Exciting news for fans of immersive sci-fi worlds and atompunk aesthetics—*Atomic Heart 2* is officially in development at Mundfish, as announced during this year’s Summer Game Fest. Alongside the sequel, the studio also unveiled *The CUBE*, a brand-new multiplayer RPG shooter set within the same dark and mysterious universe.
In a newly released trailer, details about *Atomic Heart 2* were revealed, showing that the game is currently in active development for both PC and console platforms. Staying true to the roots of its predecessor, the sequel will continue as an action-adventure first-person shooter infused with deep RPG mechanics. The setting remains a retrofuturistic alternate history where humanity once thrived alongside intelligent robots—until those machines turned against their creators, plunging civilization into chaos. As the world teeters on the edge of total collapse, players return to take on the role of the last hope for mankind.
Introducing The CUBE
Set years after the events of *Atomic Heart*, *The CUBE* introduces players to a new and bizarre phenomenon—a colossal floating cube that appears in the sky, triggering a wave of unexplained and dangerous anomalies. Driven by mystery and urgency, players must enter the Cube to uncover its secrets and confront the unknown force threatening humanity's survival. As a multiplayer RPG shooter, it promises cooperative gameplay and intense combat across expansive environments, all while expanding the lore of the Atomic Heart universe.
A Legacy of Success
The original *Atomic Heart* launched in 2023 to widespread acclaim, earning an impressive 8/10 from IGN. Reviewers praised it as a bold, imaginative, and technically strong entry in the genre, drawing comparisons to classics like *BioShock* while carving out its own identity in the atompunk landscape.
Just recently, Mundfish confirmed that *Atomic Heart* has crossed the 10 million player milestone—an impressive feat for a title still gaining momentum. Since launch, the game has seen multiple DLC expansions, each adding depth and new content to the experience. One final DLC is still in development, promising even more adventures in the world of *Atomic Heart* before the journey truly continues with the sequel and *The CUBE*.
