Atomfall, a new open-world survival game by Rebellion, invites players to explore an alternate 1962 where a nuclear disaster resulted in dire consequences. Set five years post-event, players navigate a quarantined environment as an amnesiac protagonist. The beautifully rendered landscapes of the British countryside juxtapose the haunting remnants of disaster, allowing players to uncover deep narrative threads influenced by British culture, Cold War fears, and science fiction motifs. The game encourages exploration and a thoughtful approach to its storytelling, distinguishing itself from other titles in the genre such as Fallout.
It's a loaded question on the edge of a butterfly effect that allows us to wrap our heads around infinite possibilities.
Players assume the role of an amnesiac protagonist who awakens in a bunker within a quarantined region, tasked with unraveling the mysteries behind the catastrophe.
Atomfall wonders what if it was more than a three day event. What if it was an apocalyptic-level catastrophe leading to mutants, freaks, and open-world adventures?
The narrative is deeply influenced by British cultural elements, blending post-conflict Britain with Cold War paranoia, folk horror, and classic British science fiction.
