Cole Grey, a former military and security guard, lives in a reality where the economy and industry are based entirely on a substance called Chernobylite. With its help, people have made a real leap in civilization. However, the construction of the utopia has been paid for by massive unemployment, pushing people like Cole to the margins of society. Due to severe financial problems, he joins the mysterious “Planewalker” initiative to provide for his family.
It quickly becomes apparent that there is a shortage of Chernobylite in Cole's universe, and the solution is the morally questionable initiative that involves traveling to parallel worlds in search of the mineral and obtaining it by any means possible. In addition, the Planewalker service requires appropriate genetic modifications. Cole must, therefore, physically absorb the essence of chernobylite and, to increase his physical and intellectual capabilities, lose a part of his humanity. However, seeing no other options for himself, he agrees to the bloody and dangerous service, which results in him ending up trapped in the most sinister place in the world: the Chornobyl Exclusion Zone. There, he meets a Black Stalker, the Zone's dark guide and silent ruler.
Our current Kickstarter campaign is live here. Thanks to this, we can now focus on developing the alternative first-person combat mode, allowing you to play the game in any style you choose. Whether you're a fan of classic third-person RPGs or modern first-person adventures, you should be comfortable experiencing Chernobylite 2 in a way that is more natural to you.
Chernobylite 2 has just reached the 170% level of funding on the Kickstarter and there’s still a week to back the project in the campaign that achieved another stretch goal. Thanks to this, the game will receive extra locations for playing coop and solo missions.
Soon, all Kickstarter backers will get access to the demo and Beta version of the game. We will now start sending Steam Demo keys to media and influencers, so you can expect the first game previews soon!
Chernobylite 2 will be released on Steam in Early Access on March 6th, similar to the first part in 2019, which was awarded the Top Early Access Platinum Graduate on Steam.
Remember to follow us on our social media (likes, comments and shares for greater reach are welcome!), and we encourage you to join us on Discord.
Add the game to your Steam wishlist to follow the game’s development.
