Rebellion's new survival-action game, Atomfall, has officially been released. Inspired by real-life events, it's set five years after the Windscale nuclear disaster in Northern England.

While exploring the fictional quarantine zone, players must scavenge, craft, barter, fight, and talk their way through a troubled British countryside filled with bizarre characters, mysticism, cults, and rogue government agencies.

The best bit about it, though? It's free to play on Xbox Game Pass!

Gamers with an active subscription to Game Pass Ultimate on PC and Console can access Atomfall at no additional cost following its launch on Thursday, 27 March.

Atomfall is also available on PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, and Steam, though depending on what edition you want to purchase, you could be paying anywhere between $49.99-$79.99, so Game Pass is definitely the way to go if you are on Xbox.

From our own experience, Atomfall can be likened to other games such as Far Cry, Fallout, and S.T.A.L.K.E.R., so if you're a fan of any of those titles or the genre in general, then we're sure you'll enjoy what Rebellion has dished up.
