Hello Stalkers!
The premiere of the full version of Chernobylite is fast approaching. Remember to get your disks ready for July 28. Until then, it is worth getting to know the game a bit earlier.
Yes, we admit - in not a subtle way we encourage you to purchase the game in Early Access. But believe us, it’s for your own good. Because only those who play the game earlier will be able to count on something extra later!
Igor vs Black Stalker
Before we go to the main menu, we encourage you to watch our new lore trailer!
The trailer delves into Igor's interactions with the Black Stalker and leaves you with more questions than answers about the mysterious figure. Nothing in the Exclusion Zone is what it seems, not time, possibly not even your own intentions.
Remember: the game will be fully released for PC (Steam, GOG, Epic Games Store) on July 28, 2021.
Feel the power!
As you may remember, we promised additional content in the form of free DLC for everyone who purchased the game from Early Access. We intend to keep our word. That is why we are working hard to deliver it on time. Of course, all of the DLC content is kept in strict secrecy, and even though you've been flooding us with questions, requests, and threats, we haven't revealed what's inside. But today we made a slight exception - we're going to show you ONE of the many things you'll get with your first free DLC.
Ladies and gentlemen, here is the railgun!
Those who played the first FPS games know perfectly well that railguns are real beasts that can wipe out any evil from the earth. It is no different in Chernobylite - this gun can do massive damage to our enemies. Remember the rule: stealth is an option. Just an option.
The Railgun Kinetic Cannon - that's its full name - uses the power of Chernobylite to create an enormous electromagnetic field that gives projectiles great strength and speed.
Of course, any beating up with powerful weapons comes at a cost, as building a railgun takes a tremendous amount of resources. Fortunately, they aren't impossible to get. It is worth spending time looking for them, because the reward - a weapon that allows you to fight without problems with heavily armored NAR units - gives you enormous satisfaction.
However, this weapon can be even better and even more badass. As with a revolver, shotgun or rifle, the railgun also has its own upgrade station. For example, the magazine can be modified to accommodate a much larger number of bullets. The standard barrel of the weapon can be replaced with a double barrel (it immediately increases the power of the shot, but it is very energy-consuming), or one that allows the projectiles to pass through walls. The Railgun can also be equipped with a device that allows you to charge the missiles before they are fired, which increases the ability to deal much more damage, especially to NAR soldiers.

After:
We've only listed some weapon mods because we don't want to spoil your fun too much. But believe us, a few moments spent on upgrades and the railgun turns into a portable tank. Railgun is already looking great. But if you think this is the only surprise waiting for you in the DLC, then you are very, very wrong.
That's it for today!
Take care, Stalkers!
