Atomic Heart: Blood on Crystal launched on April 16, 2026 as the fourth and final story DLC for Atomic Heart. It released across the same platforms as the base game: PC, PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X|S, and Xbox One. (gematsu.com)

Blood on Crystal is available on PC (Steam/Epic/Windows), PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X|S, and Xbox One and requires the base Atomic Heart game to run. The DLC was distributed digitally on the same storefronts as the main game. (store.steampowered.com)

The DLC itself is sold individually and is also included in Atomic Heart’s season/Atomic Pass; it is bundled into higher-tier game editions such as the Gold/Premium bundles and the newly announced Ultimate Edition (digital and physical) that collects the base game plus all four Atomic Pass DLCs and extras. Physical Ultimate Editions for current-gen consoles were announced alongside the DLC launch. (store.steampowered.com)

Atomic Heart and its DLC content (including Blood on Crystal) are single-player, narrative-focused experiences; there is no multiplayer or co-op component in this DLC. The content expands the single-player story and PvE encounters inside Facility 3826. (en.wikipedia.org)

Blood on Crystal continues Atomic Heart’s first-person shooter/RPG formula: expect weapon combat, melee moves, and upgrade systems combined with the protagonist’s polymer glove powers (elemental/utility abilities), new enemy types and bosses, and additional weapons and glove skins introduced by the Atomic Pass. The DLC focuses on new story areas within Facility 3826 and adds encounter- and boss-focused content alongside the base game’s crafting/upgrade progression. (tomsguide.com)

Blood on Crystal is DLC for a first-person shooter / action-RPG (single-player) that continues Atomic Heart’s mix of FPS combat, power-based abilities, and environmental puzzles. The series is frequently compared to BioShock and other single-player narrative FPSes that blend powers and weaponry, such as Prey and Control. (en.wikipedia.org)

System requirements for the DLC follow the base game’s PC specs: the published minimum is around 8 GB RAM with older-generation CPUs (examples cited: Intel Core i5-2500 / AMD Ryzen 3 1200) and ~4 GB-class GPUs as absolute minimum, while recommended PC specs for a solid 1080p/60 experience list GPUs like the NVIDIA RTX 2070 / RTX 3060–RTX 3070-class or AMD RX 6700 XT and 12–16 GB RAM — Mundfish also recommends installing the game on an SSD. Exact requirements depend on final settings and platform; these figures are based on the base game's published PC specs. (twinfinite.net)

Blood on Crystal is itself the fourth and final paid story DLC in the Atomic Pass. Previous paid story expansions are Annihilation Instinct (DLC

1, Aug 2, 2023), Trapped in Limbo (DLC #2, Feb 6, 2024), and Enchantment Under the Sea (DLC #3, Jan 28, 2025); the Atomic Pass / Gold/Ultimate editions collect all four. (gematsu.com)

The Atomic Heart product line includes paid DLC and cosmetic packs; storefront listings for the base game and DLC show in‑game purchases and separate cosmetic bundles (skins/Atomic Pass content) are sold or included in higher-tier editions. The DLC itself is paid content, and Atomic Pass / cosmetic items are available on platform stores. (store.playstation.com)

Yes — the Atomic Pass is the game’s season/season‑pass model: it bundles the four story DLC chapters (including Blood on Crystal) and some exclusive weapons/skins; the pass is included with the Gold/Premium/Ultimate editions or can be purchased separately where offered. (store.steampowered.com)

Accessibility for Atomic Heart (and its DLCs) has improved via post‑launch patches: updates added options such as colorblind modes, adjustable subtitle/UI size, auto‑QTE, auto‑heal, and FOV/subtitle fixes, plus difficulty presets; some accessibility features were patched in after release rather than being present at launch. Availability of specific options may vary by platform and patch level. (support.focus-entmt.com)

The game and its DLC support keyboard & mouse on PC and standard gamepad controllers on consoles (and on PC); post‑launch updates added improved FOV, subtitle/UI size, and controller remapping support, and various DualSense/DualShock/Xbox controller features are usable depending on platform. Steam Deck/controller support and remapping options have been expanded through updates. (mp1st.com)

Blood on Crystal was developed by Mundfish and published by Focus Entertainment (with platform storefront distribution for PC and console partners). The DLC is an official Mundfish expansion to the Atomic Heart property. (gamingtrend.com)
