\t\t\t \n\t\u201cIt wasn\u2019t my dream to do this film. But I really think it\u2019s important to share,\u201d Grygorovych said. \u201cIt\u2019s not about like, I really want to share something from my personal life, or for our team, as well. We are really not public people and it\u2019s hard to share something personal. But when this opportunity comes to us from Microsoft, we thought that it\u2019s important to share with the world a little bit more about how difficult it is to live in a wartime from the personal side. Because mostly people only see something if something terrible happens and everybody, I hope, thinks, \u2018Oh, it\u2019s bad.\u2019 But when you see specific people who can share some real story, maybe someone can imagine how hard it is and why any war is something bad. It\u2019s impossible for me to find some reason to start a war.\u201d<\/p>\n \n\t\u201cAt Xbox we were very aware of the circumstances surrounding GSC when the war began,\u201d Xbox general manager of programming and events Tina Summerford said. \u201cAs time went on it became apparent their situation would continue to be dire not just for them professionally but personally. Every day we see firsthand the difficulty and challenges of making games, but this was on a completely different scale. In late 2022, we pitched the idea of a documentary film. GSC had a story that deserved to be told and shared, and we felt we were best positioned to help them tell it. Once we began having conversations with Maria, Zak and Eugene, it was clear they had been thinking the same thing, and we collectively decided we wanted to make a documentary film together. We hired director Andrew Stephan, who was our director on our most recent documentary \u2018Power On: The Story of Xbox,\u2019 to help us get this right, and we could not be prouder to stand behind not just this film but behind GSC Game World and \u2018S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2.’\u201d <\/p>\n \n\tWatch the trailer for \u201cWar Game: The Making of \u2018S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2\u2032\u201d below.<\/p>\n \n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/variety.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/War-Game-Stalker-2.png?w=1024\")
