Mundfish‘s May-announced game already has its pre-orders on PC. Not on consoles, though, but due to the release window, it makes sense.

Atomic Heart, which will be set in an alternate universe Soviet Union, will be an RPG with FPS elements, and it can now be pre-ordered on PC on the developers’ website. The Digital Download Edition is now half off, for 30 dollars. It will contain a digital soundtrack, a digital art book, a behind the scenes video, and as pre-order bonuses, access to a beta version in the last quarter of 2019, as well as seven-day early access to the game. (Even smaller developers started to follow this trend it seems…)

The Deluxe Founder’s Edition, which is 45 dollars (25% off), will have everything mentioned before, plus a Founder’s badge in your in-game profile, a unique Founder’s mask in-game, and as an extra pre-order bonus, access to the backers’ closed forum area. The 90-dollar Atomic Founder Edition adds even more: it puts your name in the game, it also gives you a personal ID to be used in Facility 3826 to access a unique location, and as an additional pre-order bonus, your photo and name would be placed on the wall at the Safe Zone.

(In other words: the game is Communist, and the devs are capitalist!)

Wait, Facility 3826? Safe Zone? Well, in Atomic Heart, the communist technological revolution has happened in the Soviet Union, meaning the Soviets (Russians?) live in a somewhat futuristic environment. Something happened in Facility 3826, and we’re sent out to check out the place as a KGB officer. The video below features the „clown trap,” one of the weird enemies.

Atomic Heart will launch in Q4 2019 on PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC. We’re about a year away from launch. The developers will also reveal the release date and the „priorities” (possibly the platform they will make the game available on first) in Q2 2019.
