    If you're craving more Atomic Heart content with all its underwhelming dialogue and iffy gameplay, Annihilation Instinct may be worth checking out, but even hardcore fans may be left wanting.

    The art direction and music are still well done, and the environments look gorgeous. The new boss fight is fun, and the weapons are interesting while having upgrades to hunt down. The Mendeleev Complex offers some interesting sequences. Some of the base game's plot strands are resolved.

    Bad-
    The story set-up is odd, and the awful dialogue between P-3 and NORA doesn't help. Payoff feels contrived, especially considering how short the DLC is. Not enough new abilities or meaningful side quests. Level design feels non-intuitive, making exploration a chore. Progression blockers and bugs, like audio cut-outs, occurred at times. General combat is a massive cluster where all strategy goes out the window, and the immense difficulty spike at the beginning is annoying.

    Thoughts-
    Annihilation Instinct is more Atomic Heart for those who want it, but even that would encompass only the most die-hard fans, and the prospects aren’t amazing. Maybe P-3 will finally get some answers. Maybe Granny Zina will stop being angry at him. Maybe we get some spiffy-looking environments and nice new tunes. Either way, if this is the bar for DLC, I’m not exactly excited about what’s to come.    … Expand
