The Mundfish studio shared fresh insights about Atomic Heart in a concise interview with a gaming portal. The interview highlighted several points that help map out what players can expect from the upcoming shooter, and what has shaped its development so far.
Details:
- The studio now employs about 130 developers from diverse regions including Poland, Ukraine, Austria, Kazakhstan, Georgia, Israel, Armenia, the United Arab Emirates, Serbia, and Cyprus.
- Many team members have previously contributed to large scale AAA projects, bringing extensive experience to the game’s design and production.
- The project’s development stretched over a longer period because of the studio’s youth, ambitious goals, and a strong drive to push new technologies and deliver something distinctive in the genre.
- During the process, the creators opted to drop certain ideas, including plans for a multiplayer component, in favor of a focused single-player experience.
- The final vision centers on a completely single-player campaign with no multiplayer additions planned at this stage.
- Post-launch content will broaden the open world, introducing new facilities and laboratories, additional quests, puzzles, enemies, and characters to enrich the player’s journey.
