An absolute cult shooter is coming to the market for consoles after years.
The entire trilogy is available for PS5 and Xbox.
Hamburg – One of the most iconic shooters of the last 20 years was released in 2007.
At that time, the game was only released for the PC, because the console market had the PS3, the Nintendo DS Lite and the Xbox 360. Publishing games on all platforms was not as common as it is today.
Now the cult shooter is also coming onto the market for PS5 and Xbox Series X/S – as a trilogy.

The three titles for PS4 and Xbox One were announced in a trailer on Xbox's YouTube channel.

When is Stalker 2 coming?
Getting into the Stalker trilogy now is also a good idea because of the sequel.
After a few postponements, Stalker 2 is finally scheduled to be released in September 2024.
ingame.de played Stalker 2 at Gamescom 2023 and reported that there was still room for improvement at the time.
With over a year more development time, the Ukrainian studio may have made a lot of fine-tuning to the cult shooter.
