Rebellion Developments has announced that Wicked Isle, a story expansion for its survival action title, Atomfall will launch on June 3. The expansion adds a whole new location to the game, with its own set of characters and enemies as well as additional leads, weapons, skills, items and multiple new endings for the main game. Check out our review of Atomfall here.
Drawing on the folk horror elements of the game for inspiration, the story expansion is set on Midsummer Island. To cross to the island players must talk to the boat-keeper who can be found on the jetty in Wyndham Village. He will give you information about the island as well as your first Lead.
“Midsummer is located close to the Windscale Atom Plant and as a result the levels of infection in both the people and environment are higher than on the mainland,” explained Ben Fisher, head of design at Rebellion, “You are going to meet new enemy factions including pirate bandits and infected druids. To help you survive there are new weapons to be found on the island including a devastating Blunderbuss shotgun, a new bow, cutlass, daggers and the Beekeeper’s Staff. You will also be able to acquire new skills which will aid you on your quest as well as an upgraded metal detector which will enable you find even more loot caches.”
The Leads you uncover in Wicked Isle will open a variety of story treads, some of which create new potential endings for the main Atomfall game. Wicked Isle is available with the game’s Deluxe Edition, or can be purchased separately with the Deluxe Upgrade on Steam (Rs 1,100), PlayStation Store (Rs 2,081) and Xbox Store (Rs 1,349).
