Stalker 2 could redefine action horror – in the same way its brilliantly terrifying forerunners did
As any action horror fan will tell you, GSC Game World’s Stalker series is up there with the best the genre has to offer. First introduced by way of 2007’s brilliant Stalker: Shadow of Chernobyl, followed up by the equally unsettling Stalker: Clear Sky in 2008, and rounded off by Stalker: Call of Pripyat the year after that again, the trilogy – set deep within the real-world Chernobyl exclusion zone, albeit unfolding in a fictional timeline – set new standards in survival scares almost 16 years ago.
