Reprising its Asura engine tech, Rebellion aims to deliver something a little different in Atomfall - an open world survival adventure set around the UK's Lake District area. The concept is appealing, though on PS5 and Series X the tech has issues with reflections, low quality textures, and generally lacking image quality. Thankfully the PC release offers some options to address each point.
