Screenshots don't really do Atomic Heart enough justice, but that's perfectly fine when there's a well-put-together trailer to do the heavy lifting. The team at developer Mundfish promises to bring "insanity" to its first-person action/shooter set in an alternate-history sci-fi Soviet Union.
Between the strangely adorable killer robots, the secret-agent protagonist chugging a can of paint, and other double-take-worthy stuff happening in this footage, they're on the right track.
...
Atomic Heart is planned for PC, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One this year.

Re: Atomic Heart
That might be condensed milk, which was (at the time I was living there) a common thing to encounter in cans. Kind of fits with the whole 1970s USSR vibe they've got going.

Re: Atomic Heart
Kind of Bioshock meets Fallout. With some goofiness thrown in?
I'd probably have preferred a new STALKER, but I'll give it a try.

Re: Atomic Heart
Got a really strong Nier Automata vibe from it as well. Both in the killer robot design, and the general overall weirdness.

Wow, Ok that was different. Looks like fun. Maybe a bit faster paced than Fallout?

That looks pretty cool, will keep an eye on it. And yeah, I would go with condensed milk as well.

Re: Atomic Heart
It made most of the cool visuals from the first one look like they were just set dressing. Watching the first one again, it looks like an evolution on Bioshock. Of course, I've only played the first Bioshock.

Re: Atomic Heart
Turn off the motion blur!!
I like what I see in the new trailer. I don't recall the first trailer other than I liked it. So...good enough?

Re: Atomic Heart
Kind of where I'm at.
I like all the little details. There was a lot that I wanted to stop and take a better look at. I do hope that in the final version you can interact with a lot more things.

from what I have read, I tend to believe this game is just vaporware, despite the compelling visuals.

Re: Atomic Heart
Looks like it’s an Xbox exclusive now? No mention of PS4/5 on that last title screen.
That’d be a bummer.

Re: Atomic Heart
Good catch. The Kotaku article indicates:
Atomic Heart does not have a release date yet, but when it does come out, it will be on Xbox Game Pass and PC on day one.
Maybe next year, maybe no go

Is the FOV set to like 35? Good LORD. That might be the first time a trailer made me nauseous.

Re: Atomic Heart
I've played the 2nd Bioshock since then. I stand by my former conclusion with the new trailer. And this one actually brings my interest level back up.

Re: Atomic Heart
Yes, it really does feel like they're evoking BioShock - I had the same exact feeling (along with wanting to hurl).

Re: Atomic Heart
It does look interesting. I wonder how the developers are getting around the current general reluctance to do business with Russian companies. Mundfish is based in Moscow, the last I heard.
