Description

Buying this game will get you both the original version and the Enhanced Edition.


Great Emission, the biggest anomalous energy blowout from the times of Second Incident at The Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant, has shaken the world again and reshaped the Zone. To investigate its cause and and prevent future cataclysms is your only chance to survive in S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Clear Sky. 

WAR OF FACTIONS


With the anomalous activity at its maximum, the unstable Zone continues to tremor with outbursts. The transformation of the Zone map destabilizes the fragile balance of forces in the Zone. Hostilities for the new territories, artifact fields and spheres of influence flare up among groups. Feuds and friendships are left behind – now, everyone watches out only for themselves. The Faction War has begun. To survive, join one of the parties and knock out opponents over the Cordon... Or benefit from working for all the factions at once, like a true mercenary. 

NEW PATHS


The safe and trusted pathways are no more. Known places disappear in impenetrable fields of anomalies, stalkers and entire expeditions vanish or remain trapped within. Mysterious territories that have been lost since the appearance of the Zone are opening up, calling for explorers. Your mission is to become a pioneer and explore all the new areas that have become accessible in "Clear Sky"! 

MYSTERIES OF THE PAST


As a mercenary named Scar, play a key role in Strelok’s fate and discover new details to the original game story, revealing its major secrets. Visit the familiar places as they were before the original game starts and witness the events that shaped the Zone to the years ahead. 

 

Game features: 
 

  • A prequel to S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Shadow of Chornobyl, that reveals the backstory of the Zone, familiar characters and locations.
  • New types of equipment and weapons: HPSS-1m, hunting rifle, RP-74.
  • New locations: Swamps, Red Forest, Limansk and Abandoned Hospital, full of new stories and tasks.
  • An advanced upgrade system for weapons and armor with technicians, allowing you to improve and customize your favorite pieces.
  • Player's actions can affect the balance of power in the Zone and the influence of factions.
  • A dozen of new anomalies and artifacts, and a new artifact hunting system utilizing detectors.
  • Improved graphics, interface and AI, making the journey through the sinister radioactive lands even more convenient.

Note: This game may require additional serial key for multiplayer mode. In case it is not automatically generated in your GOG.com library (open it via website → select the game → More → Serial Keys), please reach out to our Support team.

Worth your time my friend, maybe SoC is better but this is still good old STALKER game. P.S. Freedom sucks :P

Actually pretty good but not terrible

Clear sky was a pretty good game but not great. there's some stuff that bothers me like bugs (even though I never experience too many) and the story. But there is some stuff I love about this game that makes me go back to it such as faction warfare. I love this idea but it could be polished a bit more but nothing mods cant do. the repair system is here and it saves the day. overall, this game is actually pretty good but not great. if you want a better experience, PLEASE GET SRP OR OTHER MODS THAT REDUCE THE BUGS. but besides the caveats, the game is pretty good 8/10 (get mods...seriously)

The DEVs of this game trolled you

I really enjoy Shadow of Chernobyl, and I'm looking forward to playing Call of Pripyat and Heart of Chornobyl, but this game sucked. The moment to moment gameplay can be fun, exploring the Zone, getting into tactical shootouts, and hunting for artifacts, but this game wants to troll you. Opening to the second area? Suppressing machine gun fire that almost insta-kills you. Being careful in an investigation sequence? The game takes control away from you to let yourself be stupidly flash banged and your equipment stolen. Clear out a bandit area? They respawn, what do you mean my faction should take over that base? This game is just undercooked and troll-y.
