GSC Gameworld Developing New Game

.....

The Stalker: Shadow of Chernobyl developer reopens, and announces a new game that will appeal to Stalker fans.

GSC Gameworld's Valentine Yeltyshev revealed a new project that will appeal to fans of Stalker, that it will be a full price game. The game will also use assets and engine GSC Gameworld was working on while developing Stalker 2 before the studio shut down in 2010.

"We're pretty sure about our fans. The market we're in is quite old fashioned, they're not 16 year olds, they're 25-40 years old," Yeltyshev said. "We don't think free-to-play is the right model for the game we want to make. So we're making an old-fashioned, full price game, we think our audience will be happy about that."

Yeltyshev didn't reveal what the game's name will be as the rights for Stalker have been in dispute recently. West Games, which has claimed it to be made up of former Stalker developers, announced a crowdfunding campaign for Stalker Apocalypse. West Games previously tried to crowdfund a similar project called Areal, which caused a fair bit of controversy itself.

"I don't really know enough about them, but the story is quite funny," Yeltyshev said. "These guys were basically promoting themselves as being the STALKER team, that they were working on STALKER, but that's not true." He explained that the developers at West Games were actually working on a flash-based browser game related to Stalker that never saw the light of day, but never the Stalker series proper.
