Future of GSC Gameworld Uncertain |
Listed in: News Tags: gsc gameworld, stalker, stalker 2
News broke last week that GSC Gameworld, the studio behind STALKER, had suddenly closed its doors and shut down production on STALKER 2. Of course, the news was broken by a Ukrainian website (the studio is based in Ukraine) and there was very little in the way of corroboration, save one random dude on Twitter.
The studio quickly posted an update on its Twitter account denying the claims, but the Tweet was subsequently deleted. And that’s where we were last week. This week, things don’t seem to look any better.
The company broke Twitter silence early this morning, saying simply that the studio “will do our best” to continue development. That message doesn't exactly instill hope in the legions of fans waiting for STALKER 2’s release, nor does it offer any confirmation on whether or not the studio is actually going to survive. Whoever runs GSC’s Twitter doesn't seem to know either, writing, “nothing is certain” at the current moment.
We’ll keep you posted as updates roll out, but for now, it’s starting to look as though STALKER 2 may never see the light of day, and a relatively good indie studio will be shutting down.
What do you think will happen? Are you upset about potentially losing STALKER 2?
