In the gaming world, Early Access periods have become a popular trend, and *Atomfall* is no exception. You can jump into the game up to three days early by pre-ordering the Digital Deluxe or the PC exclusive Quarantine Edition. While the standard edition of *Atomfall* will hit the shelves on Thursday, March 27th, those who opt for the special editions will get to start playing on Monday, March 24th.
Unfortunately, Xbox Game Pass subscribers won’t have access to the early play period for *Atomfall*. In previous instances, Microsoft allowed Game Pass users to upgrade to a Digital Deluxe Edition for early access, as seen with titles like *Starfield*, *Indiana Jones and the Great Circle*, and *Avowed*. However, this option isn't available for *Atomfall*.
What Time Does Atomfall Come Out? Answered
While an official release time for *Atomfall* hasn't been widely announced, you might expect it to be available starting Monday morning in the US. The Microsoft Store currently indicates a release time of 10am Eastern Time on March 24th for early access. Adjusting your region and language settings doesn't seem to affect this timing, suggesting that the 'New Zealand trick' won't work here. Keep in mind, these details could change, and this article will be updated once Rebellion provides more definitive information on the game's release schedule.
*Atomfall* will be available on PC, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, and Xbox Game Pass starting March 27th.
