Stalker 2 Devs Aim for 60FPS on Xbox Series S
Stalker 2: Heart of Chornobyl is finally on its way, and fans are buzzing with excitement. After facing numerous delays, the game is set to launch in November on Xbox Game Pass and PC. For those of you with an Xbox Series S, there's good news from the developers at GSC Game World. Despite the challenges of optimizing the game for the less powerful console, they are working hard to ensure a great experience for all players.
Optimizing for Xbox Series S
Initially, GSC Game World was concerned about making Stalker 2 run smoothly on the Xbox Series S. The game is massive, with intricate mechanics and a vast world to explore. However, after years of development and optimization, the team believes they can achieve a 60FPS performance option.
Challenges and Solutions
In a recent interview, GSC developers shared their journey of optimizing the game. They had to squeeze every bit of performance from the system, utilizing Unreal Engine's features and adding new streaming options. This dedication not only benefits Xbox players but also enhances the PC version.

The Xbox Series S Dilemma
Developers have often faced challenges with the Xbox Series S due to its lower specs. For instance, Baldur's Gate 3's launch was delayed as developers worked to meet Xbox's requirements for mode parity across consoles. Despite these hurdles, GSC remains optimistic about delivering a solid performance mode for Stalker 2 on the Series S.
Looking Forward
While the Xbox Series S might not consistently hit 60FPS like the Series X, GSC is determined to provide a performance mode. This effort could set a new standard for games on the Series S, showcasing what can be achieved with dedication and innovation.
Stalker 2: Heart of Chornobyl is set to arrive on November 20. It's an exciting time for gamers, and we can't wait to see how this ambitious project turns out. Join Streamers Visuals to stay updated on game news and explore a variety of gaming designs, including emotes, sub badges, and overlays.
