Atomfall: New Gameplay Trailer Unveils Post-Apocalyptic England
Rebellion Developments' upcoming first-person survival game, Atomfall, plunges players into a chilling alternate 1960s England devastated by nuclear catastrophe. A recent seven-minute gameplay trailer offers a glimpse into the game's core mechanics.
Fans of Fallout and STALKER will find familiar elements in Atomfall's post-nuclear landscape. The trailer showcases exploration of quarantine zones, desolate villages, and mysterious research bunkers. Survival hinges on resource scavenging, a crucial element as players confront hostile robots and fanatical cultists, while navigating hazardous environments.
The gameplay footage highlights a blend of melee and ranged combat. While the initial weapon selection appears modest (a cricket bat, revolver, shotgun, and bolt-action rifle), the trailer emphasizes weapon upgrades and hints at a broader arsenal awaiting discovery. Crafting plays a vital role, allowing players to create healing items and tactical tools such as Molotov cocktails and sticky bombs. A metal detector aids in locating hidden supplies and crafting materials.
Character progression is facilitated through training manuals and unlockable skills categorized into melee, ranged combat, survival, and conditioning. This system allows for player specialization and strategic adaptation to the game's challenges.
Atomfall is set for release on March 27th for Xbox, PlayStation, and PC, launching day one on Xbox Game Pass. Rebellion promises another in-depth video soon, so stay tuned to their social media channels for further updates.
