Stalkers!

We present you a list of changes included in today's update:

Events.

Introducing a new in-game event - «Hive»!

Delve into the dark secrets of an abandoned laboratory and find out what events led to the disaster on Vesuvius.

The event is available from level 60. To access the dungeon, you need to talk to Simonov in the «Aegis» camp.

«The whole complex is astonishing in its size and terrifies anyone who somehow got inside with its secrets. Many laboratory rooms, endless tunnels and corridors, where once Soviet man painstakingly developed science... Now it is a trap. A tomb that is in no hurry to reveal its secrets. But ready to show the unknown variety of forms and absorb anyone who steps on the territory of the scientific complex. Exploring every centimeter of which, going lower and lower, getting farther and farther, it becomes very clear - there is no way back. It remains only to move forward - into the embrace of this nightmare. And the nightmare, meanwhile, is already waiting for the appearance of the most tenacious seekers of truth, who managed to get so deep.»

We recommend that you thoroughly prepare before going. Since there is no electricity in some areas of the complex, take flashlights.
