Stalker 2 Updates with X-Lab, Awaiting Cost of Hope
A free update today, then the first expansion in summer

The Ukrainian studio GSC Game World announces the release of a free update for S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2: Heart of Chornobyl. This additional content is called Sealed Truth and introduces a new narrative-driven quest that transports players into X-Lab, a mysterious place where research failures remain buried. This area contains great risks, but can dispense great rewards.
The first expansion for Stalker 2
Today's free update was released to celebrate the announcement of Cost of Hope, the first expansion for Stalker 2. This paid DLC will offer dozens of hours of gameplay in a non-linear context, with new areas to explore, new weapons and equipment, and, of course, new monstrous creatures to fight. The release of Cost of Hope has been set for summer 2026. For more information on the game, there is the Stalker 2 review.
