Ghost Town—Before you visit #2



Stalkers!

The streets of Pripyat are no longer a destination for a relaxing afternoon stroll. This is a place you come to die. At least that’s how the monsters living there will see it. If you’re going to visit Pripyat and want to live to tell the tale, you can never lose your focus.

Besides the lurking threat of hidden supernatural creatures, the Pripyat Residential Area is the only place in Chernobyl’s Exclusion Zone with a huge amount of chernobylite structures. Here you’ll find the largest chernobylite crystals in the Zone.



What horrors will you find inside? Make your way through the thicket of chernobylite and search the floors of buildings one by one. Enter Ghost Town on December 21.

Weekly Report #102

[h3]Hello Stalkers![/h3]
Another fantastic addition to the Chernobylite world in the form of a DLC will soon appear in our game. The pictures that we showed you in the previous report prove that we’re not exaggerating - this is going to be a big deal.

https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/1016800/view/3123806740758235242

We actually planned to surprise you by showing the contents of the new DLC before we officially release it into the world. That’s why we sent our correspondent to take some photos of the new location for our report. However, we made one miscalculation...

That correspondent in question was our good old Mikhail. Mikhail took the matter very seriously and with commitment. Unfortunately, when his photos reached our marketing team, we realized that it was probably the first time he had ever held a camera in his hand.

Here’s an example of his "skills": Apparently Mikhail was strolling between apartment blocks with his camera on, without even realizing.



But it’s about to get more interesting. We have no idea what Mikhail originally intended to capture with his camera, but he ended up taking pictures of his own shoes. Maybe he followed the recent Instagram trend and decided to photograph his feet? Who knows? We’ve spent so much time together in the Zone, yet Mikhail still remains a mystery to us.



Of course, as befits an amateur, there were also photos with fingers on the lens. Mikhail, however, is a very unique photographer - he managed to capture a photo of not only his fingers, but his entire hand. And at the worst possible moment! Damn it, Mikhail, did you hide something on purpose?!



Mikhail also discovered the pure bliss of taking a selfie. Let us reiterate: we never asked for this. The good thing is he took the photograph against the background of… well…what is that exactly? It kind of looks like a piece of a basketball court.



We know very well that Mikhail enjoys skulking around the bushes. It was not required on this particular mission, yet he did it anyway. Force of habit, I guess.



The last photo is absolutely perfect because it shows the new location from a slightly wider perspective. Well… it would be perfect if Mikhail knew how to use the autofocus option.



We hope we whet your appetite a little bit for the upcoming DLC. Expect more information soon. And Mikhail won’t be taking any more photographs for our marketing team anytime soon. That’s a promise!

[h3]That's it for today![/h3]
Take care, Stalkers!

Ghost Town—Before you visit #1



Stalkers!

Have you heard of the Pripyat Residential Area before? It was a symbolic place. One of the nuclear cities of the “peaceful atom” era. Unfortunately, the industry that gave Pripyat its purpose ultimately was responsible for its demise.

With the upcoming free content update, Ghost Town, you’ll be able to visit the neighborhood, now nothing more than a graveyard of dreams. The area isn’t safe either. Are you brave enough to cross the river and discover the unexpected? Make sure you watch your step when crossing—the river is filled with chernobylite crystals.



Come and walk over the bridge, see what’s on the other side. Enter Ghost Town on December 21.

Weekly Report #101

[h3]Hello Stalkers![/h3]
In the previous report, we gave you a riddle. We wondered if you could recognize the location in the pixelated image that will be featured in the upcoming DLC. Most of your answers were correct. Yes, it was the "Lazurny" Pool (Басейн "Лазурний") located in the 3rd microdistrict of the city of Pripyat. As a reward, we will tell you a bit about this place.



The inhabitants of Pripyat, like almost everyone in the Soviet Union, were actively involved in sports and led a healthy lifestyle. The city had two football stadiums, and numerous sports clubs. The "Lazurny" swimming pool was one of the largest sports facilities in Pripyat.



The pool was built in the mid 70's. The building is divided into two parts: a gymnasium and a swimming pool. In addition to that, the complex has five swimming lanes and two diving towers, as well as a gym for gymnastics (a basketball court or a small football pitch).



"Lazurny" was not abandoned, unlike most of the other buildings and facilities in the city. In the aftermath of the Chernobyl disaster the swimming pool was still open and served liquidators until 1998. After the liquidation operations in Pripyat were finished, the swimming pool was finally closed. Its reopening was prevented by the condition of the building, which had not been repaired for a long time. Despite this, it is considered to be one of the cleanest places in Pripyat in terms of radiation.



The "Lazurny" swimming pool is not only a hot tourist attraction. Recently it has been popularized by pop culture. For example, you can see it in the music video "Marooned" by Pink Floyd, as well as in the HBO mini-series "Chernobyl". However, it appears most often in video games, like in the Call of Duty games. And now it will be in Chernobylite as well.
