In addition to this, it was known that in conjunction with the release of the game there would also be its landing on Xbox Game Pass from the first day, being a Microsoft exclusive (perhaps temporal?). However, after a rumor that appeared just a few hours ago, the hypothesis has spread that the title would have been postponed for several months, and only now has the real confirmation arrived from the developers of STALKER 2, who also reveal the new official release date.
