The latest update for Atomic Heart has dropped, with next-gen players getting a spiffy new feature – a 120fps mode, available for those who have a compatible screen. Players also get the ability to change the game’s text-size, which is always appreciated. Beyond that, you can expect a number of bug fixes, gameplay tweaks, and improved localization.
Here’s a rundown of the headline changes included in Atomic Heart ver. 1.4.0.0…
- HUD, subtitle size settings
- 120Hz mode (PS5, Xbox Series X|S) – Mode will work with compatible devices that are supported by consoles (TV or monitor and HDMI 2.1 cable) only, the presence of 120Hz does not guarantee the operation of the mode.
- Fixed an issue with unlocking achievements – There may be some delay in unlocking achievements entirely on save games before or during the Day 1 patch, there may still be some issues.
- Fixed an issue with auto-detection of voice-over language.

Haven’t been keeping up with Atomic Heart? Wccftech’s Alessio Palumbo enjoyed its gameplay, but had criticism for the game’s narrative in his full review…
“Atomic Heart is a solid debut for a brand-new developer. Mundfish succeeded in following the example of BioShock to deliver an engaging first-person shooter that is fun to play (minus a few quirks), runs extremely well, and looks great. That said, it’s fair to say the narrative as a whole left me wanting. There are some potentially interesting story bits here and there, but their potential is thoroughly squandered when everything comes together in the finale, which is abrupt, rushed, and confusing.”
Atomic Heart can be played on PC, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, PS4, and PS5. Update 1.4 is out now.
