This survival game from Rebellion is gearing up for a release in 2025, and it’s already creating quite the talk. Set against a backdrop of an alternate England, this game promises fascinating gameplay and a fascinating history lesson for players if all goes well with Microsoft.
There’s something endlessly fascinating about dystopian worlds shaped by alternate histories. Just think about how Atomic Heart plunges us into a chilling Soviet Union that never was or how Wolfenstein confronts us with a Nazi-ruled reality. And then there’s Fallout, which has long been the poster child for post-apocalyptic storytelling in America. Yet, Atomfall opts to look at the fallout of radioactive consequences rather than nuclear annihilation itself, definitely worth keeping an eye on!
Atomfall will launch directly on Game Pass when it releases!
If you’re an Xbox user ready to don your radiation suit and embark on a treacherous journey through what used to be the beautiful Lake District (now infested with mutants and cultists), you’re in luck! The beauty of having a Game Pass subscription means you’ll get access without any extra cost, a comforting thought when faced with such chaos. Plus, we can’t forget that Rebellion’s partnership with Microsoft has already proven fruitful; their other upcoming title, Sniper Elite Resistance, is also hitting the platform.

This new title looks will fill a gap left by Bethesda’s absence from post-apocalyptic gaming for some time. With their next endeavor still years away from launch, I can’t help but wonder if Atomfall could pave the way for a new franchise altogether. What do you think?
