Mundfish Games has officially announced the development of Atomic Heart II, the highly anticipated sequel to their breakout first-person shooter, following the original game's remarkable success of over 10 million players worldwide. The announcement, made on June 6, 2025, has sparked excitement among fans of the retrofuturistic dystopian title.
Set in an alternate history version of the Soviet Union, the first Atomic Heart captivated gamers with its unique blend of action, role-playing elements, and a visually stunning world. Released in February 2023, the game received mixed reviews but garnered a massive following due to its innovative gameplay and narrative depth.
According to Mundfish, Atomic Heart II will expand on the original’s foundation, promising new features and a deeper dive into the eerie, robot-infested universe. While specific details about the storyline and release date remain under wraps, the studio hinted at enhanced RPG mechanics and an even more immersive experience.
The announcement comes alongside news of other projects in the Atomic Universe, including standalone titles like The Cube, a multiplayer RPG shooter, as revealed at Summer Game Fest. This ambitious expansion signals Mundfish’s intent to build a broader franchise around their flagship title.
Fans and critics alike are eager to see how Mundfish will address feedback from the first game, including controversies surrounding its reported links to Russia. The studio’s CEO, Robert Bagratuni, expressed a commitment to creating impactful art, drawing inspiration from iconic titles like Crysis.
As anticipation builds for Atomic Heart II, Mundfish continues to engage its global community with promises of exclusive content and updates. Gamers can expect the sequel to launch on PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X/S, continuing the legacy of a game that redefined sci-fi dystopian shooters.
