Mundfish has announced that the upcoming DLC for Atomic Heart, entitled Annihilation Instinct, is launching on August 2, 2023.

The new DLC will also come with the availability of the New Game+ mode, along with a new area,
new enemies, new weapons, and a new ability.

Here’s an overview of the Annihilation Instinct DLC:

Continue the story in the Annihilation Instinct DLC and learn what happened in the game’s dystopian world after the climax of the Atomic Heart. Prepare to embark on a journey through the new mind-bending Mendeleev Complex and its surrounding swamps and discover the truth about NORA as Major P-3 is pulled back into Facility 3826. Survive vicious, shape-shifting new enemies and take them down using two new cunning weapons – ranged one the Secateur and melee one the Klusha – as well as and your glove’s new time-shift Techno-Stasis ability, allowing you to manipulate time itself.

Meet a new enigmatic character, as well as returning ones in surprising circumstances and dive deep into the AI’s insanity to curb its Annihilation Instinct.

The game is also on sale at the moment, and players can take advantage of the 40% discount from Steam.

Atomic Heart is now available for PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series, and PC.
