Atomic Heart is a game that's been on our radar for years at this point, but it appears to be no closer to release. To recap, the game is in development at Russian studio Mundfish, and it depicts an alternate reality future that looks heavily inspired by BioShock. With a surreal and brilliant reveal trailer, we've been eagerly anticipating this oddball adventure.
Now, the team has returned with a lengthy new look at gameplay. The most notable news is that the game is now cross-gen; it's coming to both PlayStation 5 and PS4. There's still no release date attached to the project, but we imagine it'll be 2021 at the earliest at this point.
As for the gameplay itself, it still looks like there's a focus on melee combat versus weird creatures and machines. You also appear to have some technical enhancements of your own, able to trigger electronics and see enemies through walls. It's all so wonderfully weird, and kinda creepy.
What do you think? Will you be giving Atomic Heart a look on PS5? Let us know in the comments section below.

☑ Another game to look out for. Mostly like 2022
I am really happy to see and update on this even if it isn't as close to launching as I had hoped, I asked about it at our local Game store but they hadn't even heard of it! I think it looks really good and am happy to wait until the PS5 but I also think it is adds pressure to itself with constant delays, just hope it delivers whenever that may be!
Why didn't he use a gun during the entire gameplay?
This game looks really cool, a bit Prey like but cool. I’ll have to pick it up.
@Ah-Void Why use a gun when you have twin giant circular saws on a metal pole??
This is on my radar and will continue to be. I hope it actually gets released.......
Wow - thanks - I’d almost forgotten about this one! Pleased it is still in production and looking good. Now I just need to find out about Biomutant and Beyond Good and Evil 2!
I don’t care when they are planning to release this, I just love the Sci Fi look from the gameplay
Ah, was racking my mind only last week trying to remember what this game was called.
Can't wait to play soviet bioshock
This game looks killer, like a weird lovechild of Prey, Bioshock, and Metro. Glad to hear it’s still coming along, and awesome to see more gameplay!
I hope they keep the Russian in it.
I really like the look and setting of this, hope the melee combat feels satisfying as it looked a bit too Skyrim-esque, like they were just swinging through enemies and not really connecting. Hope I'm wrong though
Looks good. Its like if Doom had a baby with Prey and this is the result.
