Rebellion Developments' upcoming first-person survival game, Atomfall, takes players to an alternate 1960s England devastated by nuclear war. A new seven-minute gameplay trailer offers a detailed look at the game's world and mechanics.
Fans of Fallout and STALKER will find familiar elements in Atomfall's exploration of quarantine zones, villages, and research bunkers. Survival hinges on scavenging resources and facing off against robots and cultists in hazardous environments.
The trailer showcases a range of combat options, from melee weapons (like a cricket bat) to firearms (including a revolver, shotgun, and bolt-action rifle). Weapon upgrades are confirmed, hinting at a wider arsenal to discover. Crafting plays a crucial role, allowing players to create healing items and tools such as Molotov cocktails and sticky bombs. A metal detector aids in locating hidden supplies.
Skill progression is also highlighted, with unlockable abilities categorized into melee, ranged combat, survival, and conditioning. This suggests a degree of character customization and strategic gameplay choices.
Atomfall launches March 27th on Xbox, PlayStation, and PC, and will be available on Xbox Game Pass from day one. Rebellion promises another in-depth video soon, so stay tuned for further updates.
