The video game S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2: Heart of Chornobyl received a major update called Patch 1.5. The update brings official mod support to players through the Zone Kit toolset. Game developers released these tools on the Epic Games Store. Players can create new content like weapons and animations with these tools. The mod sharing happens through mod.io and Steam Workshop platforms.
Two new weapons join the game's arsenal with this patch. The Three-Line Rifle serves as a lightweight sniper weapon for long-range combat. The Kora Pistol delivers heavy damage but fires more slowly than other handguns. A special version called the Night Stalker exists as a rare find. These weapons give players more combat choices.
The update adds a mutant harvesting system for collecting body parts. Players can gather eyes, tusks and tentacles from defeated creatures. These parts work as trade items that NPCs will buy for coupons. An NPC named Malachite teaches players the proper harvesting methods. This system creates new ways to earn money.
Other improvements come with Patch 1.5 as well. A new Electric Water Tornado anomaly appears in dangerous areas. More vehicle models appear across the game world. The stash window grows larger for better item storage. Ammunition types receive unique icons for easier identification.
The patch arrives during Steam's Summer Sale starting June 26. S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2 receives a 30 percent price reduction during this sale. The Legends of the Zone Enhanced Edition gets a 15 percent discount. These sales help new players access the game at lower costs.
