Rebellion Announces Atomfall, Launches In 2025

From U.K.-based Rebellion, the team continues offering new projects ever so often. In 2022, it was Sniper Elite 5. “The Sniper Elite series is one of my personal favorites, and Sniper Elite 5 completely fills a void left behind with the lack of any relevant Metal Gear or Splinter Cell for the current generation. […] Stellar level design and refined gameplay mechanics firmly establish Sniper Elite 5 among the stealth action classics such as Hitman and Splinter Cell,” our review for the game reads.

Not only that, but the team is still whittling away at more virtual reality projects. After its launch for Sniper Elite VR, the same treatment is also coming to Zombie Army as well. A proper virtual reality title is currently in development with plans to release on Meta Quest, Steam, and PlayStation VR 2. Now this weekend, Rebellion reveals there is more under the hood at its studio as well.

At the Xbox Games Showcase, Rebellion announced post-apocalyptic, open-world experience Atomfall. You can watch the reveal trailer in the video below:

“Set in the rolling British countryside with idyllic pubs, quaint villages, and red phone boxes, it soon becomes clear that things are far from normal. Created by Rebellion, the makers of the much-loved Sniper Elite and Zombie Army franchises, Atomfall is inspired by a real-world nuclear disaster that occurred in northern England in 1957. The game follows a fictional storyline where you find yourself in the quarantine zone five years after the event.

“Explore the countryside, villages, and settlements and meet odd people, wicked cults, rogue government agencies and others along the way. Explore this open world adventure and seek out the truth at your own pace. A single player, survival-action game, Atomfall blends post-war Britain with Cold War paranoia, folk horror, and elements of classic British sci-fi to create an immersive and thrilling gameplay experience.”

How excited are you for Atomfall?

Atomfall will release in 2025 for Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, and PC.
