Chernobylite 2: Exclusion Zone reaches crowdfunding goal, announces toggleable First and Third-Person camera
Today The Farm 51 has announced that after 4 days of its Kickstarter campaign being active, Chernobylite 2: Exclusion Zone has been fully funded, and alongside the announcement also detailed that the game will have access to both first and third-person camera modes for its gameplay.
Commemorating both announcement, the studio has put together a new trailer for the upcoming "post-apo" RPG. This goes over a bunch of aspects that the team aims to change with the upcoming sequel, such as new weapon types, combat options and - of course - the different camera angle settings.
Chernobylite 2: Exclusion Zone is set to release sometime this year for PC (Steam), PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S. Previously the team revealed an RPG showcase trailer, as well as an earlier gameplay trailer, beyond the initial announcement.
ABOUT CHERNOBYLITE 2: EXCLUSION ZONE
Chernobylite 2: Exclusion Zone is a post-apo action RPG, mixing free exploration of a huge and extremely realistic open world, challenging combat, unique crafting, and team and base management with non-linear storytelling. The main character tries to escape the sinister Exclusion Zone and return home, breaking the barriers of time and space and fighting the emanations of the insidious Chernobylite.
The story told in the game will make you fight to survive in the most dangerous place on Earth. Whether you become the hunted or the hunter depends on how quickly you can evolve, your ability to adapt, and the strategy you follow when exploring the open world of the Chornobyl area. In the daytime, you can see the Zone as an intriguing, exciting, or even beautiful area, but when dusk comes, the absolute terror starts and you have to face it every night.
