Each in the currency that store quoted — not converted: the gap between two rows is the publisher's pricing, not an exchange rate.
14 of 15 markets; the rest we haven't asked for this title, not markets where it is unavailable.
Availability
We put this game to every storefront we collect. A market that answered not sold has told us something about the game; a market we never asked has not, and the two are never drawn the same.
Charts
Each storefront's own chart, in its own country — the closest public signal to sales where none is published. A country missing from a list is one we don't collect there, not one where the game doesn't chart.

Wow, great work, GSC. Played for 60 hours on mods - great game. Got hyped for the DLC, sat through 130gb of update because my data cap is worthless and i should just pay more Got into the game at last, sat for 15 minutes on the shader compilation screen because my time is worthless and i should just have more of it. Finally the game launches, i'm at the end of the story cos i was having fun just exploring, i think "maybe i'll finish it before hopping into the DLC. Game crashes on load. Okay, maybe that's the mods? i remove all of them except carry weight mod. Game still crashes on load. GSC has killed my 60h save. I start the new game in a desperate try to see if it's a dead save. Game is now clean - still crashes. I start the new DLC game, choose my options to match my 60h save. Game still crashes. Game is unplayable now. Great start. Worth waiting SO LONG for.
WOW! I think its 9/10 DLC. took me about 17hrs to complete the Duty/Zulu storyline and i cant wait to go back to my save and see what happens with Mavka and Freedom. the story is so much more compelling to me than most of the base game and I really enjoyed base games story. But both characters and factions and just all the lore dropping we do here is sooooooooo good, I absolutely recommend this 2.0 update to those who have been skeptical on the the game and definitely pick this dlc up as well and 30 bucks gives you an additional 17-24hrs of content and its some of the best content in game.

14 on sale1 answered “not sold”0 we did not ask
The 1 “not sold” market is read from the Steam price pass of Sep 6: that day the store answered for this game elsewhere and gave no price there. The 14 priced markets are the same rows as the table above — each the latest price we hold, dated here when it is older than that pass. The 0 marked “not asked” were not put to this store at all — either it has no storefront there or we do not collect it yet, and neither is a statement about the game. A refusal is a refusal on one day; a store can list a title again tomorrow.

Топова ДЛСішка, над персонажами та їх історіями постаралися на славу, діалоги навіть цікавіші ніж в основній грі. Сама постановка з сценарієм то якийсь шикоз! Та, звісно ж, найцікавіше тут це нові локації та те як вони показані: стрьомний Залізний ліс, величезна ЧАЕСка зі слідами баталій з попередніх частин і де можна (а навіть треба) зазирнути майже під кожен камінь, ну а Лиманськ хоч і є епізодичною локою (так насправді години на дві уважного проходження) зроблений просто шедеврально - гігагуста атмосфера перемішана з липким саспенсом, так, це супер! Плюс два шляхи проходження. На новій версії рушія гра виглядає на голову вище від попередньої, це видно в усьому - просто більш досконалий рендерінг, хоч, на жаль, і без апаратного РТХ. По оптимізації нічого нового не помітив - тобто вже добре. Пачка нової зброї теж радує, тепер її в грі стільки, що треба буде міняти щодругої вилазки, щоб опробувати все. На жаль геймплей без змін - такий же незграбно-дубовенький, очевидно, розробники принципово не хочуть його покращувати (та й взагалі займати), може там просто на костилях все тримається. На щастя моди це покращують. Нові аномалії цікаві. Новий мутант Амок - не особливо: просто весь час біжить за тобою і вбиває коли наздожене, ніякої тактики, чи особливих технік. В кожному разі враховуючи, знову ж, прямолінійний геймплей - Скіф вміє скакати тільки вгору, а тут був би в тему якийсь ухил в сторону. Просто постаратися почухати цьому монстру спинку, яку "хтось" залишив відкритою - на сьогоднішній день схема збита до оскомини. Загалом кайфовий контент, до проходження обов'язковий, особливо для фанатів серії - піднято багато цікавих тем, а на деякі питання навіть дали відповіді. Рекомендую!
Call of Pripyat gave a perfect template for what a modern Stalker game should be. Tight maps, filled with content, meaningful quests, choice&consequence. Instead, GSC made a game that is stuck in 2007 - a theme park and a walking simulator across an area that is 64 times bigger than it needs to be. Cost of Hope was a chance to salvage things - just like Bethesda reacted to fan feedback in Fallout 4 and made Far Harbor. It could've been a standalone addon set in a small area with faction warfare and better A-life. Instead, it's more of the same. Worse yet, the DLC is held hostage by the main story by virtue of being integrated in it. After the prologue and a few quests you get access to the DLC, play a bit, get a taste for it, and then suddenly realize you only got the HALF of it - with the other half gated behind most of the main story, which you couldn't care less about as it's just a contrived justification for having to spend hours running from A to B. The tragedy of the DLC is being stuck inside the game the only praiseworthy things about are its assets and animations. Everything else - from the story to worldbuilding and minute-to-minute gameplay deserves a long hard look at. Perhaps it was naive to expect it to happen within the scope of a DLC? That said, this might be a blessing in disguise, because assets might be reused to make a better game going forward.
Черговий вибір між Волею та Долгом Це доповнення занурить нас в чергове протистояння між Волею та Долгом, та змусить обирати: чи може Зона бути корисною для світу, чи все ж все що з нею пов'язано має бути знищено Основний сюжет гри розпочинається як звичайне дослідження дивних аномалій в зоні, з часом переросте в пошук правди, проведе нас через місто "якого не мало б існувати" та згодом приведе нас в саме серце Зони. Сюжет в міру довгий, не відчувається штучної затягнутості, хоча особисто мені хотілося б ще + 15-20% до його тривалості. Є цікаві та дуже добре пропрацьовані персонажі Також додали трохи сторонніх квестів, частина з яких доступна лише після завершення основного сюжету доповнення, але воно того справді варте Щодо дослідження, то тут нам дають змогу повернутися в зруйнований НДІЧАЗ, містичний Лиманськ, а також відкривають доступ до Залізного лісу та ЧАЕС. Всі ці локації неймовірно цікаво досліджувати, а єдиний мінус який тут є, це те що значна частина ЧАЕС на жаль не доступна для дослідження Однозначно круте доповнення яке варто було чекати 9 аномалій з 10
Круте доповнення, до кінця ще не пройшов, але воно вже точно цікавіше за основну гру.
[h1]A ABSOLUTE MASTERPIECE. 10/10[/h1] I finished [b]Cost of Hope[/b] siding with [b]Freedom[/b], and it was an absolutely incredible, breathtaking experience. This game is a pure masterpiece. The unmatched atmosphere of the Zone, the gripping narrative, the deep exploration, and everything happening around me were so immersive that after the finale, I actually felt a genuine sense of melancholy that it was over. [h2]The Mavka Ending & That Song...[/h2] I have to talk about the Mavka ending. The gorgeous, hauntingly beautiful song she sings at the very end completely broke me. It gives you literal chills and adds such a massive emotional weight to the entire story. It’s a moment I will never forget, and it perfectly encapsulates the tragic beauty of the Zone.
Just play GAMMA, it’s free, actually enjoyable, and takes less space than whatever the hell STALKER 2 is trying to be.
Dlaczego w polskiej wersji językowej Azot nazywa się Nitro? Kto robi polonizację? Może ktoś ich w końcu ogarnąć?! Takich błędów jest cała masa
S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2: Cost of Hope — 10/10! 🔥☢️ Cost of Hope and Update 2.0 are absolutely incredible! The jump to Unreal Engine 5.5.4 is a huge improvement. The graphics are stunning and photorealistic, gameplay is ultra-smooth, and performance is unbelievable. I'm averaging around 250 FPS at 4K with the graphics maxed out on my Alienware AW3225QF. The new binoculars, gameplay improvements, and overall atmosphere make the Zone feel better than ever. My Rig: • AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D • MSI GeForce RTX 5070 Ti 16GB • 32GB DDR5-6000 RAM • Samsung 990 Pro NVMe SSD • Alienware AW3225QF — 32" 4K QD-OLED, 240Hz After almost 800 hours in S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2, this is easily the best the game has ever looked and performed for me. GSC absolutely nailed Cost of Hope and Update 2.0! 🔥 10/10 — back into the Zone! ☢️
