ATOM RPG 2 is in closed alpha for Kickstarter Alpha Backers, with a Steam Early Access release set for December 2026 and full release in 2027.
AtomTeam started the closed alpha test for ATOM RPG 2 on 9 August 2026, available to Kickstarter Alpha Backers. The test carries the codename Codename: Salvation and runs in a 1km x 1km area, with more zones planned. The focus is co-op PvE, though solo play remains central. The alpha kicks off a public roadmap that runs through Gamescom 2026, a closed beta in September, and the December Early Access release.
Those alpha details land alongside the studio's plans for the original ATOM RPG. To mark its 10th anniversary in October, AtomTeam is releasing a large-scale update. Update 1.2.1 adds weapons from ATOM RPG Trudograd, weapon customization, combat and companion AI improvements, plus interface and visual updates. Update 1.2.5, planned for later, adds co-op play. That co-op feature is also headed to ATOM RPG 2.
The story DLC Plague Island is scheduled for release on Steam in October. So the studio is putting work back into the first game while the sequel is still in development, and the co-op feature planned for the update will also appear in ATOM RPG 2. The alpha, the update, and the DLC together set the near-term schedule: alpha and roadmap activity through Gamescom 2026 and a September closed beta, Early Access in December 2026, and the 1.2.1 update and Plague Island DLC in October.
