FPS fans have been keen to see just what Mundfish has been cooking up with their Dystopian Soviet shooter Atomic Heart for a while now. And while the developers have teased a release date for later this year, a rumour has surfaced that Atomic Heart has been delayed to 2023.
First reported by Xbox Game Pass Poland, a member of the website had purportedly been in contact with a Mundfish team member, who stated that development on Atomic Heart had been halted for a month due to the conflict in Ukraine, but had now resumed. But as a result of the stoppage, the game would “most likely be postponed to first quarter of 2023.”
However, Mundfish later refuted the rumour, stating that development on Atomic Heart had not stopped, nor did the Russian developer have any offices in Poland. If that’s the case, then Atomic Heart will launch Q4 2022 as stated. Hopefully we get another glimpse of the gameplay before then.
Atomic Heart is current in development for PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series and PC via Steam.
