Game Developers Conference 2023 kicks off on March 20 and runs until March 24. This usually isn't your typical video game event with new announcements, as it is mainly aimed towards the people involved in making our games.

Still, there usually comes some news from various keynotes about innovating tech and the titles that use it. Now it has been confirmed that one of the games that will be at the event is GSC Game World's S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2: Heart of Chornobyl. The studio will "present an exclusive look at Stalker 2, present today's workflow challenges in the facial animation and localization process" and are also going to talk about "adopting generative AI technology" from Nvidia.

This will take place on March 23, and as usual, you will be able to read all about it here at Gamereactor. S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2: Heart of Chornobyl is planned for a release later this year, but was originally slated for April last year. Russia's war against Ukraine made this impossible though, for obvious reasons.
