The Atomic Heart new live-action trailer has arrived ahead of its February 21 release and features Jensen Ackles (Supernatural, The Boys) defending a young wizard. The trailer begins with a child attempting to use magic to destroy a robot manakin. After her attempts at spellcasting fail to produce anything she gives up and then Jensen appears, she asks “How are we going to survive the robot apocalypse?” to which Jensen is all too happy to demonstrate the proper way to deal with technological adversaries. The team even managed to squeeze one final joke as Jensen finishes his rampage by obliterating a pesky large balloon in the Atomic Heart new live-action trailer
“The release of Atomic Heart, the hotly anticipated action RPG set in the mad utopia of a fictional 1955 USSR, is finally within sight! We would like to celebrate the final stage of the countdown with a new video starring The Boys and Supernatural star Jensen Ackles.

Atomic Heart takes place in an alternate history where the USSR had created a robotic force to help humanity achieve its dreams but something went horribly wrong. Famed composer and sound designer Mick Gordon (Doom, Wolfenstein: The New Colossus/The New Order/The Old Blood, Killer Instinct, Destroy All Humans 2) has provided an original score for the adventure role-playing action game. Game Director Robert Bagratuni recently also shared updated PC requirements and that the game will include an option for shader compilation.

One of the more entertaining game trailers I've seen - this is also on one of the game passes I have, so I guess I'll check it out on Tuesday.
I don't have confidence in this game. It looks shallow, may be fun for 5 minutes. And then devolves into a repetitive endless grind.
Tell that to people that still enjoy Diablo three. Grind is now a feature.
Diablo ii beat d3 on grind by like 10 years :D
Omg, somebody calling Diablo grind instead of God's gift to human kind?! What is going on here....
I never played any diablo, but if the gameplay loop is varied and entertaining enough "the grind" can be fun.
Diablo ii is one of my favorite games, and I’m super glad they did a remaster. That said, I get tired of it after about a year
Same here. Will be checking it out later this week.
That basically is just about any PC game out there anymore.
I'll be curious to hear what you folks have to say about it after trying it. I'm quasi-interested in the game but I'll wait until I hear more about it before even thinking of buying. I think it looks o.k.
The game seems interesting, but there have been accusations of it sucking up data and sending it to the FSB, which is problematic.
You also have to wonder how they are getting around financial sanctions against Russia.
Not gonna lie. I had some questions about this as well.
By being owned by tencent and having a western publisher.
I don't believe the FSB stuff. It is likely just detractors being detractors. Since wireshark exists it is not really possible to do large data collection without being noticed.
I'd imagine with most connections being encrypted these days, and even offline single player games constantly dialing home to the publisher/developer it would be pretty difficult to tell the difference between a nefarious connection and a benign one.
You can still see how much data is being sent and its destination. I'm sure this is just fearmongering, besides what possible use they'd have for random gamer data at the FSB?
