Update: S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Legends of the Zone Trilogy is now available on Xbox One and PS4.
Pre-orders for a collection of console ports for the first three S.T.A.L.K.E.R. games have appeared at Japanese retailers ahead of Xbox's Partner Preview.
The details:
As reported by Gematsu, pre-orders for the unannounced PlayStation 4 release of S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Legends of the Zone Trilogy are now available at several notable Japanese retailers, including Biccamera, Neowing, and Rakuten Books. The game has a price tag of 6,578 JPY (approximately $44) and is scheduled for release on June 27.
In terms of gameplay, it appears to simply be console versions of Shadow of Chernobyl, Clear Sky, and Call of Pripyat, complete with their original graphics and content. Itβs unknown if any of the bugs or other technical issues from the original PC releases will be carried over.
The collection is expected to be officially announced at the Xbox Partner Preview livestream later today at 10:00 a.m. PT / 1:00 p.m. ET, as S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2 will be available exclusively on PC, Xbox Series X/S, and Game Pass later this year.
