Poland-based developer Atomic Wolf announced their latest game on the way this week called 4 Minutes To The Apocalypse. The game is an action-adventure title, but the plot of it isn't too clear. The promotion for the game questions whether or not you have the stomach to hit the button launching the world into a nuclear war. Its a bit of a mystery what you'd exactly be doing in the game, but the look of it is intriguing. The game will be released sometime in 2021, but for now, you can read a little of the promotional material for it and watch the announcement trailer.

The history of the world we know shrank into two time periods only: "before" and "after." Before the first rocket attack, and after it, when everything started to happened so fast it's now hard to determine the exact course of events. Retaliatory strikes were launched one after another with only a few minutes interval. Millions of people were swept off the face of the earth in seconds, the largest cities were razed to the ground, command centers were destroyed, and governments ceased to exist. Those who survived wished they were dead, as they were left to face a world where each passing hour and day plunged into ever-increasing chaos. And yet, this was just the beginning.

For some unknown reason, the vast majority of weapons that belong to the arsenal called "The Last Day Weapons" were not used. Created to deter, and now left without any control, they are powerful enough to end what remains of life on our planet if they fall into the wrong hands. One of the most dangerous weapons of this arsenal is the Arizona-12 – a secret submarine and military unit that you're serving on. It doesn't take long for anybody who still has any sort of power left to start asking themselves who will take control over it – and what it will be used for.
