In recent years, it's become increasingly common for new game releases to offer an Early Access period, allowing eager fans to play a few days before the official launch. *Atomfall* is no exception, providing up to three days of early access. While the standard edition of *Atomfall* is set to launch on Thursday, March 27th, those who pre-order the Digital Deluxe or the PC exclusive Quarantine Edition can start playing as early as Monday, March 24th.

Unfortunately, if you're an Xbox Game Pass subscriber looking to jump in early, there doesn’t seem to be a way to do so with *Atomfall*. In the past, Microsoft has allowed Game Pass members to access the standard edition of games on day one, with the option to upgrade to a Digital Deluxe Edition for early access. This was the case for titles like *Starfield*, *Indiana Jones and the Great Circle*, and *Avowed*. However, no such upgrade option appears to be available for *Atomfall*.

What Time Does Atomfall Come Out? Answered

As of now, no official release time for *Atomfall* has been widely announced. However, fans in the United States might expect it to go live on Monday morning. The Microsoft Store currently lists the release time for *Atomfall* as 10am Eastern Time on March 24th. It's worth noting that changing your region and language settings does not seem to alter this release time, suggesting that the popular "New Zealand trick" won't work for *Atomfall*. Keep in mind, these details are subject to change, and this article will be updated as soon as Rebellion provides more specific 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.
