Blood stains the streets, and robots that were once considered peaceful are now killing everyone in their path. A terrible atrocity has taken place in this wide-open facility that serves as the birthplace of the Soviet’s robotics empire. You play as Major P-3, a hardscrabble sort of guy who descends from the city in the clouds to Facility 3826 on a top-secret mission. The country has experienced a tremendous amount of growth and prosperity thanks to its discovery of Polymer, a substance that paved the way for the advanced robotics that have allowed the nation to flourish.
But, I will say, maybe take a peek at that Eurogamer piece before dropping $60 on something that, so far, feels like it’s better suited for a rental than a purchase.Ītomic Heart takes place in an alternate version of the Soviet Union in 1955. I’m not going to lecture anyone on whether they should buy this game or not, as there are plenty of people online who are ready to do that. What we do know for sure is composer Mick Gordon, best known for his work on games like Killer Instinct and Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus, has donated his fee from the game to Red Cross Australia’s Ukraine Crisis Appeal. Without more concrete answers from the developer on its ties with Russia, it’s all still kind of up in the air. However, the original development team was based in Russia, and Russian-state media has referred to the studio as Russian in reports on the game. The developer bills itself as a multinational developer with team members in 10 different countries, including Poland, Ukraine, and the United Arab Emirates.
According to a Eurogamer article, which goes into far more detail on the matter than I will here, Mundfish’s investor is the Russian firm GEM Capital, which is run by Anatoliy Paliy, who used to work for the state-owned Gazprom. Atomic Heart is the debut title from developer Mundfish, who, in recent weeks, has come under pressure to be more transparent over its ties to Russia. Before I get into this Review in Progress, I should probably discuss the elephant in the room.
