Stalker 2 Map Size
Many of you already know that Stalker 2’s map size is around 60 square kilometers, around 24 square miles for those in the United States. Just to give you a perspective, Fallout 4’s map is around 10 square kilometers, and GTA V’s map is 48 square kilometers–including bodies of water.
To make things all the more interesting, GSC Game World stated that Stalker 2’s 60 sq km map has been hand-crafted. That’s incredible considering there’s no procedural generation involved–which has unfortunately become the norm.
In addition, Stalker 2’s map is a mashup of 3 maps from the original Stalker Trilogy, i.e., Stalker: Shadow of Chornobyl, Clear Sky, and Call of Pripyat.
