This comes from Clanbase and TTLG, both of whom cite the same Russian language interview with studio president Sergey Grigorovitch.

The expansion is subtitled “Call of Pripyat” and is due out later this year. While S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2 was mentioned, no details were given.

The post-apocalyptic first-person shooter/RPG was released back in 2007, with “Clear Sky”, the expansion prequel, out the next year.

While we last heard that we would see S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Clear Sky August 29th, it was recently announced by publisher Deep Silver that it won’t hit shelves until September 5th, meaning the game has now gone gold.

No reason was given for the delay, but one could suspect that the developers are putting the finishing touches on the game.

S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Clear Sky is an FPS survival game for the PC, developed by GSC Game world, now expected to hit store shelves September 5th.
