Atomic Heart, a Russian sci-fi game developed by Mundfish, hasn’t been featured in any news in recent months. Initially revealed in 2018, the game has been quiet with little to no updates regarding its development process, marketing campaigns, and story details. Now, it seems that Mundfish has decided to remind everyone that Atomic Heart is still alive and well, yet still in the development stage.
The development studio has released a short gameplay trailer to showcase some of the new gameplay elements of Atomic Heart, as well as remind everyone what the game is about (if that might be of any help.) As expected, the trailer only reveals more questions than answers, causing eager fans to find out what the game is truly about and what all these gameplay elements are supposed to represent.
Taking a closer look at the trailer, there is a lot to take in. From a giant worm-like machine flying through the sky, to the weird suspended water bubbles, Atomic Heart looks like a promising title that aims to deliver a unique and one of a kind experience. Many say that Atomic Heart looks like a crossover between Fallout and BioShock, and that would certainly make sense given the setting and atmosphere the trailer has set along with the genre.
Seeing a new trailer pop up for Atomic Heart can be seen as a breath of fresh air for fans of the genre. Given the alleged controversial history of the game regarding its development process and Mundfish, many speculated that Atomic Heart was abandoned or was going to be indefinitely delayed. The trailer essentially shows that everything is currently (and hopefully) on track and the process is moving at a steady pace.
This isn’t the only piece of news that deals with Mundfish’s title. Earlier in the week, Russian gaming service YouTube channel 4game managed to take a closer look at Atomic Heart by visiting the studio and learning more about the game. In a video, the presenter talks in more detail about some of the gameplay mechanics and elements, including enemies, areas, the ecosystems of those areas and a whole bunch more.
