The game borrows from recognisable building blocks, including BioShock, Half-Life, and Portal.

In essence, it's a 24-hour, plugged-in version of the Internet. Kollectiv 2.0 will give all people equal access to the hive-mind, enabling them to connect and share information with one another over great distances and control robots remotely through Thought devices that are wired directly into their brains. A few years later, just before Kollectiv 2.0 is made public, the game starts.

By the 1950s, the Soviet Union's working class had been entirely replaced by robots that were controlled by a hive-mind network known as Kollectiv 1.0. In Atomic Heart's alternate timeline, a scientist by the name of Dmitry Sechenov sparks a robotics renaissance in Russia in the 1930s. Atomic Heart, the latest single-player video game, has garnered attention for its intricate world and striking visual design. The game is set in an imagined past where technology has turned against its creators, leading to a world overrun by robots and other advanced creations. Developed by Mundfish, this alternate-history shooter features a retro-futuristic landscape that blends sci-fi and supernatural elements.
