There's seemingly a market for horror games set in or around the Exclusion Zone where the Chernobyl disaster took place in 1986. Titles such as S.T.A.L.K.E.R. and Chernobylite capture the gloomy nature of the post-nuclear incident, though the latter is perhaps less known than the former.

In a recent report published over on Bloody Disgusting, fans of the mysterious indie title Chernobylite can enjoy the latest patch, which went live recently. The new update not only fixes a few bugs, but also brings with it "Monster Hunt," an additional game mode that sees players hunting one of three new enemies. In the brief trailer uploaded to All In! Games' YouTube channel a couple of days ago, the new irradiated monsters take the form of the Chernohost, Overgrown Duster, and Ancient Shadow, and it's up to the player to defeat the one that spawns.
