Whether you have just entered the Exclusion Zone in Stalker 2 or have already spent a lot of time in it, knowing about all the Stalker 2 missions, including the main and side quests, allows you to fully experience the game.

S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2: Heart of Chornobyl features a vast post-nuclear open world filled with many side quests and activities that, most of the time, only trigger based on the decisions you make in the game.

Moreover, with a point of no return, when you progress to a particular main story quest, you will no longer be able to return to the open world. Knowing about all the main and side quests really helps.

How? The main Stalker 2 missions list lets you track your main story progress and know beforehand which quests you should not progress before completing all the side activities and things in the game.

On the other hand, the side quest list helps you track down all possible quests you can get in the game, as you will be missing a lot of side quests based on your decisions.

With that being out of the way, here’s the complete main and side quests list for Stalker 2.
