Stalker 2: Heart Of Chornobyl developer GSC Game World shared a look at one of the title’s mutated enemies in celebration of International Cat Day.
The Stalker 2 developer shared the concept art of the animal yesterday (August 8), called the Bayun. It’s described as a “very stealthy and nimble mutant,” and that “for years, stories about it were regarded as mere fables. Bayun takes its name from its throat sacs, which allow the beast to imitate all kinds of sounds, including human speech.”

Stalker 2 is set in the Chornobyl Exclusion Zone, which was formed after the infamous power plant exploded for a second time in 2006. The area is home to dangerous mutants such as the Bayun, along with deadly anomalies.
“Discover the ever-changing Chornobyl Exclusion Zone full of dangerous mutants, warring factions, deadly anomalies and artefacts of unbelievable value,” reads the game’s website. The reward is extremely high, but the price you may pay in the end might be bigger than life.”
