Truthfully, STALKER 2 has already been postponed several times. There has been no further delay, then, according to the development team. Dec 23 is analogue of placeholder until we’re ready to share the new release date publicly.
The game will be available for pre-order on Xbox as soon as we announce the exact release date. Microsoft refunds the pre-orders for the games with no exact release date - that’s a proper procedure.
We had to postpone the release date after the war started - we announced it as 2023 during Microsoft’s Extended E3 Show. To clarify things, we contacted GSC Game World and received the following response from PR and Business Development Manager Zakhar Bocharov. It didn’t help that the Steam page of the game now mentions December 2023 as the expected release date. The website guessed this might mean a further delay of the game (likely due to the situation of Ukrainian developer GSC Game World), and the news spread like wildfire among the many fans that are waiting for STALKER 2. As it turns out, not only is Xbox suddenly refunding current pre-orders, but they’ve also removed the ability to make new pre-orders on the Microsoft Store. Yesterday, Polish website XGP reported that Xbox customers were receiving STALKER 2 refund notifications from Microsoft.
