its atmospheric setting, intense gameplay, and rich storyline, STALKER 2 is shaping up to be one of the most highly anticipated games of the year.

In conclusion, while the lack of a PS5 version of STALKER 2 may be disappointing for some fans, the game’s developer has expressed their commitment to delivering a high-quality experience on the platforms it is currently being developed for. With its release date still to be announced, fans can look forward to hearing more updates from GSC Game World in the coming months.
