In order to access DLC content in Stalker 2, you need to put in some work and unlock each DLC item one at a time.
Stalker 2: Heart of Chornobyl features a vast array of additional content through its DLCs and pre-order bonuses. These bonuses provide players with new weapons and armor that enhance their experience as they venture through the Zone. Unlocking and accessing these bonus items can be a bit tricky at first. However, if you are aware of the right steps, you will be enjoying the extra goodies that the game has to offer in no time.
In this article, we will break down what you need to do to access any pre-order or other bonuses in Stalker 2: Heart of Chornobyl.
How Can You Unlock DLC in Stalker 2
The DLC items, including pre-order bonuses and deluxe edition content, are locked behind the “Seek, and You Shall Find” side mission. To unlock this mission, you first need to complete the main mission called “A Needle in a Haystack” in Zalissya. Once you have unlocked the former, you will be able to locate the Journalist Stashes that are scattered throughout the map.
The Journalist Stashes are hidden throughout the Zone. Each of these stashes contains one DLC item. You can use your in-game map to find the locations of these stashes. Each stash will have a unique item. For players who pre-ordered the game or purchased the Deluxe or Ultimate editions of Stalker 2, they will have access to special bonus items. The Journalist Stashes also contain these items. For example, the Maze Journalist Stash holds the Tourist Suit, while the Northern Checkpoint stash houses the Viper Monolith rifle.
Once you’ve located the Journalist Stashes, you’ll need to retrieve the items from each one. This can be a bit of a challenge because some stashes, like the Zalissya Journalist’s Stash, are in hard-to-reach places. Dangerous anomalies and mutants may also guard them. Be prepared for combat and use your resources wisely as you journey to collect the Journalist’s Stashes.
After collecting all the DLC items, equip them to enhance your gameplay experience. These items can give you a significant advantage in the Zone. This includes benefits like providing better protection and increased firepower in Stalker 2: Heart of Chornobyl.
