Atomic Heart release date
Atomic Heart has a new trailer with over three minutes of combat shown against all sorts of enemies. The trailer gives a glimpse at the weapons that can be used including pistols, machine guns, and melee weapons. On top of that, the main character has powers that give advantage in fights including being able to freeze and shock enemies. There is also the ability to make enemies levitate which makes them easy targets to shoot at. You can definitely see the BioShock influence.
There are a number of different enemies to take on as well. There are the humanoid androids that will attack close range, robots that will attack from range, giant bosses that roll around arenas, and monstrous creations that will attack in groups. The final few seconds of the trailer show an android break through a wall before firing a deadly, sweeping laser cutting anyone getting in the way.
The story outline of the game reads: “Atomic Heart is an action RPG game. The story is about all the things that could have happened in the reality of the USSR but didn’t. Technical revolution has already occurred, robots, the Internet, holograms have already been invented, but all these innovations are immersed in the atmosphere of communism, imperialism and confrontation with the West.
The protagonist of the game, a Soviet Special Duty KGB officer, ends up at one of the Complexes of the Facility 3826 during a massive robot control system malfunction. The game world consists of huge open-world regions full of lush Soviet nature and less spacious territories of the Facility complexes with its secret underground and above-ground labs, bunkers and robotic logistics systems.
Most of the enemies are a variety of machines produced at the Facility. Each robot was originally made to serve the needs of the Soviet industry or to help Soviet citizens in a daily life. The robots are implemented with a combat program that should be activated in case of a war.”
Atomic Heart is set to be released later this year for PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S and PC.
