Mundfish has announced that Atomic Heart’s first story DLC, Annihilation Instinct, is now available.

The DLC debuts a series of additional content from the Atomic Pass, introducing exciting new features to complement the new narrative content: a new area, new weapons, new enemies, and a new glove ability.

Here’s an overview of the Annihilation Instinct DLC:

Embark on a new, mind-bending journey with the Annihilation Instinct DLC and discover the truth about NORA’s story as Major P-3 is pulled back into Facility 3826.

Meet an enigmatic Professor Lebedev to figure out how to suppress the AI’s insanity and curb its Annihilation Instinct.

Continue the story and go on exploring the twisted, dystopian world further as you visit the Mendeleev Complex and its surrounding swamps, a completely new area. Take on unhinged machines, shape-shifting new enemies and a brand-new boss.

Unlock two new weapons: the Secateur – a ranged weapon with 2 firing modes – and the Klusha – a melee weapon that can slash and pierce!

Finally, get the edge and survive by enhancing your polymeric glove with the new Technostasis ability, allowing you to manipulate time itself.

In celebration of the launch of the DLC, the game is now discounted on Steam! Enjoy the game with up to 40% off and check out the Gold and Premium edition to also obtain the Annihilation Instinct DLC.
