When yours truly shared the game's amazing combat trailer a few weeks ago, I noted that the lack of a release window in it made me extremely sure Mundfish was quietly delaying Atomic Heart to 2023. That led many of you to point out the developer's Twitter account claimed it was still set to launch this year, but now we have a great example of why you should trust your gut.
Because Mundfish has some good news and bad news for us in a statement today. The good news is that they've finally found a publisher for the game in the form of Focus Entertainment. "Unfortunately", the bad news is that the developers need more time to do some final polish, so they've decided to delay Atomic Heart to the first quarter of 2023 aka winter. An exact date will be announced "shortly".
