Atomcraft

The release date for Atomcraft is July 23, 2026, on PC. This sandbox adventure uses a chemical engine where every pixel on the planet functions as a distinct physical element that reacts to its environment.

You are tasked with repairing a crashed spaceship by harvesting all 118 elements of the periodic table through deep-crust mining and industrial smelting. The depth comes from building functional hardware out of individual pixels, including logic gates, sensors, and wiring to automate dangerous chemical reactions. Handling volatile substances like nitroglycerin requires precise engineering of cooling systems and containment vessels to prevent catastrophic failures. It effectively combines the open-ended digging of a traditional sandbox with the rigid logic of a chemistry simulation.

This is a high-priority title for players who enjoy automation and complex engineering systems.
