In today's gaming world, it's common for new titles to offer an Early Access period, and *Atomfall* is no exception. You can get your hands on the game up to three days before its official launch. While the standard edition of *Atomfall* hits the shelves on Thursday, March 27th, those who pre-order the Digital Deluxe or the PC-exclusive Quarantine Edition will be able to start playing as early as Monday, March 24th.

Unfortunately, Xbox Game Pass subscribers won't be able to join the early access fun. Although *Atomfall* will be available on Xbox Game Pass from day one, there's no option for early access through the subscription service. In the past, Microsoft allowed Game Pass members to upgrade to a Digital Deluxe Edition to play certain titles early, such as *Starfield*, *Indiana Jones and the Great Circle*, and *Avowed*. However, *Atomfall* doesn't seem to offer this perk.

What Time Does Atomfall Come Out? Answered

While Rebellion hasn't officially announced a specific release time for *Atomfall*, it's speculated that the game will be available Monday morning in the US. The Microsoft Store currently lists the release time as 10am Eastern Time on March 24th. It doesn't look like changing your region and language settings will allow you to use the New Zealand trick to play even earlier. Keep in mind, though, that this information could change, and we'll update this article once Rebellion provides more details about the game's launch timing.

*Atomfall* will launch on PC, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, and Xbox Game Pass on March 27th.
