The newest installment of the fantastic STALKER series, Call of Pripyat, has been leaked early to less-than-legal torrent and download sites recently. The leaked PC version is only in Russian and, according to the comments, will only install for those running Windows 7 (with reports of a registry edit allowing install on XP and Vista), but no one gets any DirectX 11 options. This comes at no surprise and leads one to believe that the leak is an internal/testing beta. The retail game is planned to release “Autumn 2009,” and it’s worth noting that the Russian release date for the game is believed to be October 2, so this leaked build might very well be near-final, just with some minor features missing.
