Guide to Obtaining Atomic Batteries in Atomfall

In *Atomfall*, Atomic Batteries are crucial for advancing the storyline and can significantly enhance your bartering power if you manage to secure extras. Here’s a comprehensive guide on how to acquire Atomic Batteries in *Atomfall*.

How To Find Atomic Batteries With Leads in Atomfall

Finding and depositing Atomic Batteries at The Interchange is vital for progressing the main story in *Atomfall*. Fortunately, the game provides Leads that guide you to their locations. Here are the Leads I've discovered so far:

“A Fruitful Trade” indicates that the Reverend obtained his Atomic Battery from a trader named Molly, located at a camp west of Wyndham Village. Molly is known to favor Molotov Cocktails in trades and has another battery available for barter.

“Batteries and All” suggests that druids might have Atomic Batteries in their castle within Casterfell Woods, southwest of the region. Navigate through the camp to a door flanked by blue fire torches, leading to the Castle Ruins. You'll find the battery next to a High Priestess overlooking a valley.

“Battery Request at the Skethermoor Depot” points to a battery in the Skethermoor Vehicle Depot, southeast of Skethermoor at coordinates 43.4 E, 74.6 N. Look for a blue hatch near two greenhouses on a hill, enter, and head to the main room. Clear out any Outlaws, then proceed to the room on the left, climb into the room with the red light, and squeeze through a vent to find a key. Use this key to unlock the room at the far right of the main area to retrieve the Atomic Battery. Ensure you have Radiation Resistance to survive the environment.

“Molly Sold a Battery to the Vicar” reveals another battery sold to the vicar at St. Katherine’s Church in Wyndham Village. This lead can be ignored if you've already obtained the Reverend’s battery.

“Revered Got His Hands on a Battery” is a note from Alf hinting at the Reverend’s battery in St. Katherine’s Church, Wyndham Village. Inside the church, you'll find the Reverend covering up a murder. By choosing to stay silent and blackmail him, you can secure the key to his chest upstairs, which contains the Atomic Battery.

“Spare Batteries at the Dam” leads to Atomic Batteries at the Dam in Casterfell Wood, northwest at coordinates 20.9 E, 90.9 N. The battery is in the electrical area on the right side. Enter the Control Room, go left, and pull the Substation Override lever until the right light turns red to safely power down the area and retrieve the battery.

Can You Barter for Batteries in Atomfall? Answered

If you struggle to find Atomic Batteries, bartering is another effective method. Molly and other traders might have batteries, as their inventory rotates periodically. When bartering, pay attention to the icons next to items: green indicates high value, yellow moderate, and red low value. Experimenting with different items can help you secure a better trade for Atomic Batteries.

How To Extract Atomic Batteries from Robots in Atomfall

In *Atomfall*, Protocol deploys massive, armored robots across the Zone, often guarding key areas or patrolling. These robots are powered by Atomic Batteries, which you can claim if you disable them. The safest approach is to target robots with flamethrowers using a rifle from a distance. Shoot the red barrels to overheat and stun the robot, then quickly approach to extract the Atomic Battery from its back.

*Atomfall* is now available on PC, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, and Xbox Game Pass.
