Description:
Stalker 2: Heart of Chornobyl is available to preload, but you might need to clear some space on your Xbox first.
FULL STORY ======================================================================Stalker 2: Heart of Chornobyl is now available to preload It requires roughly 150GB
of console storage space The game will launch on November 20
Stalker 2: Heart of Chornobyl is set to launch on November 20 and can be preloaded now on Xbox so that youre ready to play when the big day comes around.
There is a catch, though, as the game comes in at an absolutely massive 146.58GB, which puts it right up there with some of the largest games on the platform.
Ensuring you have enough space for the download is going to be a bit of a hassle if you already have a substantial game library, especially for those using the original 512GB Xbox Series S which only has about 350GB of usable space out of the box.
If you dont have around 150GB available, your best bet is to start uninstalling games or invest in any of the best Xbox Series X hard drives and SSDs , like the Seagate Xbox Storage Expansion Card , for a big storage
boost.
Three editions of Stalker 2: Heart of Chornobyl can be purchased now: the standard version, the Deluxe Edition, and the Ultimate Edition. The game is also available via an Xbox Game Pass subscription. All three versions are eligible for preloading, including for those accessing the standard version through Game Pass.
Luckily, if you cant manage to muster up the storage space before launch day, Stalker 2: Heart of Chornobyl will also be offered as Xbox Cloud Gaming. This wont be much consolation for those with poor internet connections, but it
does offer some the option to give the game a try before committing to a full download.
Throughout its development, Stalker 2: Heart of Chornobyl was hit with multiple delays partly due to the ongoing Russian invasion of Ukraine, the region where developer GSC Game World is based, and the desire to polish out any technical imperfections .
In addition to Xbox Series X and Xbox Series S, the game will also be launching on PC. You might also like The PS5 Pros PSSR upscaling gives multiple games a huge visual upgrade can it compete with Nvidias DLSS 3 successor? Sony's free PlayStation VR for PS5 adapter is being discontinued
