76% Informative

Atomfall is the latest release from Oxford -based Rebellion , best known for Sniper Elite series .

It is set in the Lake District , but on an alternative sci-fi inspired timeline where the area surrounding the plant has become a quarantine zone.

The Windscale fire was one of the world's first - and remains the UK 's worst - nuclear accident.

A nuclear reactor at the site in Cumbria caught fire and burned for three days .

Oliver Hodgson , 21 , is working with the creators of a project to create a 4 m gaming hub in Whitehaven aimed at boosting digital skills in the area.

"I think it's really positive to see such a big gaming developer set a story in Cumbria , which is normally just known for its lakes and mountains".
