Those that have been following the development of Atlas Fallen are no doubt thrilled as the August 10 release date draws ever closer. Perhaps even more exciting, the exact release time for the PC and console versions has now been revealed, letting fans know the precise time they'll get to dive into the breackneck action gameplay of the Deck13's latest project. Curiously, the release time is different for the PC and console versions, so players should check out when the game will be available, depending on their chosen gaming platform and where they live.
Deck13 is most well known for its other titles, Lords of the Fallen and The Surge franchise, both of which were soulslikes with the brutal difficulty that genre is known for. By contrast, Atlas Fallen looks to change the formula up, instead offering players a more fluid combat system full of flashy combos and fast-paced fights.
Atlas Fallen - PC Release Date and Time
The PC version of Atlas Fallen will release on either August 9 or 10 depending on where the player lives. More specifically, players will gain access to the game at 00:01 CEST on August 10. The map above shows what that translates into for various cities and time zones throughout the world. For example, gamers in Paris will get the game at 12:01 AM on August 10, but gamers in New York City will have access to Atlas Fallen at around 6:00 PM on August 9.
Atlas Fallen - Console Release Date and Time
Whereas the PC version is releasing simultaneously throughout the world, console versions are instead releasing in a staggered manner. Atlas Fallen on next gen consoles Xbox Series X or PS5 will be available at 12:01 AM local time on August 10 across the entire world. This means that western markets like Los Angeles, USA will actually be getting the game later than those on PC would. Meanwhile, eastern markets such as Sydney, Australia will be getting it a full eight hours earlier than those on PC. Keep this information in mind when waiting for the release of the game on consoles.
While it helps to know the release times for each version of the game, players shouldn't choose which platform to play on solely based on this information. Atlas Fallen is sure to be an exciting adventure regardless of which platform players choose, so it's best to pick whichever gaming medium the player enjoys more.
Atlas Fallen releases on August 9th and 10th for PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X.
