As with other open-world games, you can expect Mundfish’s Atomic Heart features this popular mechanic too. Obtaining Recipes lets you craft consumables, weapons, ammo, and cartridges. Here’s how you can get new Recipes or Blueprints in Atomic Heart.
Atomic Heart – How to Get New Recipes
Most of the time, new Recipes can be found in chests, drawers, and cabinets in Breakrooms and other areas all over Atomic Heart‘s wilderness. Some Recipes can also appear in multiple locations; some players even claimed that their locations are actually randomized between playthroughs.
Of course, finding the Blueprints for the Recipe won’t instantly give you the items. You will need to collect the materials and craft them first, too, before being able to use them!
