Mundfish's crazy-looking shooter Atomic Heart is just about two weeks away from launch, and the team has updated the game on Xbox Live so we can get the full thing preloaded before it hits Xbox Game Pass.
For Xbox Series X users, Atomic Heart is a chunky 78.6GB at the time of writing, so you might want to make sure you've got some SSD space cleared for this one. The overall file size may change slightly in the run up to launch, but for now, that's where things stand.
Once everything's all installed and ready to go, we've just got the wait for launch! Atomic Heart hits Xbox Game Pass on February 21st across Xbox One, Xbox Series X, Xbox Series S, PC and Xbox Cloud Gaming.
Our latest look at the game dropped last week, and it proved a very impressive showing from the dev team. The pre-launch overview trailer showcased about 10 minutes of gameplay from various different sections of Atomic Heart's game world.
Are you hyped to try this one out via Game Pass? Let us know in the comments!

Really looking forward to this one. Hopefully it's in a better state than my pessimistic view and I don't have to wait for a bunch of patches before playing on it. Hopefully some of that weird gypsy music from the trailers is in the game.
The wait...4-5 years I have been waiting and now it is happening!!!!!
Very much looking forward to this. Although I did have to remove some other games from my S to accommodate that file size. I have no memory expansions, I have to delete things I am not actively playing
Maybe don't download/play this game? It'll take your information and feed it to the russian and chinese goverment, and it's success will fund the war in the ukraine.
Not 100% sure on this, but it seems likely to be the case.
@Zochmenos There's a bunch of shady stuff if you google the game or studio, mundfish. But for me it's mostly the direct ties to mail.ru, vkontakte, gazprom, their non comment on the war and their old tos.
The game does look great though, so it sucks that it might fund the war and send personal dato to fsb.
@Zochmenos It's all pretty muddy, but the close ties to the goverment, the name changing and pretending to not be a russian studio (Robert Bagratuni, not his real name, previously held a high role at mail.ru) does it for me. Just a few too many red flags.
I get that they may not have much choice in the matter regarding their stance on the war, given that they might loose funding or worse, which I assume is the case for most russian studios doing high budget games, and that sucks. But going to great lenghts to hide that you are russian, while also not actually distancing yourself from their actions, is just a bit too shady for my taste.
I guess to put it bluntly, my reason for not supporting the game is that it seems very likely that sales of the game will fund the war effort. And I'm not okay with that. It's not necessarily the studios fault, but from the information I can glean, they seem complicit.
Multiplatform dot com has pretty comprehensive write up, and there are lot's of other bits around.
