West Coast Sixth Form students have had the incredible opportunity to get their hands on Atomfall, the upcoming survival-horror game from Rebellion, ahead of its official release. Not only were they given a preview copy to review, but they also received an exclusive merch pack filled with items inspired by the game’s eerie post-apocalyptic world.
Set in an alternate-history Britain, Atomfall takes players through a chilling reimagining of the countryside, with a strong connection to real-world locations, including Cumbria and the Lake District. The game blends survival mechanics, gripping storytelling, and atmospheric exploration, making it one of the most highly anticipated titles of the year.
