Instead, it is divided into multiple small districts that are disconnected from each other.
Each day has a main quest, after finishing it you use the Portal Generator to return to your base, here you can spend the evening to build new items and learn new skills from teammates, then go to bed, then wake up the next day and play another main quest. The game is divided into 25 days, basically the chapters. All teammates are met automatically in the story and you get a dialogue to recruit them or to send them away. Then you revive at the same day/quest when you died, you don’t need to replay the story. When you die you go to the “afterlife dimension” and spend Chernobylite to change any story decisions from earlier. You just need to watch out that you recruit all 4 optional teammates, but even if you miss this you can change your story choices retroactively whenever you die, so nothing is missable. The problem is simply that all these pieces are connected by the thinnest and flimsiest of threads, making the transitions feel all the more jarring.Welcome to the Chernobylite Trophy Guide (Achievement Guide)! This is an incredibly easy and straightforward platinum because all trophies come automatically from the story. And of course, there's a sense of accomplishment of crafting an efficient base of operations with a crew willing to fight by your side. Skulking around in the shadows and slipping past guards leads to some high-tension moments, and seeing a random phantom disintegrate or hearing a ghostly voice can make you question your state of mind. In fact, taken separately, each of these is a blast. That's not to say each element isn't well done and fun to play.
One minute it feels like a supernatural survival horror game, the next it's a science fiction thriller, then it jumps to a stealth shooter, and just like that it's a post-apocalyptic base building/crew management sim. If not for the occasional line of dialogue or visual cue (such as the massive duga radar array), the game could be taking place anywhere.Īnother problem facing Chernobylite is that it seems to struggle to find its identity. None the various newspapers, signs, etc., are in Russian either. Although the game's supposed to take place deep in Russia, the voice acting is anything but. There's a certain level of disconnect right from the start of the game when the characters begin to speak. It's the perfect setting for a creepy horror story, which would be great if the rest of the game went in that direction. Exploring the areas surrounding the Chernobyl installation and the nearby abandoned city of Pripyat is both fascinating and eerie.
While it's difficult to determine just how accurate this is without visiting the real-world location, one thing that can't be denied is that the game looks amazing. It also created an irradiated No Man's Land in the surrounding area for decades, so to recreate this area for Chernobylite's environment, the developers used 3D scans of the infamous exclusion zone.
On April 26, 1986, an accident at the Chernobyl power plant caused a catastrophic meltdown, leading to the worst nuclear disaster in history. With all of reality tearing apart at the seams, will you find a way to fend off another catastrophic event at Chernobyl? Or will a new cataclysm result in an exclusion zone encompassing the globe? Show more To survive, you'll need to scavenge the land for resources, crafting supplies from your makeshift base of operations, and find others that have been drawn to or trapped within the exclusion zone. Now, thirty years later, you've returned to the site, haunted by the memory of your lost love and determined to unlock the secrets still held by this radioactive no man's land. That same day, you lost your fiancée in the chaos of the disaster. In Chernobylite, players take on the role of a physicist that was present on the day the Chernobyl plant went into meltdown.
On top of that, the PS5 and Xbox Series X/S versions have received 4K resolution graphics and smoother full HD visuals at 60 frames per second. Using detailed 3D scans of the real-world exclusion zone, the game recreates an eerie environment made even more so by the strange events taking place there. CHERNOBYLITE is a sci-fi survival game that drops players into one of the most dangerous and contaminated areas on the planet: the Chernobyl Exclusion Zone.
