After years of development amidst the destruction of their home country, Ukraine, by Russia, the development studio is working on fixes for the game, such as the recently-released A-Life fix, as well as upcoming expansions for the title.In an interview with IGN, GSC Game World CEO Ievgen Grygorovych creative director Maria Grygorovych explained that the games massive success has forced the studio to face a new reality. With a bigger fanbase and more faces to keep smiling, the studio may end up spending even longer on the games post-launch support, especially due to the state it launched in.Stalker 2 will get even more post-launch supportThe Grygorovyches explained that the massive popularity of Stalker 2: Heart of Chornobyl has caused them to reassess their plans for the future. After the games massively successful reveal, the studio realised it has a lot more fans to please and the additional funds to do so.You need to think properly because we now have a really big audience and sometimes different parts of this audience want to see different things, Maria Grygorovych said.The developers CEO expanded on that thought, explaining that the studio has planned what it wanted to do in the next 10, 15 years. While the projects the team want to make after Stalker 2 support is finished havent changed, the team now wants to spend even longer on the sequels post-launch support.Six years passed and we still want to do the same games as we planned earlier and nothing changed, the CEO said. The only things that changed is that we didnt think that we would like to invest much more time in live updates of Stalker 2 after game release, that we would want to add much more things in this game in live updates.In the IGN report, its claimed that the studio is planning to bring in cut ideas that were removed from the game mid-development. Due to massive support from the games fanbase, GSC Game World can now spend time finishing up and adding cut content, much like Cyberpunk 2077 did after its rather rough launch.We didnt expect that we would go back to improving Stalker 2 for a lot, Ievgen explained. And now we still have the same plan for 10, 15 years of development of other things we want. But also putting much more in development of Stalker 2.For more Stalker 2 coverage, read about the mod that brings back the UI of the classic games.
