Key Takeaways
- STALKER: Legends of the Zone trilogy is coming to Nintendo Switch, with each game available for individual purchase.
- Prepare approximately 19.1 GB on your Switch for all three games.
- Shadow of Chernobyl takes up the most space at more than 7GB.
As a seasoned Stalker, I’ve traversed the treacherous wastelands of the Zone countless times, from the shadowy depths of Shadow of Chernobyl to the frostbitten outskirts of Call of Pripyat. The news that the STALKER: Legends of the Zone trilogy is finally coming to my Nintendo Switch has me jumping for joy!
Following several months of anticipation, GSC Game World officially announced that the STALKER: Legends of the Zone trilogy will be available on the Nintendo Switch starting next week.
This collection encompasses the games: STALKER: Shadow of Chernobyl, Clear Sky, and Call of Pripyat. While you can acquire and download each game individually, many gamers over the past twenty years have opted to play through all three consecutively for an immersive experience.
Prior to embarking on your journey to the Chernobyl Exclusion Zone, make sure to clear around 19.1 GB of storage space on your Nintendo Switch to accommodate playing all three games.
How Much Space Does Each STALKER Game Take?
Interestingly, among all games in the collection, it’s the initial release of STALKER: Shadow of Chernobyl from 2007 that stands out as the largest, requiring approximately 7.4 GB of available storage space.
STALKER: Despite including additional zones like Red Forest, Limansk, Abandoned Hospital, and Great Swamp, Clear Sky requires 6.2 GB, just as Shadow of Chernobyl does.
Ultimately, “STALKER: Call of Pripyat” takes up just 5.5 GB, a testament to its impressive optimization efforts that streamlined the game to include only three main locations (Zaton, Yanov, and the periphery of Pripyat).
In comparison to both Clear Sky and Shadow of Chernobyl, Call of Pripyat expanded the gameplay options substantially, offering a more immersive experience while also saving space on your hard drive due to its larger size.
The numbers published spell out good news compared to the less fortunate PlayStation 4 stalkers.
To play all three games on the Sony console, you’ll need approximately 35.7 gigabytes of storage space. Here are their individual sizes:
Preparations for STALKER 2
GSC Game World has been promoting the trilogy vigorously as they gear up for the upcoming launch of STALKER 2: Heart of Chornobyl.
For nearly ten years, the highly awaited follow-up has been under production, with quite a bumpy road leading up to its unveiling.
The game encountered several postponements because of the pandemic, and later had to be delayed further due to unforeseen circumstances following the Russian invasion of Ukraine in 2022, causing difficulties for the developers.
Offering the “STALKER: Legends of the Zone” trilogy for various gaming platforms serves two purposes: firstly, it generates income before the release of “STALKER 2“, and secondly, it allows new players to catch up on the storyline that has been established thus far.
