Chernobylite Complete Edition News

Early Access Launch Date Announced!

☢️Chernobylite Early Access Launch on 16/10/2019!☢️
We've just announced the Launch Date for the Early Access of Chernobylite!

Thanks to the backers support the game has been enriched with new locations, characters and even additional game mechanics. In October all the patiently awaiting gamers will have an amazing opportunity to explore the “Heart of Darkness” – a Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant itself, as well as terrifying environments of Kopachi kindergarten, the mysterious Eye of Moscow, and fragments of the abandoned city of Pripyat. Early Access will offer its players an endless survival experience with 8 hours of storytelling and free-of-charge access to the upcoming updates adding new episodes, locations, characters, and equipment to the game. The story in Chernobylite is non-linear, unpredictable and fully dependent on player’s decisions, which leads to many possible endings. That means even if you finish the story in EA, you can relive it again many times and in many different ways.


Watch the Chernobylite gameplay footage showcasing the components of Early Access version below but be aware that just after watching it you’ll need a long, decontamination shower.

It is also worth mentioning that on September 17th Chernobylite will run its Closed Alpha tests just for the Kickstarter backers. The testers will have a whole month to try the game, report bugs, leave their thoughts, ideas and wishes about the further direction of the project.


Developers are hoping that the feedback gathered from gamers and a close interaction with their community at every stage of the production will direct the further development in the right place like it happened before, and alpha tests as well as Early Access will help shaping the final version in the best possible way.


The full release is planned for the second half of 2020, so be sure to follow Chernobylite’s Steam (https://store.steampowered.com/app/1016800/Chernobylite/) and Discord (https://discord.gg/mehRmzY) to keep up with all news and updates from the developers who are always happy to engage in discussions with their fans. After Steam release, the game will also appear on other PC digital distribution platforms.

Demo updated once again

We are very pleased with the positive feedback from you and we want to thank you for all the surveys you sent to us. We are now solving bugs with which you are flooding us every day and we are improving things that irritate you. Here is the newest demo update:

- We have added support for high resolutions, including 4k.
- FPS should be about 10% higher and a lot more stable. It may be not much, but it’s always a step forward.
- We have solved a lot of issues related to the broad FOV. Widescreen owners should be able to play now in greater comfort.
- Most of the problems with New Game and Continue that you have reported have been resolved.
- Random crashes that you have reported should now stop appearing ... or at least appear much less often.
- Evgeniy says the time limit for missions is irritating. It takes some time to refine this mechanics, but to reduce its irritation, we have increased the limit from 20 minutes to 30 minutes. Have fun exploring!
- We had to temporarily disable hacking. Do not worry, it will be back!

Update!

Hello stalkers!

We are very happy about the success of the kickstarter, but at the same time we are working very hard!

The first effect is update on STEAM, which will be available for everyone today!

A short changelog:
- FOV change option (it will help players with ultra wide screens)
- Texture optimization (let us know if it solved your problems with smudging textures!)
- Your favorite Evgeny NPC is offended to everyone and will no longer distribute an unlimited number of lootboxes
- We opened a new building right next to the Duga Radar. Let us know what you found there!

Right now we are still working on optimalization with priceless AMD support.
