Availability
We put this game to every storefront we collect. A market that answered not sold has told us something about the game; a market we never asked has not, and the two are never drawn the same.
Discounts
Every price cut of more than 20% we have observed, in each market that quoted one, with this game's chart position on either side of it. These are episodes, not a model: a sale is one event, and one event cannot tell you what the next one will do.

Good Hunting, stalker!

14 on sale1 answered “not sold”0 we did not ask
The 1 “not sold” market is read from the Steam price pass of Sep 2: that day the store answered for this game elsewhere and gave no price there. The 14 priced markets are the same rows as the table above — each the latest price we hold, dated here when it is older than that pass. The 0 marked “not asked” were not put to this store at all — either it has no storefront there or we do not collect it yet, and neither is a statement about the game. A refusal is a refusal on one day; a store can list a title again tomorrow.
For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 26 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 7 places towards #1, and the 2,402 moves with no price cut behind them went 2 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.

Without hesitation the worst FPS i've ever played and a complete embarrassment to the genre. Zero hit detection when shooting enemies and every enemy takes 2-3 clips to kill but can kill you in 3 bullets. Blurry mini map that doesn't center on the player. Tries to be Skyrim/ Oblivion in size but doesn't offer fast travel between locations. Just start to finish an absolute slog.
S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Shadow of Chernobyl is not just a game — it’s a whole era for me. It’s my favorite game from my childhood, one I always come back to. The atmosphere of the Zone is still unmatched: the eerie silence, radiation, anomalies, and constant feeling of danger create a truly unique experience you can’t forget. Every trip into the Zone feels like its own story, full of tension and unexpected moments. Yes, the game has its technical flaws, but they only add to its charm. It’s one of those rare cases where the soul of the game outweighs any downsides. For me, S.T.A.L.K.E.R. is more than just a game — it’s memories, emotions, and a part of my life. If you haven’t played it yet, you definitely should.
Legend
Это не Enhanced Edition в моём представлении. Я считаю что разработчикам нужно было перенсти данную игру на улучшенный движок Зов Припяти и добавить что-то из вырезанного контента. Как по мне, нет никакого смысла в данной версии игры, ведь есть оригинальная игра, которую получаешь бесплатно при покупке данной. Для не сведующих: S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Shadow of Chornobyl - игра 2008-го года, которая как Half-Life имела много вырезанного контента из-за длительного процесса разработки, но имеющая уникальную атмосферу.
игра полная ♥♥♥♥♥, старая лучше
☢️Возвращение в Зону...☢️ 🔥Эту легенду я затер до дыр еще в старые добрые времена🔥 🤕Казалось бы, ну сколько можно бродить по Кордону? 📢Но Зона зовет📢 ☣️ Меня настолько пробило на ностальгию, что я не удержался и прошел её еще раз,но уже на PS5🎮 И знаете что? 👣Эта густая атмосфера радиации, мутантов и душевных посиделок у костра работает даже на геймпаде👀 😈Тут всё такое же родное: Крики бандитов "Маслину поймал"🔫 🐓Щедрость Сидоровича,который готов купить артефакт за банку тушенки🐔 😆Те самые баги,которые мы все давно называем фичами🤫 🤏Ни одна современная игра до сих пор не может так же глубоко погрузить в этот мрачный,опасный,но такой притягательный мир,ты просто идешь под дождем,слышишь писк детектора и понимаешь что нашел аномалию которую разорвет тебя на кусочки👌 💀🤡10 Пидopoвичей из 10🤡💀 😎Удачной охоты,сталкеры😎
Прошёл на одном дыхании. Атмосфера просто невероятная — Зона живая, опасная и затягивает с первых минут. Отличный сюжет, интересные персонажи, крутые перестрелки и исследование, которое не надоедает. Это одна из лучших частей серии, которая до сих пор держит уровень. Если любишь атмосферные постапокалиптические шутеры с душой — обязательно играй. 10/10.
