There’s no reason to wait to play Chernobylite 2 anymore. Today, along with Steam Next Fest, we’re giving you access to the game's demo version. It is the Prologue of the Chernobylite 2, which will take you at least 1-2 hours to complete, depending on how many different gameplay mechanics you would like to try and how much you’re into exploring the Zone. The demo lets you begin the open-world exploration. However (because it’s a prologue, not because it’s a demo), it’s a much smaller area compared to the Early Access version that will be launched on March 6th.
Within the prologue of Chernobylite 2, you’ll be able to get to know the first chapter of Cole Grey’s story, join the Planewalker program, select your class among 6 available options, train your fighting abilities on the Prypyat’s Lenin Square, fly the interdimensional vessel and explore the alternative world in search of Chernobylite. Ultimately, visit the Chornobyl Zone and build your shelter here under the guidance of a mysterious but well-known Black Stalker. And in the meantime, your combat and survival skills will be tested a lot. You need to prove you’re worthy of being a Planewalker!
Thanks to the success of our recently finished Kickstarter campaign, the prologue can be played in both third-person and first-person perspectives. Please note that first-person combat is still a work-in-progress feature added within the last few weeks. We recommend playing in the third-person if you want a smoother experience, and we encourage you to play in the first-person if you're willing to give us your feedback and let us polish this mode.
And the excellent news is that you can play the free demo now and later use your saved game progress within the Early Access version when it becomes available in March. However, to give you this opportunity, we had to keep most of the game content within a demo application, which led to the big demo size (about 115 GB of the disk space). We hope this won’t be a significant inconvenience and you’ll enjoy the time spent with the Chernobylite 2 prologue.
Early Access to the game is just around the corner. On March 6th, players worldwide can play it on Steam. We'll provide about one-third of the final game's content, but in terms of content and time spent playing, it's much more than the whole first Chernobylite game. Prepare yourself for the ultimate Chornobyl ride!
