Ability wise you have the new Techno-Stasis ability, which is ridiculously powerful, slowing all enemies around you so that they’re easy pickings. I ended up with two melee weapons, a new assault rifle, shotgun, and pistol. This is a far more limited arsenal and ability system than you had in the main game. I persevered and made it through fixing my glove and getting some guns.
It is a mix of maddeningly unfair and clunky combat against large numbers of robots that had me contemplating not reviewing this DLC at all. Once the combat begins you have a shovel, and that is it for 45 minutes. Your glove, for reasons thoroughly explained in the original, isn’t working early on and you’ll spend a while walking around and getting some backstory. If you don’t know what that means then go play the base game, it’s on Game Pass and I loved it. Nora the vending machine who is madly in love with you has taken over the facility and is locked in a struggle with Granny. In this one it makes one of them canon and picks up almost immediately after that choice is made. I’ll keep this spoiler-lite, as if you’re playing this then you should have beaten the campaign and hopefully seen its multiple endings. Unlike the original campaign it is a series of frustrating moments that coalesces into something thoroughly disappointing in the end. You return as Major P-3 and have to fight robot after robot for a few hours or so. Titled “Annihilation Instinct”, it takes place after canonizing one of the endings of the main game.
Atomic Heart, which released Day One into Game Pass earlier this year, has just released its first major DLC.
