The description states that Nvidia’s presentation is mainly focused on AI technology. It says:

“We will present an exclusive look at Stalker 2, present today’s workflow challenges in the facial animation and localization process.”

In January, a new batch of screenshots showcased the visual fidelity featured in the upcoming title. Recent gameplay videos from Stalker 2 have also shown much promise, hinting at an exciting future for the franchise.

The Stalker franchise has faced several development hurdles over the years. Since the initial announcement in 2010, Stalker 2 has been canceled, rebooted, and delayed. The latest delay pushed the game into 2023, despite the 2022 release window.

However, the developers have worked hard to ensure that the game can live up to the quality of the Stalker franchise. The upcoming look will likely show the game at its best to capture the gaming industry’s attention.

Stalker 2: Heart of Chornobyl is currently confirmed for release on Xbox Series S|X and PC. The title will also join Xbox Game Pass on release day.
