The classic Stalker games are making a return to the spotlight. GSC Game World launched the long-awaited sequel, Stalker 2: Heart of Chornobyl last year. Now for 2025, the studio is releasing ‘Enhanced Edition’ versions of the original trilogy of games.
Stalker: Legends of the Zone Trilogy Enhanced Edition is a package that includes Stalker: Shadow of Chornobyl, Stalker: Clear Sky and Stalker: Call of Prypiat. The re-release will include visual upgrades like enhanced lighting and shadows, updated textures, improved models for NPCs, weapons and environments, as well as smaller tweaks like increased field of view.
The Enhanced Editions will be made available on modern consoles for the very first time too. This trilogy of games originally released between 2006 and 2009 and were PC exclusive. Classic versions of the game came to Xbox One, Nintendo Switch and PS4 last year.
Now, anyone who owns the classic edition games will get the Enhanced Edition upgrade for free across PC and consoles. Xbox Series X/S and PS5 owners will also benefit from new performance options, such as 4K/30FPS or 4K/60FPS with upscaling.
Stalker: Legends of the Zone Trilogy Enhanced Edition will be available starting on the 20th of May.
KitGuru Says: If you’ve never played the original games, then now is a great time to clear some time and give them a download.
