Developer Rebellion has today dropped a gameplay overview of its upcoming survival title Atomfall, which makes its way onto Xbox Game Pass this March. We're getting Fallout, We Happy Few and of course Sniper Elite vibes from this one; the latter being Rebellion's most well-known IP to date.
Despite the loose gameplay links to its historical FPS franchise, Atomfall looks and sounds like quite a departure for the British studio. First off, it's very fictional, even if the idea initially sprung from the real-life Windscale Disaster of 1957.
"In this official gameplay trailer, we unveil the dangers and mysteries awaiting you in our gripping new single-player survival action game, Atomfall. Atomfall is inspired by the real-life events of the 1957 Windscale disaster and the story picks up five years later in a fictionalised quarantine zone that encompasses rolling countryside, valleys, caves and even a picturesque English village."
Of course, the team is taking lots of liberties with what happened in that five-year stretch after the disaster, introducing a "host of eccentric characters and cryptic organisations that inhabit the quarantine zone". We're on board for this one though - it's all looking rather splendid and we can't wait to explore this strange slice of British countryside in just a few short months.
That's right, we don't long to wait for Atomfall's arrival at all. This Xbox Game Pass "single-player survival action game" heads to Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S on March 27th, 2025.
Excited to jump into Atomfall, budding post-nuclear explorers? Talk to us about your hopes for this one down below.

This game looks 20 years old already
I am excited for this but I'm not really into survival games!
This looks very good. I've played quite a few survival games over the years and didn't enjoy any of them at all, I'm hoping this will be different.
If the mechanics are solid and the world immersive then I'm sold. Hopefully it's a little more forgiving than Stalker.
Looking forward to this ,🎮🕹️🎮🕹️
I’m all in on this. Can’t wait
I'm quite sick of nuclear waste games. Game looks great so awesome for those into the genre, not for me. The setting looks awesome.
A Pre-multiculturalism Britain is some wild fantasy setting now LOL
It looks like an interesting game, and I might check it out after some reviews.
