Ahead of the game's nearby Xbox Series X|S launch this August, Deck13 Interactive has shown us a good chunk of gameplay from Atlas Fallen; the team's upcoming fantasy action-RPG.
This is a current-gen-only title heading to Xbox Series X and S, and it's certainly quite a visually striking effort from the studio! The gameplay looks fast and fluid also, with on-trend colourful magic attacks pairing with melee combos to create a pretty frantic-looking combat experience.
Here's the latest on Atlas Fallen's "intoxicating" gameplay, straight from the team:

"Wearing the Gauntlet, a magical artifact that grants you extraordinary abilities, glide the sands and use your shapeshifting weapons and aerial movement to adapt your playstyle to each Wraith. The world’s 151 Essence Stones will grant you different attacks and effects for you to customize the build that suits you and matches the strengths and weaknesses of your opponent.
Keep improving and experimenting with synergies and combos to strive in Atlas Fallen’s stylish combat experience with an intoxicating game feel."
Are you up for this new-gen fantasy RPG? Let us know if you'll be playing it on Xbox!

I wanna play it but have to save my money aside for October. Gonna be an expensive month ahah. Spiderman 2, Alan Wake 2, Alone in the Dark, and I'm pretty sure there's two more I'm missing.
Thank the gaming gods starfield is out on gamepass.
This looks good though, maybe I'll wait for it to go on deal
@Zoidpilot4 Phantom Liberty and AC: Mirage??
@Chaotic_Goat that's it! Oh man Asassin creed mirage looks like classic AC, that is on top of Alan wake 2 for sure.
@Zoidpilot4 October is a banger month for gaming, I'm glad Forza Motorsport and Cities Skylines 2 are on Game Pass which will save me some money.
@Solidchief ooooh I forgot, those two games as well. Dam, there's enough in September and October to carry me over to at least half of next year, by which point more gamepass games will be out haha
Also, the dev team has confirmed that this will run at 4K 30fps (Quality Mode) and 1440p 60fps (Performance) on Series X.
The Series S will have one preset at 1080p 60fps with Dynamic Resolution scaling to keep the framerate as smooth as possible.
Now this is how you do a "next gen" game.
I pre-ordered this and I'm so excited to play!
Some Darksiders vibes in terms of combat which is a good thing. I do hope though that there are more diverse biomes in the game because as it stands now there's too much desert. Feels kinda barren.
Def on my radar but it's a case of "wait and see" before making a decision.
This looks like it’s got some Monster Hunter essence, combined with Too Human, and BotW? Could be amazing. I’ll wait and see. If it’s on Game Pass I’ll give it a whirl. My wallet is too stretched and my backlog too big currently though. Still haven’t delved into Elden, Cyber, or TotK… and that’s just 3 major releases amongst the plethora of other retail and indies I have yet to get to.
I’m gonna die with a backlog…. There’s just no way, lol. Hope my kids continue to be gamers! Maybe they can complete my legacy! Sheesh! 😂
@UndyingInsurgent95 ideally I'd like to see 4k/60 but we don't live in an ideal world so I can live with 1440/60 + drs.
Nice to know you're still as hyped as ever, will you be playing this in co-op?
@Cherip-the-Ripper I was secretly hoping for a splitscreen mode but alas, it's online co-op only :/
I wanted to play so bad with my boyfriend, but I guess we'll take turns on different saves lol!
What about you?
@UndyingInsurgent95 if I get it I'll be playing solo but the month's looking busy atm.
Enjoy the game 🫡
@Cherip-the-Ripper I'll be sure to leave my own review here, but I am somewhat biased when it comes to Focus-published games 🤣
Hope you get to play what you want!
@UndyingInsurgent95 focus entertainment is the mf 🐐🐐
They got a knack for publishing random but fun games.
Only got better since their name change as well 😮💨
@Cherip-the-Ripper This ^^ !
Banishers: Ghosts Of New Eden is the next one to look out for if you're a fan of Don'tNod storytelling. I'm just glad there is something for everyone these days!
@UndyingInsurgent95 actually not the biggest fan of Dontnod but their Vampyr game was excellent and the cinematic they put out for Banishers was amazing yh!! I had actually already forgotten about it within a week lol
I like focus entertainment so much I actually signed up for their playtesting programme yo 😭 (because you get free games)
I've only ever gotten an invite to go to their HQ for on site playtests but I don't speak french sadly, or at least not enough 🥲
I hope microsoft get some sort of gamepass deal going on with them, I really wanna play Evil West already, its sales haven't been enticing enough but it looks amazing and also playable in co-op!!
@Cherip-the-Ripper Omg same lmao! The playtest thing I mean xD
I got invited too but the email was in French but I still went ahead and applied. Never got a reply though 🤣🤣🤣
As for Evil West, I'm literally dying to play it, but like you, I'm waiting for a hefty sale (I'm the residential cheapskate ☠️)
I'm sure Xbox will give a 50% discount this summer, we just gotta be patient.
@UndyingInsurgent95
that's crazy persistence 😂
I guess we are the residential cheapskates 😮💨
Haven't bought a game since hogwarts. And I only did that because it was about 25 after the microsoft reward discount.
@Cherip-the-Ripper Before Hogwarts Legacy, the last game I bought was Jedi Fallen Order 🤣
Not that I'm picky, but when you live in Eastern Europe like I do, then you try to wait for a sale lol! If only Microsoft allowed their reward points to be used outside the US and the UK :/
@UndyingInsurgent95 according to microsoft's site it is supported in more than 230 countries. Including Bosnia
