I've reached out to Focus Home for clarification on whether we should now expect Atomic Heart in 2023 or if this is all just some wonky inter-company bookkeeping confusion, and will update if I receive a reply. Atomic Heart is set in an alternate history version of the Soviet Union, during the 1950's. The game was released for the PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Windows, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S on February 21, 2023. Mundfish is a Russian studio, not Ukrainian, but the team had reportedly suspended work on the game immediately after the invasion began, at least in part because of Western sanctions against Russia had impacted moral at the the studio and made it "difficult for developers to live and work." Mundfish later denied that development of Atomic Heart had ever paused, but did not comment on whether the game was likely to be delayed. Atomic Heart is a 2023 single-player first-person shooter developed by Mundfish and published by Focus Entertainment and 4Divinity. In June, Xbox Game Pass Poland ( Google translated, via Bloody Disgusting) reported that the game was likely to be delayed into 2023 because of the Russian invasion of Ukraine. This actually isn't the first time we've heard about a possible delay of Atomic Heart into 2023. Nowhere in the announcement is the word "delay" used, to be clear, but you don't make a change if there's nothing to change, right? The change, then, rather strongly suggests that Atomic Heart won't turn up until early 2023-or at least that a move into next year is a strong possibility. Those of us who live in northern climes will immediately recognize that a big chunk of "this winter" is in fact Q4 2022.
