Rebellion has been busy working on ‘Atomfall,’ a survival-action game that’s coming to the PlayStation 5 on March 27. If you’re interested in games that mix survival with action, you might want to keep an eye on this one!
Inspired by real-life events, ‘Atomfall’ takes place five years after the Windscale nuclear disaster in Northern England. In this game, you will explore a fictional quarantine zone where you need to scavenge, craft, barter, and fight. You’ll also navigate conversations in a uniquely British countryside setting filled with unusual characters, mysticism, cults, and rogue government agencies. Developed by Rebellion, the creators behind ‘Sniper Elite’ and ‘Zombie Army,’ ‘Atomfall’ will push you to uncover the truth behind these strange occurrences.
Embrace the Mystery
Delve into interconnected stories through exploration, conversation, investigation, and combat, where the outcomes depend on the choices you make. The alluring yet perilous British countryside, with its lush green hills and rural villages, hides many dangers.
Survival Essentials
To survive, you must hunt for supplies, craft weapons, and defend yourself with whatever you can find! Every encounter is a test of your survival skills.
Features of Atomfall
-
Intense Combat: With weaponry and ammo being in short supply, each fight will require you to mix precise shooting with close-quarters combat. Keeping calm under pressure is crucial, as is having enough energy left for when a melee weapon like a cricket bat could save the day.
-
Enigmatic Landscape: The seemingly serene British countryside is more than meets the eye. As you traverse cult-influenced ruins, natural caves, and secret bunkers, the eerie atmosphere will keep you on edge.
- Reimagining Reality: ‘Atomfall’ offers a fictional twist on historical events by blending science fiction, folk horror, and Cold War elements, creating a world that is both hauntingly familiar and entirely novel.
As the world of ‘Atomfall’ unfolds, expect to encounter images that capture its desolate beauty and unsettling mystery. The game turns real-world inspiration into an intriguing and challenging escape into a warped slice of history. If you’re up for an adventure packed with suspense, make sure you check out ‘Atomfall’ this March on the PS5.
