In recent weeks we've been hearing plenty about Rebellion's upcoming Game Pass title Atomfall - and now the game's "pre-launch" trailer is here ahead of its release for Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S.
This brief look at the title showcases the game's Lake District-based setting, punchy combat and unique take on a post-apocalyptic RPG - and we're more than ready to explore it all. The team also breaks down some of the key features coming with Atomfall later this month:
Atomfall features:
- A single player survival-action game, drawing from science fiction, folk horror, and Cold War influences.
- Explore a dark and foreboding world with varying environments and locations.
- Uncover leads through investigation, exploration, conversation and combat as you attempt to solve a mystery inspired by classic British science fiction such as The Day of the Triffids, early Doctor Who, and The Quatermass Experiment.
- Desperate high stakes combat blends expert marksmanship with vicious hand-to-hand combat.
- Craft items and weapons that may save your life, ransack ruined houses for supplies, and even unearth hidden treasures using your trusty metal detector.
- Define your character through interactions with NPCs, light RPG elements, and skill trees.
Just a few days ago, developer Rebellion touched on the "huge challenge" of launching day one into Xbox Game Pass, including reaching such a big audience on day one through a subscription service. It's not the first time the British developer has made use of XGP either - it brought Sniper Elite: Resistance to the service just a few months ago.
If you'd like to know a bit more about Atomfall ahead of its Xbox launch on March 27th, check out our links down below to a recent preview roundup and some fresh details on the game's overall runtime. Just a week to go, folks!

Can't wait. Not enough games set in these islands.
Looking forward to this one but it'll be April before I get round to it thanks to a little thing called AC Shadows!!
Looking forward to this one. I'm hoping the emphasis is not so much on the survival gameplay as that's the stuff I like least. Fingers crossed for Rebellion...
I dno about calling it an RPG, but I’m hoping it turns out.
Very excited for this one. I pre-ordered the deluxe edition as I want to support the developer to make more games set in the UK.
@jesse_dylan I would say it's a role-playing game to a degree. You have to investigate stuff, manage survival mechanics and level up gear. The developers describe it as an action survival game.
@Titntin Pretty much every thing can be tweaked.
Atomfall has 5 predefined difficulty levels but you can create a custom difficulty by tuning individual settings related to survival, combat & exploration. So if survival in general or just a certain part of the survival game play isnt for you then chances are you can tweak it so it isn't an issue any more.
@RiverGenie Thank you mate, that's really useful information!
