Get ready, Atomfall fans! A new threat is emerging from the depths of Midsummer Island with the upcoming Wicked Isle expansion. The first story DLC for Atomfall; a deep dive into the twisted aftermath of the Windscale Disaster, promising new enemies, powerful weapons, and even some otherworldly abilities to contend with the horrors that await.

Midsummer Island isn’t exactly a vacation spot. Prepare to face a chilling array of hostile native inhabitants. We’re talking about everything from mutated fish monsters that lurk in the waters to a dangerous new sect of Druids. And if that wasn’t enough, you’ll encounter other fiendish creatures that have been grotesquely twisted by the Windscale Disaster’s radiation. It sounds like you’ll need every ounce of courage – and firepower – to survive.

Arm Yourself: New Arsenal and Otherworldly Abilities

Thankfully, you won’t be going into this fight empty-handed. Wicked Isle arms you with a new suite of weapons to help you fend off these abominations. Get ready to blast enemies into oblivion with the Blunderbuss shotgun. For a more precise – and perhaps more satisfying – approach, the crystalline Corrupted Daggers will let you cleanse the world of infected foes.
