Bluepoch’s time-hopping tactics RPG is crossing over with one of the more memorable FPS games of recent years. The Reverse: 1999 × Atomic Heart collaboration launches on 23 July 2026, bringing two new playable characters, an original crossover story, and more than 110 free pulls — and for the first time ever, the Chinese and international versions of Reverse: 1999 will go live on the exact same day.
Meet The Twins — Reverse: 1999’s First Dual-Afflatus Unit
The Twins are Atomic Heart’s iconic humanoid robot bodyguards reimagined as Reverse: 1999’s newest 5-star character — and they arrive with a mechanic the game has never seen before. As the first dual-Afflatus unit, The Twins can deal damage across two Afflatus types simultaneously and equip two separate exclusive Psychubes at once, pulling the full base stats and effects from both. In a game where Psychube optimisation separates good builds from great ones, that is a meaningful mechanical edge. They will be available through a limited collaboration banner; reaching 100 summons lets you choose either The Twins or a Suitcase Impression, with additional milestone rewards at 160, 220, and 280 pulls.
Nora Is Free — Just Play the Event
Nora, Atomic Heart’s repair cabinet antagonist, joins as a free 4-star character obtainable purely through in-game collab activities. You also get a free monthly pass and a free character garment (Brimley) as part of the rewards package. For players who just want to collect without spending, the collab is unusually generous: over 110 free pulls in total, distributed across the event’s reward structure. That is enough to make multiple meaningful attempts at The Twins banner.
Vertin Goes to Facility 3826
The event story sends Vertin, X, Madam Lucy, and Mesmer Jr. into the retrofuturistic alternate history of Atomic Heart‘s Facility 3826. If you have played Atomic Heart and want to see how Bluepoch wrote the crossover, this is an original narrative rather than a straight retelling — the Reverse: 1999 cast is inserted into an unfamiliar world rather than simply wearing Atomic Heart skins. New cosmetic garments inspired by Facility 3826’s retrofuturist aesthetic are available for existing characters alongside the new ones.

What Singapore Players Need to Know
Reverse: 1999 is available in Singapore on Steam (PC), iOS App Store, and Google Play — no VPN needed, no regional lock. The July 23 launch is globally synchronised, so Singapore players are in the same pool as everyone else the moment the update drops. The collab also comes with a redemption code — AtomicHeartCollab0723 — that can be entered in-game for additional rewards. Bluepoch has confirmed the 110+ free pulls figure encompasses all in-game missions, login bonuses, and milestone rewards across the full event window, so you do not have to be a day-one player to collect the bulk of the freebies.
