These factions are then confronted to either Monolith or between themselves (such as Duty and Freedom, who are regularly skirmishing through the city), and can be sometimes also seen fighting in front of the Stadium, which is the final and the northernmost part of the level and serves as the entrance to the CNPP. As such, by the time Strelok reaches the city, Pripyat had already become the theater of large clash between the various factions that made their way through the Red Forest, including Loners, Freedom, Duty, elite Military stalkers and Mercenaries. The player is tasked to go through the city to reach the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant, and is given an opportunity to join a team of expert Loners in pushing their way through the city, but is also given a chance to explore the rest of the area before reaching the CNPP to the northern exit.Īfter the Brain Scorcher is disabled by Strelok, almost all of the Zone's factions rushed through the abandoned city hoping to reach the Sarcophagus inside the CNPP, which is also the location of the legendary Wish Granter. The city is nearly entirely under Monolith control, with the local leader Charon leading the defense from the Monolith headquarters in Palace of Culture ''Energetik'', located in the very center of the city. Pripyat is the second-last level in the game - if the Sarcophagus, Monolith control center and the rooftops are counted as part of CNPP, since they are all located there.

Up until the last installment of the series ( Call of Pripyat), the city is exclusively populated with ruthless Monolith faction, which is hostile to literally all other inhabitants of the entire Zone. However, with the apparition of the Zone in 2006, the Brain Scorcher psy-emitter broadcasting from four long-range antennas in the nearby Red Forest located to the south of the city made Pripyat completely inaccessible.

In-game, it has become a legend among stalkers, as it is rumored to be full of artifacts, and to be the only way to the heart of the Zone - Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant, where the legendary Wish Granter is located. It was officially proclaimed city in 1979, and had grown to a population of 49,360 by the time it was evacuated, in early afternoon on 27th April 1986 - the day after the Chernobyl disaster, which occurred in the early morning (1:23h/AM) of the previous day, the April 26. Originally built to serve as the living quarters for people working the nearby Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant (CNPP), Pripyat later became populated with younger inhabitants which were not connected with CNPP in any way, due to which it was back in the Soviet times often known as ''the city of youth'', since the average age of inhabitants was only 26 years. Named after the nearby Pripyat river, it was officially founded on 4 February 1970, as the ninth and by far the largest nuclear city in the Soviet Union (only the towns of Enerhodar and Sosnovy Bor, as the nuclear cities serving the Leningrad and Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plants are nowadays larger, as they have over 50,000 inhabitants). Pripyat or Pripiat (Russian/Ukrainian: При́пять, Prýp'jat́) is an abandoned city in northern Ukraine, located just a few kilometers south from the border with Belarus.
