Atomic Heart has been one of the year's more memorable games for me: a beautiful, flawed and deeply weird Soviet Westworld, per PCG's Atomic Heart review. One element of the game that attracted particular attention from players was a lustful fridge called Nora, which had people alternately grossed-out, confused, and inexplicably thirsty. Developer Mundfish has clearly been taking notes and, sure enough, the game's first DLC is gonna be all about the lore of a horny appliance.
The DLC's name could be a forgotten Jean Claude Van Damme movie: Annihilation Instincts. This title apparently refers to an AI gone rogue and this is set after the game's ending in the "mind-bending Mendeleev Complex and its surrounding swamps" where we will apparently "discover the truth about Nora".
