Over the last couple of months, audiences have been buzzing with the series based on the infamous nuclear reactor disaster that hit the small Ukrainian town of Prypyat in 1986. HBO/Sky miniseries Chernobyl has recreated the horrors of the tragedy, becoming the highest rated TV show of all time toppling even Game of Thrones
Recently a game set in the radioactive wasteland is said to be in the making and is purported to be released in Autumn.
Chernobylite will see players donning the garb of a physicist, who must scour the exclusion zone in search for his missing girlfriend, fighting off natural and supernatural threats along the way.
Craft your gear and weapons to protect yourself from the supernatural threats lurking in the zone. Decide what happens in the world around you. Ally or compete with other stalkers of the Chernobyl zone to survive. Each day brings new challenges. Plan your strategy carefully if you want to survive. Maintain your resolve and keep your wits about you – the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant is not what it once was. No one can foresee the horrors that may have befallen your beloved.
So as to capture the open world in its true spirit, the developers have actually visited the area on multiple occasions and ‘taken thousands of pictures’ with drone cameras.
We will keep you updated on further development.
