Description
The Zone evolves. So must you.

Welcome to the most complete and immersive S.T.A.L.K.E.R. experience yet. S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Anomaly is a free, stand-alone mod built on the 64-bit X-Ray engine, reinvigorated and enhanced to deliver the definitive survival sandbox in the Chornobyl Exclusion Zone.

Whether you walk the dust-choked roads of Garbage, stalk anomalies in Jupiter, or run clandestine operations under the cover of Prypiat’s ruins, Anomaly reshapes what a survival shooter can be: open-ended, brutal, and richly atmospheric.

A Living, Breathing Zone
  • 32 Unique Maps from across Shadow of Chornobyl, Clear Sky, and Call of Prypiat, seamlessly stitched into one interconnected, explorable world.  
  • Smart Terrain & AI Systems bring the Zone to life: mutants hunt in packs, factions seize control of territories, and combat is dynamic, unpredictable, and deadly.
  • Day/Night & Weather Cycles with visual and audio enhancements push immersion to its limit.  



Choose Your Path
  • Story Mode: A rich, lore-friendly campaign that bridges the S.T.A.L.K.E.R. timeline and offers multi-faction perspectives.  
  • Sandbox Mode: Drop the narrative and shape your own legend. Trade, raid, survive. Or die trying.  
  • Warfare Mode: Join your chosen faction in all-out territorial warfare across the Zone. Bases fall. Frontlines shift. Chaos reigns.  



Hardcore Survival, Modular Freedom
  • Survival Mechanics: Monitor your hunger, thirst, stamina, sleep, and radiation exposure. Every wound counts. Every bullet matters.  
  • Equipment Degradation: Weapons jam. Armor fails. Maintenance is a constant battle.  
  • Scavenging & Crafting: Repair gear, cook meals, craft ammunition, and make use of what the Zone gives you. Or die for what it doesn’t.



Anomaly comes with hundreds of built-in settings to let you tweak the experience right out of the box. For more advanced adjustments, additional add-ons and packs are also compatible, offering even more than what the core settings provide. It’s your playground.

This is the Zone – more brutal, more beautiful, and more alive than ever before.

Really great game.

This is a really great stalker experience. But unlike the main games, the focus on this one isnt the main story. The gameplay changes a lot to the mainline games so it might be hard to learn thse crafting things if you are really new. In this game you can choose any faction, even some unlockable factions. Graphics are awesome, theyre really immersive. I really liked the radio too!. Really good stalker experience, it has a lot of gamemodes, survival, ironman, story, azazel mode, etc. This is really great and gives it a lot of replayability. Unlike the main stalker games, to play this game on Linux/Steam deck, you need to install some winetricks or protontricks. Is not hard to do and you can find a lot of reddit or steam forum posts on how to do it. Thats a bad thing imo, cus the main stalker games run out of the box on linux or steam deck. But this one, requires fixes to run. Not hard to do, but... It just doesnt work out of the box like the others!.

Defenitly one of the best mods!

I am so happy that nox exist possibility to install such a nice mods as anomaly easiily and officially! Original stalker game now already showing its age, but such a modifications brings a new life! Anomaly improves almost every aspect of the original game. The only thing which I want to see in anomaly is extended story line. I hope that GOG will continue to add such a nice modifications for stalker and other Good Old Games!

Better than Stalker 2

If you want the definitive stalker experience then play this, but you may need to edit some of the settings to tailor it to your level.
