Atomfall, the next game that will vaguely attempt to satisfy our British Fallout cravings, has just received one of the saddest island release date reveal trailers of all time.

Atomfall, the upcoming game from Sniper Elite developer Rebellion, which many people are looking to for another solution to Britain’s post-apocalypse with a radioactive tinge that isn’t an official version of Fallout on our sad little island, now has a proper release date . It will arrive on March 25, 2025, as a new trailer with English countryside vibes conveys.

While we technically got British Fallout earlier this year thanks to the massive Fallout: London mod, which we really liked when it didn’t suffer from too many bugs, ever since Atomfall was announced, it’s been getting those comparisons. It’s up to you to decide if you justify them, and now you have more material to start with.

Closing with the aforementioned release date of March 25 next year, Atomfall’s latest trailer is set in an iconic British location: the woods. Casterfell Woods, in fact, clarifies Rebellion’s associate lead designer, Ben Fisher, in an Xbox Wire post published alongside the trailer. Apparently, it is “a wild and inhospitable place, underpinned by an immediately unsettling vibe.”

Yes, add a generous supply of discarded condoms and beer cans strewn alongside the wicker men Casterfell has, and that’s a pretty accurate description of many of the wooded areas around where I live. The fact that the trailer basically shows a poor guy subjected to a popular tune and then being mugged next to a dilapidated phone booth by a stranger who walks away whistling also seems very realistic in England.

Anyway, the phone booth is ringing, and Fisher says that’s important, writing: “The voice at the end of the phone line is one of Atomfall’s many mysteries that players will have to address if they want to get to the bottom of what what happened at the Windscale nuclear plant all those years ago.”

In terms of influences, the developer adds that Atomfall draws on classic sci-fi like Doctor Who, The Quatermass Experiment, and The Day of the Triffids for the spooky forest parts of its survival action, i.e. action.

You’ll be able to try it out on PC, Xbox Series X/S, Xbox One, PS5, and PS4 when it launches, as well as on Xbox game Pass on day one. Let us know how dirty your local forest is below and if you plan to play Atomfall.
