MMO is in development at CyberTime System and the gameplay video below is actually S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Online, not S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2.

S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Online is currently in open beta but only available in Russia, but it does make sense. The official forum says that "Not multilanguage game version currently available.

The developer of the original S.T.A.L.K.E.R. game shut down at the end of 2011 but S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2's development continued. It becomes more interesting that now there's a S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Online. MMO fans will be excited.
