A New Open-World Era of ATOM Begins! 1,225 km² of the Caspian Wastes!
Mon, May 4, 2026



Dear players,

ATOM RPG 2 has reached 100% funding on Kickstarter!

Thank you so much for your support. This is only the beginning. We are now working toward the next goals that can make the game even bigger and better.



In ATOM RPG 2, we are preparing a seamless 35x35 km open world without a separate global map or constant loading screens. The Caspian Wastes will be larger, more alive, and more dangerous than ever, with physics, vehicles, exploration, survival elements, and many new systems.

If you want to help us push ATOM RPG 2 even further, please support the campaign and share it with your friends.

Welcome to a new era of ATOM.

Yours,
Atom Team

ATOM RPG 2: Salvation! The Closed Alpha Test Has Begun + Roadmap
Sun, August 2, 2026



Hello, friends!

The closed alpha test of ATOM RPG 2 codenamed Salvation has started.

The first test area is 1 km × 1 km with more areas of this size added with every new update.

Our main goal during this test is co-op-PvE and playing through the game together.



The area we are sharing this time, known internally as "Bunker Hill" has a bunch of interesting spots for this task. Enjoyers of gunplay will find distinct places from an abandoned military training site, to a hunting stand beset by maddened ghouls.



Explorers will find plenty of locations, both military and civilian, as well as a few modes of transportation, including a set of skis! Those who supported ATOM 2 for RPG content will find quests and dialogues with several NPCs. There's even some spooky stuff for you to get goosebumps over...



Still, the game focuses around single-player as its base, so your solo game will always be available, and you can open it for other players to join at any time.

Right now, your help with testing, bug reports, and feedback is very, very welcome.

Our Kickstarter Alpha Backers are the first to get access. Thank you for your support and for helping us test the game at this early stage!




Roadmap:

July 30 - Codename: Salvation
Closed Alpha for Kickstarter Alpha Backers.

Gamescom 2026
26.-30.08.2026 Everyone can visit our booth (10.2 F021g Games from Ukraine) and play ATOM RPG 2. We will be waiting for you!

September - Codename: Exodus
The Closed Beta begins. Alpha Backers will keep access, and Kickstarter Beta Backers will join them.

December - Codename: Reclamation
ATOM RPG 2 enters Early Access. Everyone will be able to buy and play the game.

This is only the beginning. Thank you for taking this path with us!

Yours,
Atom Team
