[Rumor] According to Insider Gaming's senior editor, S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2: Heart of Chornobyl's review embargo lifts on Wednesday at 2pm GMT/9am ET, 2 hours before the game officially releases (sh.itjust.works)

If true that does not bode well. The system requirements were already suspicious but very late review embargo is a huge red flag.

Combined with the news of an apparently massive first-day patch this seems like a game for patient gamers. Basically like the first 3.

It's a day1 release for Xbox Gamepass. If you want to try it out, just get the Gamepass. And if you don't like it, you can request your money back from Microsoft - no questions asked. Worked flawlessly for about 2 years or so for me.
