Stalker 2: Heart of Chornobyl complete achievements list

Stalker 2: Heart of Chornobyl (stylized as S.T.A.L.K.E.R 2) is finally here, a full 15 years since the last game in the series was released. As part of that, players will have a ton of achievements to hunt down in the Zone.

Stalker 2 is a big game. With an expected playtime of 40 hours for the main story, and double that when all the other side quests and activities are included, getting every achievement will be a significant investment.

Another major factor is the behavior of the game’s factions, who work independently and may cause significant variation from game to game. This makes some trophies harder to hunt, while seeking out specific mutants also requires a little luck.

With all of that said, here’s everything you need to know about the achievements available in Stalker 2: Heart of Chornobyl.

As is to be expected in a game of this scope, many of these achievements can be easily missed. Additionally, it will take more than one playthrough to hit all of the required story achievements if you’re looking to earn them all.

With such a long runtime from start to finish, it’ll be a while before anyone is able to do that. Make sure to check out our guide to earning money in Stalker 2, or our guide to all of the factions, so you know exactly who you’re dealing with.
