Mick Gordon announced that his entire fee for the game’s soundtrack atomic heart donates to the Australian Red Cross for a collection in support of Ukraine in the war with Russia. The money will be used to provide housing, hygiene or medical care.
The famous Australian composer, best known for soundtracks to Doom and Doom Eternal, was approached by the Russian studio Mundfish in April 2020, “almost two years before the brutal and unjustified invasion of the Russian military into Ukraine, which Ukrainians suffered.” .

Gordon was excited about the opportunity to work on Atomic Heart. In a subsequent interview with UK Eurogamer, he praised Mundfish and its international art team. 130 developers from more than ten countries participate in the game..
“I think it is important to separate the actions of the government from the actions of individual citizens. The talented Mundfish team has worked hard for many years to create a unique and original project, and I am grateful for the opportunity to contribute,” said Gordon.
My musical contribution to #AtomicHeart will also support a bigger deal. I donated my fee @RedCrossAUUkrainian Crisis Call for solidarity with the people of Ukraine.
If you have the opportunity, consider donating.

He also devoted himself to the work itself. He mentions his love for Soviet-era synthesizers, which influenced the music for Atomic Heart.. He developed special tuning scales for his synthesizers, specifically designed to reflect crazy robots in the game and creative world building.
“One of the instruments I used to achieve this sound was synthesizer Aelita, a rare Soviet-era synthesizer known for its unusual sound and quirky design. His signature sound helped me capture the surrealism and imagery of his playing, giving the music an authentic Soviet-era feel. I am very proud of the work that my fellow composers and I have done on the Atomic Heart soundtrack,” he added in an interview with Eurogamer. They also participated in music Boris Breycha And Geoffrey Day.
Atomic Heart will release on February 21, 2023 on PC, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, Xbox One, and PlayStation 4. The game will be available on Game Pass for Xbox and PC on the same day.
