Stalker Call of Pripyat, also known as S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Call of Pripyat, is the third instalment in the well-known Stalker series. The sequel to the bestselling Stalker Shadow of Chernobyl video game was developed and published for international audiences by GSC Game World in 2010.

Welcome (back) to the Zone

Stalker Call of Pripyat’s story follows its prequel’s plot, making our protagonist, Major Alexander Degtyarev of the Ukrainian Security Service, go back to the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant Exclusion Zone in order to investigate a mysterious helicopter crash site and further explore the Zone’s secrets. Will he survive and find out what really happened? The ending of this story depends solely on the player’s actions during the game.

The Zone is divided into three main areas - Zaton, Yanov and Pripyat, a ghost town located near the Belarussian border - and full of threats waiting for you at every corner. Bandits, Emissions, mutants, zombified Stalkers and multiple factions fighting for survival and control over the area make the mission extremely dangerous for Degtyarev. Use everything you can to survive!

Call of Pripyat is an open-world game that masterfully combines elements of first-person shooter, action game, survival horror and RPG - all in one-of-a-kind, post-apocalyptic Eastern-European environment. The game offers single player mode as well as four multiplayer modes, including online and local PvP matches.
