News | Teaser of second Atomic Heart expansion released
Developer Mundfish has posted images of the second expansion for Atomic Heart online.
A few months ago, the company released a first teaser of the second expansion in which geese play the leading role – that video can also be viewed below. The second teaser shows the game world where the DLC takes place, Limbo. This shows that the environments become imaginative and playful compared to the game itself.
According to the developer, players can expect “a strange world with opposing logic” where they will face new enemies using unique weapons. Players must figure out if they are stuck in Limbo forever.
The new expansion should be released sometime this winter and is part of the season pass. An expansion for the game was previously released called Annihilation Instinct.
Atomic Heart, released earlier this year for PC, PlayStation and Xbox consoles, was criticized by some gamers because the developer’s Russian ties remained unclear. Despite that, the game sold beyond expectations.
News | Atomic Heart expansion Annihilation Instinct announced
The first expansion for Atomic Heart has been revealed: Annihilation Instinct.
Last May, Mundfish already announced that an expansion is being worked on, but it has now actually been revealed. The DLC takes place after the end of the game itself. “Get ready for a journey through the new mind-bending Mendeleev Complex and the swamps surrounding it, and learn the truth about Nora when Major P-3 is pulled back into Facility 3826.”
According to the creators, players can expect new enemies that can change shape. Also added are two new weapons – the Secateur for ranged shooting and the Klusha for melee attacks. Also, the player’s gauntlet gains a new Techno-Stasis ability, allowing players to influence time.
The game, released earlier this year for PC, PlayStation and Xbox consoles, drew criticism from some gamers because the developer’s Russian ties remained unclear. Despite that, the game sold above expectations.
Annihilation Instinct will be released on August 2 and is part of the game’s season pass, which can be purchased for $39.99. After Annihilation Instinct, three more expansions have yet to be released for the game. Finally, Mundfish released an update to the game that added New Game Plus.
