Atomfall Unveils Gameplay in Pre-Launch Teaser

Atomfall: A New Gameplay Trailer Unveils Post-Apocalyptic England

Rebellion Developments, renowned for the Sniper Elite series, ventures into new territory with Atomfall, a first-person survival game set in an alternate 1960s England, devastated by nuclear fallout. A recently released gameplay trailer offers an extended look at the game's mechanics and setting.

The trailer establishes a post-apocalyptic landscape reminiscent of titles like Fallout and STALKER. Players will navigate quarantine zones, desolate villages, and abandoned research bunkers, scavenging resources to survive. Enemies include hostile robots and fanatical cultists, adding to the challenging environment.

Gameplay emphasizes a blend of melee and ranged combat. While the trailer showcases a relatively basic arsenal—a cricket bat, revolver, shotgun, and bolt-action rifle—it highlights weapon upgrade systems, suggesting a wider variety of firearms to discover. Resource management is key, with crafting recipes for healing items and combat tools such as Molotov cocktails and sticky bombs. A metal detector aids in locating hidden supplies and crafting materials. Furthermore, players can enhance their abilities through unlockable skills categorized into melee, ranged combat, survival, and conditioning.

The seven-minute trailer provides a comprehensive preview of Atomfall's core gameplay loop. The game launches March 27th on Xbox, PlayStation, and PC, and will be available on Xbox Game Pass on day one. Rebellion promises a further in-depth video soon, urging fans to stay tuned for more information.
