January 21st, Gliwice, Poland. Yes, we did it! We reached our campaign goal in less than four days, an incredible achievement beyond our imagination. Once again, we can all pack our backpacks, Geiger counters, and stalker’s equipment to return to the Exclusion Zone, as the gamers have spoken even louder! 

Add the game to your Steam wishlist to follow the game’s development.

Already, 1,400 backers have supported the project on Kickstarter, and this number is rising every hour. The initial goal of 95,000 EUR has been reached much faster than in the first Chernobylite campaign in 2019, where funding took almost two weeks.

Our current Kickstarter campaign is live here: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/thefarm51/chernobylite-2-exclusion-zone-an-open-world-sci-fi-rpg

Thanks to this, we can now focus on developing the alternative first-person combat mode, allowing you to play the game in any style you choose. Whether you’re a fan of classic third-person RPGs or modern first-person adventures, you should be comfortable experiencing Chernobylite 2 in a way that is more natural to you.

We’ve also reached our first stretch goals, meaning the additional support allows us to add some extra features and content to the game, including all first-person weapons from the original Chernobylite. Yes, Blaster, Crossbow, and Makarov will be there, alongside other known and beloved “toys”, that will yet again be available in your arsenal.

Also, remember to follow us on our social media (likes, comments, and shares for greater reach are welcome!), and we encourage you to join us on Discord.

So don’t hesitate! Let’s make Chernobylite 2 rock together!

ABOUT CHERNOBYLITE 2: EXCLUSION ZONE

Chernobylite 2: Exclusion Zone is a post-apo action RPG, mixing free exploration of a huge and extremely realistic open world, challenging combat, unique crafting, and team and base management with non-linear storytelling.  The main character tries to escape the sinister Exclusion Zone and return home, breaking the barriers of time and space and fighting the emanations of the insidious Chernobylite.

The story told in the game will make you fight to survive in the most dangerous place on Earth. Whether you become the hunted or the hunter depends on how quickly you can evolve, your ability to adapt, and the strategy you follow when exploring the open world of the Chornobyl area. In the daytime, you can see the Zone as an intriguing, exciting, or even beautiful area, but when dusk comes, the absolute terror starts and you have to face it every night.

CHERNOBYLITE 2: EXCLUSION ZONE – MAIN FEATURES

OPEN WORLD EXPLORATION

Explore the big and realistic open world of the real Chornobyl Exclusion Zone. Chernobylite has taken over the zone, transforming many of its elements, and people are trying to defend themselves against it using prototype technologies.

CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT

Create and develop your hero. Attributes and skills will affect combat effectiveness, as well as the conversation style. An arrogant muscle man with a big sword trying to intimidate everyone? Or a smart sniper who always finds the right arguments? The choice is yours.

DIVERSE COMBAT

Fight for survival with an advanced melee combat system or keep your enemies away with a diverse arsenal of firearms – gain complete control over your character. You can also use the stealth approach or ask others for help.

The combat system of Chernobylite 2 is a massive expansion of its predecessor. The introduction of advanced melee weapons fight and crafting system gives more diversity to the character build, strategies, and tactics you can create independently. Don’t forget that if you like to play at the pace of the original Chernobylite, you still can!

PLANEWALKING

Adapt your build and equipment to the situation with planewalking, which allows you to change things on the fly. You’re free to develop more than one character skill set. Are you encountering a situation that your previously prepared heavy melee build will solve better than your current ranged sniper? Planewalk and use another one.

TEAM BUILDING

Embark on the exciting team-building journey. Each of your mates is a potential teacher, ready to share their knowledge and skills. Assemble your team and discover the unique strengths and abilities they bring. The question is, will you earn their trust and unlock their full potential?

BASE DEVELOPMENT

Develop your base. There, you can create valuable items and upgrade your weapons every day. Assign your people to tasks, and they will take care of your equipment and supplies.

FACTIONS

Fight for domination and negotiate with factions. The Exclusion Zone is a battlefield that changes every day and reacts to your every action. Can you help them defeat the army of vicious monsters? And when old conflicts are revived, whose side will you be on?

COOPERATIVE MISSIONS

Experience online cooperative missions embedded in a single-player campaign allowing players to interact in various ways to achieve the goal.

Channel your inner grandma in this hilarious and chaotic adventure

London, UK – January 21, 2025 – Get ready for a wild ride in Grandma No!, coming soon from Super Rare Games and Wallride Games. In this chaotic and funny game, players will step into Grandma’s slippers where her day-to-day house chores become challenges where things always end up going off-track. 

In Grandma No!, it’s up to the player to keep things under control, or the house turns into a whirlwind of chaos; a range of challenges and scenarios that need to be resolved await. What chaos ensues when Grandma gets stuck babysitting her grandkid out of the blue?

The gameplay takes a turn when ‘simple’ tasks go off the rails. Taking out the trash may lead to somewhere unexpected, while cooking dinner could end up with more fire than flavour. Each challenge is designed to be wilder than the last, and new outfits for Grandma can be unlocked along the way, so she can tackle the mayhem in style.

As they travel through the galaxy exploring planets they’ll get to hear rock, pop, drum and bass, jazz, funk, soul and a whole lot more.
