Frostpunk 2 gets July 2024 release on PC (pre-orders live right now)
The highly-anticipated sequel to 2018’s city-building survival game Frostpunk will arrive this summer.
Revealed today, Frostpunk 2 will make its way to Windows PC on July 25. The title will also make its way to PC Game Pass on day one. Pre-orders for the game can be made here. The Digital Deluxe edition includes Frostpunk 2, a seven-day beta access to part of the Sandbox mode in April, three paid post-release DLCs, exclusive access to the story mode 72 hours before the official release, the Warm Flesh digital novella (an enticing excerpt from the upcoming Frostpunk book anthology), a digital artbook, and soundtrack.
A synopsis for Frostpunk 2 reads:
Diving even deeper into the post-apocalyptic abyss, Frostpunk 2 builds upon the foundations that made its predecessor a triumph. It thrusts players into a world of unyielding realities and complex social dilemmas within an ever-expanding city. With a broader scope and expansion in every aspect of the gameplay mechanics, Frostpunk 2 escalates the tension as you steer the City and its inhabitants into an uncertain future.
Much of that tension comes from introducing different factions within the City walls vying for allegiance among its citizens. Will you bend your decisions to the survivalist nature of the Icebloods, advocates of adaptation over development? Or will you side with the methodical Technocrats, champions of technological progress? Perhaps, you might even side with one of the more radicalized groups you’ll meet in-game. It’s up to you - the City’s Steward.
Frostpunk 2 is slated to arrive on consoles and Xbox Game Pass in the future.
