Yevhen Hryhorovych, Project Manager and CEO of GSC Game World, shared his thoughts on the importance of atmosphere for the S.T.A.L.K.E.R. universe:
«The Chernobyl Exclusion Zone has always been one of our main sources of inspiration. We are happy to have the opportunity to not only pay tribute to the artistic aspect of S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2, but also to convey the feeling of being in the Zone in a different way. I would say that this artbook — is a lovingly crafted project that comes from our own lovingly crafted project, and that’s why it feels especially meaningful».
