Why play S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2 in the cloud

S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2: Heart of Chornobyl is a survival shooter set in a huge open Exclusion Zone. Anomalies, mutants, emissions and changing weather are built on Unreal Engine 5, which makes it one of the most demanding games of recent years.

The official recommendation for 1440p at 60 FPS is an RTX 4070 and 32 GB of RAM, and the game takes about 160 GB on disk. In the cloud, the machine covers all of that.

  • The recommended 32 GB of RAM is already on the machine
  • No 160 GB download
  • 1440p High on an RTX 4070 Ti and up
