atomic heart it has been confirmed to have a graphics mode running at a dynamic 4K 60 FPS, in an interview with Robert Bagratuni, Founder and Game Director at developer Mundfish. He says his team has been working hard to optimize the game for consoles, and given how ambitious the project has been based solely on gameplay trailers so far, that effort apparently hasn’t been wasted.
Atomic Heart will also support PS5 DualSense controller functionality
Speaking in a lengthy interview with Wcfftech, Bagratuni also reveals that there will be specific areas in Atomic Heart that will run in native 4K. He says:
We’ve done a lot of optimization work for consoles, bringing graphics mode with dynamic 4K 60FPS and even native 4K with solid 60FPS in parts of the game.
In the future, Mundfish hopes to provide more updates and fixes to further improve the overall game performance on consoles.
Bagratuni also confirms that Atomic Heart will support haptic feedback and adaptive triggers for the DualSense controller, although this support is not transferring to the PC version of the game at this time.
In addition, he explains that the Field of View option will not be included in the configuration for consoles or PC, since the game “already has a wide FoV, superior to many other games”.
Atomic Heart seems set for its February 21 release date, announcing that it has gone gold a month early. As reported in 2021, the game is set in an alternate history in the Soviet Union and will feature two endings.
