What it is
Atomega is a multiplayer first-person arena shooter from Ubisoft Reflections, built around collecting mass and evolving during a match. Players begin as the small Atom form and grow through increasingly powerful forms toward Omega. Absorbing mass earns points and changes a player’s form; the player with the most points at the end wins. Each form has different strengths: smaller forms can move unseen, while larger ones bring more strength and firepower but also become bigger targets. Players compete online with up to seven others across different arenas, using power-ups for temporary abilities and teleporting to escape trouble. The Steam listing includes multiplayer, PvP and online PvP, plus achievements, controller support, trading cards, cloud support and Family Sharing. Atomega is listed for Microsoft Windows and was released on September 19, 2017.
