Following initial reports in 2011 stating that their upcoming project, STALKER 2, had been cancelled, GSC tweeted a complete denial of the cancellation as well as denying rumors that the studio had closed its doors. However, they then deleted the tweet and later said an official comment would be made on 12 December 2011. They stated, "We will do our best to continue. However, at this moment, nothing is certain." On 23 December 2011 it was revealed that they are continuing to develop S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2.
