The international gaming press has released their final previews for Atomfall the upcoming post-apocalyptic RPG developed by Rebellion, the creators of Sniper Elite. Reviewers were impressed, noting that Atomfall draws heavily from Bethesda’s iconic projects while carving out its own identity.

According to critics, Atomfall feels like a British take on Fallout. The game features survival mechanics, a wide array of weapons, and a variety of enemies, including cultists, robots, and mutants. Additionally, players can expect non-linear quests and an engaging dialogue system that adds depth to the narrative.

Exploration plays a central role in Atomfall The protagonist is unfamiliar with the world around them, relying on NPCs and tools like metal detectors to uncover secrets scattered throughout the environment. Journalists praised the emphasis on environmental storytelling and hidden discoveries.

Interestingly, reviewers noted that firearms are not always reliable in Atomfall Players will often stumble upon shotguns with only a few rounds left, abandoned by farmers or bandits. As a result, melee weapons and bows become essential tools for survival.

Set in northern England in 1962, Atomfall takes place in the aftermath of a nuclear disaster at the Windscale power plant. Players will explore a sprawling exclusion zone filled with danger and intrigue.

Atomfall is set to launch on March 27 for PC, PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X|S, and Xbox One. The game will be available on Xbox Game Pass from day one.
