In S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Call of Pripyat for PC, the story is set again in the contaminated lands of the Zone - the area around the well-known nuclear power plant. It turns out that soon after the events depicted in the first S.T.A.L.K.E.R., the Ukrainian government found a way to reach the centre of the dangerous area. The secret ‘Fairway’ military operation was started, aiming to regain control over the power plant. The first group set out in accordance with the plan, and their task was to create detailed maps of the Zone. The mission soon failed, because most of the helicopters sent over the area had crashed without any apparent reason. This is the point when the player enters the entire story as Alexander, an agent of the State Security Service, whose goal is to find out about the causes of the Fairway operation's failure. Player explores three extensive areas during their investigation. The game takes the player mainly to the eastern part of Pripyat, the Jupiter factory, Yanov train station or Kopachi village. All the in-game locations are the representations of real-existing places, faithfully recreated in accordance with the actual land positioning. Exploration has become even more dangerous, because enemies have more unique abilities and their behavior was slightly altered. The game features two new monsters – the jumpy and durable Chimera, and the photophobic, common-looking Burer. Of course, the game features new interesting NPCs as well, encountered both in the main Stalker bases and during exploration.
