There will be plenty of hours for you to sink into the game if you’re concentrating on the main quest alone. There are dedicated side missions available as well, which will help you unlock more rewards and get a grasp of the overall lore of the latest Stalker adventure.

All main missions in Stalker 2

It’s very easy to understand which missions are part of the main storyline. They will be marked as orange exclamation points on the map, and it goes without saying that you’ll want to complete them eventually (unless you don’t want to finish Stalker 2).

Side missions will be marked in blue on the map, and they don’t usually appear on their own. Interacting with the NPCs will often unlock your quests, and some of them have different outcomes as well.

Playing the side quests might not be mandatory, but you’ll want to do them. They’re an excellent source of gaining important resources that can be helpful in clearing the main quests. Some of them, like Seek and You Shall Find, will fetch you rare weapons, blueprints, and more.
