S.T.A.L.K.E.R. developers GSC Game World have officially announced that they’re working on “Call of Pripyat”, the 2007 open-world shooter’s second standalone expansion.
Due for release on PC this fall/autumn, CoP is set directly after the events of the last expansion, Clear Sky, and tells the story of an attempted military takeover of the region.
New features include a new storyline, new characters, new monsters, more sidequests, a new player interface and, best of all, a new feature allowing you to keep playing the game even once the main storyline is complete, RPG-style.

They’ve patched the hell out of Clear Sky. It’s a much better game now than it was at release.
