InAtomic Heart,players take control of P-3 as he fights his way through Facility 3826 to stop a robotic revolution. The first few levels of the game are straightforward corridor shooting. Once players reach the over-world, there are a few new mechanics introduced. One of these is the Hawk security balloons.
These balloons act as the central hub of the facility’s security, covering large areas. After taking a train to Lesnaya Station, players are tasked with entering the Exhibition Park. P-3 needs to use the nearby Volan Tower and Hawk to do so. This acts as a tutorial of sorts on how to deal with security in the open-world portions ofAtomic Heart. Follow this guide to order the Hawk to land on the ground.
