Description

Join our initiative, show solidarity with the victims of the war, and help us do something important with a small gesture. Ukraine needs our help!


Chernobylite is a Science Fiction Survival Horror RPG from developers Farm 51.  Set in the hyper-realistic, 3D scanned wasteland of Chernobyl’s exclusion zone, you’ll take on the role of Igor, a physicist and ex-employee of the Chernobyl Power Plant, returning to Pripyat to investigate the mysterious disappearance of his fiancee, 30 years prior. 



Compete with the hostile military presence, other stalkers and supernatural creatures, as well as the harsh and unforgiving environment in your search to uncover the truth.

Get ready for a thrilling adventure of survival, conspiracy, horror, love, and obsession

Can you survive your fears?


Base Building & Crafting
Construct a base from which to plan your daily operations and excursions.  Utilise workstations to craft gadgets, create traps and weapons or modify existing equipment to your needs.



Resource & Team Management
Companions are key to your survival and the resolution of your journey.  Each day requires the careful planning and assignment of resources and tasks to your comrades. 



Stealth, Survival & Combat
Survival in the Zone is not easy, and each day brings fresh challenges as comrades die and supplies diminish.  Avoid detection with stealth takedowns or engage in open armed.  Danger lurks in every corner. 



Non-Linear Storytelling & Strategy
No playthrough is the same. Like your choices, the story is in your hands. Choose wisely whether to trust your comrades or not, use resources for survival or research, and confront conflicts or evade them. The future is up to you.

It's a game that exists

The story is super contrived to the point that it just becomes completely impossible to take it even remotely seriously and the game-play parts don't mesh well together. The graphics are great though.

Great FPS - Semi-Survival Horror

I'm not sure what others are playing, or if I have come in after many of the kinks have been worked out, but I'm loving this game. Pros: - Intriguing story - Survival-Horror is sufficiently scary and keeps me interested - Base builder element adds strategy to the gameplay - Voiceovers are very good (I use spoken-Russian, and subtitles-English) - Looting is not too prevelant but just right. If you are willing to put in the time and effort, it's easy to get enough materials to upgrade your base and equipment - Base and henchmen NPC management is engaging and your choices have real consequences - NO WOKE BULLSCHIFF Cons: - RNG missions are repetitive, but really unnecessary and enough materials can be found during story missions to largely ignore them except to give your henchmen something to do and gain a few extra materials. - Enemies (NAR) can see through bushes to fire on you, where you cannot - Enemies (NAR) carry hi-spec rifles that disappear when you loot them (just give them AKs devs, and have them break 80% of the time they are looted!) From the perspective of an aging gamer who loved stalking around Chernobyl and considers the Metro and Stalker series some of the best FPS gameplay available on PC, Chernobylite gets my heavy recommendation. Do not let this one pass you by.

Flustrating

Fun for awhile but gets old real fast. Game is too controlling making you follow one path. Main story line is boaring and of little interest.
