The Great Emission, the largest anomalous energy blowout from the Chornobyl Nuclear Power Plant, has once again shaken the world. Investigating its cause and preventing future cataclysms is your only chance to survive in S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Clear Sky, a prequel to the original story — now recalibrated for a console journey.

MYSTERIES OF THE PAST
As a mercenary named Scar, take a key role in determining Strelok’s fate and uncover new details about the original game's story, revealing its major secrets. Visit familiar places as they were before the original game started and witness the events that shaped the Zone in the years ahead.

WAR OF FACTIONS
The transformation of the Zone map destabilizes the fragile balance of power in the Zone. Hostilities over new territories, artifact fields, and spheres of influence flare up among groups. To survive, join one of the factions and dominate opponents across the Zone... Or, like a true mercenary, benefit from working for all the factions at once.

NEW TOOLS
Artifacts, the treasures of the Zone, now require not only your gumption but also special detectors to reveal them amidst the new and old anomalies. For less delicate tasks in the Zone, meet new additions to your arsenal: the HPSS-1m pistol, double-barreled hunting rifle, and RP-74 machine gun, along with the new option to upgrade your weapons and armor.

EMERGED PATHS
The safe and trusted pathways are no more. Known places disappear into impenetrable fields of anomalies; stalkers and entire expeditions vanish or remain trapped within. Mysterious territories that have been lost since the appearance of the Zone are opening up: the Swamps, Red Forest, and Limansk. Your mission is to become a pioneer and explore them in “Clear Sky”!

The forerunner of the open-world survival FPS genre, the classic S.T.A.L.K.E.R. — recalibrated for a console journey. Dive into the grim atmosphere of this dark science-fiction world on a path to Chornobyl in the first chapter of the original trilogy.

EMBRACE DESOLATION
These desolate lands are full of hundreds of vagabonds. Though, the stalker is always on his own, facing dangers that are often unseen. Enjoy the mix of action, stealth, horror, and survival with RPG elements in a grim Eastern European setting. And don’t trust anything but your Geiger counter!

EXPLORE
The Zone, a place full of unfathomable wonders and sinister threats – formerly an exclusion territory near the Chornobyl Nuclear Power Plant. Crawl your path to the destination through real-life existing locations: Prypiat, Nuclear Reactors, Red Forest, and others.

SURVIVE
The path of a stalker to his goal is never a walk in the park. A treacherous anomaly, able to mash even the most experienced fighter, invisible radiation, or plain starvation – any of these can cost you your life. Being careful at every step and managing your resources is the way to survive.

FIGHT
Get ready to test your skills and gumption, enduring superior numbers of rivals and mutants capable of reacting to changes and living their own lives in vast locations. A broad arsenal of more than 30 weapons will come in handy.

DECIDE
To stay alive, a true stalker must never stop his search. Valuable trophies, equipment, supplies, new friends, or answers to the grimmest riddles of these lands give a chance not to perish. Prepare for a non-linear journey for answers and forge your fate with choices that lead to different endings
