![]() ![]() ![]() While this new version is certainly an improvement to its original release, it suffers from several technical issues, as I had the game crash well over a dozen times, causing me to lose hours of progress and a few instances of some pretty drastic frame drops.Īcross a roughly 15-20 hour campaign, you’ll play as Igor Khymynyuk, a physicist who was present during the infamous Chornobyl incident of 1986. While character models still don’t look amazing, the environments are often jaw-dropping, especially its stunning 3D-scanned exclusion zone. Chernobylite was released back in September of 2021 for last-gen consoles but recently has been upgraded to take advantage of the Series X/S and PS5. While my own experience is extremely minimal with that franchise, I felt a lot of Fallout 4 and Metro 2033 vibes here in more ways than one. Hell, even the character you are playing as is given the Stalker title. It’s also one that richly fills the void until we finally see the release of the upcoming S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Despite my incredible enjoyment with Chernobylite, it’s filled with several technical shortcomings and a save system that is both confusing and temperamental.įarm 51 has a very interesting game here, a survival game with rogue-lite and horror elements, all fused to create a very compelling experience. The choices you’ll make during Igor’s journey will change the story, how your team perceives you as a leader, and the fallout of the final mission. This is all while putting the pieces together about a mystery surrounding Igor’s beloved Tatyana, and the appearance of a substance called Chernobylite. As you venture out into its radiated forests and encounter soldiers and strange monsters, you’ll gather essential resources to bring back to your HQ to construct a comfortable living space for you and your teammates and to further prepare you for the road ahead. Chernobylite has a very addicting gameplay loop.
