Atomfall Previews Highlight Post-Apocalyptic RPG Adventure

International gaming press has delivered their final verdicts on Atomfall, Rebellion's upcoming post-apocalyptic RPG – and the creators of Sniper Elite have reason to celebrate. Reviewers were consistently impressed, highlighting Atomfall's unique blend of familiar Bethesda-esque gameplay and a distinctly original identity.

Critics describe Atomfall as a uniquely British take on the Fallout formula. Expect robust survival mechanics, a diverse arsenal of weaponry, and a compelling cast of enemies ranging from fanatical cultists to malfunctioning robots and grotesque mutants. The non-linear quest structure and immersive dialogue system further enrich the narrative experience.

Exploration is paramount in Atomfall. The protagonist's unfamiliarity with the ravaged landscape compels players to rely on helpful NPCs and tools like metal detectors to uncover the secrets hidden within the environment. Journalists lauded the game's masterful use of environmental storytelling and the rewarding feeling of uncovering hidden lore.

Interestingly, firearms aren't always a reliable option in Atomfall. Players will frequently encounter scavenged shotguns with limited ammunition, abandoned by desperate farmers or ruthless bandits. This necessitates mastering melee combat and archery, making these less conventional weapons crucial for survival.

Set in the bleak, post-apocalyptic landscape of northern England in 1962, Atomfall unfolds in the devastating aftermath of a nuclear disaster at the Windscale power plant. Players will navigate a vast and perilous exclusion zone, uncovering danger and intrigue at every turn.

Atomfall launches March 27th for PC, PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X|S, and Xbox One. It will also be available on Xbox Game Pass from day one.
