Publisher and developer 11 bit studios has announced that Frostpunk 2 will launch for PC via Steam, Epic Games Store, and GOG on July 25, followed by PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series at a later date. The game will be available for PC Game Pass and Xbox Game Pass upon launch.
The Digital Deluxe Edition will include the base game, seven-day beta access to part of the Sandbox mode in April, three paid post-launch DLC, exclusive access to the story mode 72 hours before the official launch, the digital novel “Warm Flesh” and an art book and digital soundtrack.
Game Description:
Frostpunk 2 delves even deeper into the post-apocalyptic abyss, building on the foundation that made its predecessor a triumph. Immerses players in a world of unforgiving realities and complex social dilemmas within an ever-expanding city. With a broader scope and expansion in all aspects of gameplay, Frostpunk 2 ramps up the tension as you guide the City and its inhabitants into an uncertain future.
Much of that tension comes from the introduction of different factions within the City’s walls fighting for loyalty among its citizens. Will you bend your decisions towards the survivalist nature of the Icebloods, advocates of adaptation over development? Or will you ally yourself with the Methodical Technocrats, champions of technological progress? Maybe you’ll even side with one of the most radicalized groups you’ll meet in the game. It’s up to you, the City Steward.
Conclusion:
The announcement of the launch of Frostpunk 2 has generated great expectations among fans of the original game and lovers of the strategy genre. With its focus on complex social dilemmas and unique gameplay, Frostpunk 2 promises to deliver an exciting and challenging experience for PC and console players when it launches this summer.
