The Xbox listing for STALKER 2 reveals that the game will not only feature ray tracing but it will also be available on 4k Ultra HD. The listing also notes that the games made using the Xbox Series X development kit like this one will have "unparalleled loading times, visuals, responsiveness" as well as frame rates as high as 120f fps. This suggests that STALKER 2 will be a smooth experience as well as being impressive visually. This will be a comfort to fans as there was some disappointment at the STALKER 2 trailer being a target render rather than a guaranteed visual representation of what players would receive.

STALKER 2 will use ray tracing

All of the games that were showcased at the Xbox Games Showcase will be free on the Xbox Game Pass and this adds an interesting dynamic to the release of games. While many players will have purchased STALKER 2, the fact that the title is freely available on an expansive service may increase its player base. Furthermore, the fact that Xbox can offer games that utilize ray tracing and high frame rates for no additional cost may prove invaluable as the next generation of consoles enters the market at the end of this year.

The game has the technology to support a quality experience as well as an established fan base and if the title can reintroduce unique mechanics that players expect from the series, it may be a hit. With this in mind, a lot of players may pick up STALKER 2 when it is free for Xbox Game Pass subscribers.

STALKER 2 is in development for PC and Xbox Series X.
