ThinkFalloutwith a touch of STALKER.
With both PvE and PvP missions,PIONERis dedicated to action but when you are not taking to the battlefield, you will be able to use unique materials to craft hundreds of weapons or even dive into the deep story.
Set in an alternate-reality world where Soviet-era structures lie abandoned,PIONERis already being compared to games such as the aforementionedS.T.A.L.K.E.R,the Metro series and the more recent, albeit less successful,Atomic Heart.
This upcoming RPG has since been discussed over on r/Games and it seems as though many users are excited for this 2025 release.

“STALKER, Metro, Atomic Heart, PIONER…I love these Ukrainian and Russian shooters (and Czech and Polish RPGs withKingdom Come,WitcherandCyberpunk),” Paul_czwrote.
“I just hopePIONERwill come out polished and fully playable solo.”
Cleverbird agreed,saying: “Okay, I was ready to write this off as a STALKER rip-off, but it looks like it has more meat on its bones than I was expecting. I wonder if it’s an open-world survival type game or something more linear like Metro.”
Userbran1986believes thatPIONER’s map will be split into two zones with the left side being dedicated to quests, dungeons and world bosses whilst the right will be the home of PvP-focused fighting and resources needed for stronger gear.
