Atomfall pre-load details for all platforms

Atomfall pre-load went live on March 17, 2025, for all those who have pre-ordered the game. Here are the pre-load and release dates for the game:

• Pre-load Start Date: March 17, 2025
• Early Access for Deluxe Edition: March 24 at 2 PM GMT
• Official Release Date: March 27 at midnight local time

If you’re picking up the Standard Edition, you’ll be able to access the game on March 27. So, by pre-loading Atomfall, you can jump into the action the moment it goes live.

Although most modern games require quite a bit of free space, Atomfall is relatively lightweight compared to other open-world titles. Here’s how much free space you’ll need:

PlayStation

• PS5: 27.2 GB
• PS4: 48.2 GB

Xbox

• Xbox Series X|S: 30.8 GB
• Xbox One: TBA (Likely 48-50 GB, similar to PS4)

PC

• Steam & Epic Games Store: Around 60 GB
• Microsoft Store (Game Pass version): 65.9 GB

Considering how detailed and immersive the world of Atomfall looks, these sizes are fairly manageable, especially on newer consoles and PCs.

If you don’t want to wait until March 27, you can pick up the Deluxe Edition to get early access on March 24 at 2 PM GMT — a full three days ahead of the official launch.

Along with early access, the Deluxe Edition comes with:

• Basic & Enhanced Supply Bundles – Extra gear to help you out at the start.
• The Wicked Isle Story Expansion – An upcoming DLC that expands the world of Atomfall.

Do note that if you’re subscribed to Xbox Game Pass, the Standard Edition will be available on day one, so you won’t need to buy the game separately.

Pre-loading Atomfall is the best way to ensure you hit the ground running at launch without getting stuck in download queues. The game’s file sizes are reasonable, so you won’t have to worry about it eating up a lot of drive space.

With early access perks for Deluxe Edition owners and day-one availability on Game Pass, Atomfall is shaping up to be an exciting launch for survival-horror fans.
