How to hide or stow your weapon - Stalker 2

As a seasoned Stalker 2 survivor, I’ve learned the hard way that a gun is not just a tool, but a beacon of danger in this radioactive wasteland. I’ve had my fair share of close calls, from a group of Bandits mistaking me for a juicy target to a Stalker taking umbrage at my mere presence.


In Stalker 2, your weapon is likely your most crucial item, yet it doesn’t necessarily have to be displayed prominently when interacting with others. If you prefer a stealthier approach, here’s how you can safely secure your weapon (or holster it).

How to hide or stow your weapon - Stalker 2

In Stalker 2, stow your in-game firearm by pressing the ‘H’ key on your keyboard. If you’re using a controller, hold down the ‘Y’ button instead. Remember, withdrawing your weapon again is done by repeating this action. It’s wise to secure your weapon upon initially encountering a settlement.
