PS5 players will be treated to yet another Xbox exclusive in 2025, with a highly-anticipated shooter joining the list. Stalker 2: Heart of Chornobyl will shed its exclusivity to land on PS5 along with full DualSense controller support as well as PS5 Pro enhancements.
Former Xbox exclusive shooter Stalker 2’s PS5 release date window set for ‘late 2025’
The announcement trailer, which was exclusively shared with IGN first for some reason, can be seen below:
According to the trailer’s description, Stalker 2 will “fully utilize DualSense controller features, including haptic feedback and adaptive triggers for deeper player immersion. Further technical enhancements for the PS5 Pro are also in development.”
What these technical enhancements are will be revealed later at some point.
A specific release date was not announced, but Stalker 2 will be out on PS5 in “late 2025.” We’re guessing it’ll target the holiday season.
A PS Store page has already gone live in some regions, with the ability to wishlist Stalker 2. “Experience a one-of-a-kind blend of first-person shooter, immersive sim, and survival horror,” reads an official description. “Scavenge for gear and resources, hunt for wonders, make hard decisions to survive and pave the path through the Chornobyl Anomalous Zone.”
