Rumors were going around earlier that S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2 was cancelled, but then the game's developers, GSC Game World, said that the game wasn't cancelled and was still being worked on. That is not the situation today though.
Today GSC Game World has been shut down, meaning S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2 is now cancelled.
Luckily some former GSC Game World employees have started a new game developing studio, Vostok Games and they won't be bringing back S.T.A.L.K.E.R. anytime soon.
"We did not reach agreement with the rights owner regarding the use of S.T.A.L.K.E.R. brand, that’s why we made the decision to move forward as an independent studio with a new project. That day became our starting point for Vostok Games," the team said on its official website.
Instead of making the now cancelled game, they are moving on to make Survarium, which is a free-to-play online first-person shooter game that is the "next evolution step for the idea of S.T.A.L.K.E.R."
There is not much information on the game considering it's been in the works for 10 years besides the concept, concept art (pictured above) and that it won't come out until 2013 on the PC.
