Hey everyone, 11 bit studios just dropped a new dev update for Frostpunk 1886, and it looks amazing! The director, Maciej Sulecki, gave us a walkthrough, and honestly, the game has gotten a huge visual overhaul. They’ve really refined the gameplay mechanics too, and their vision for this reimagining of Frostpunk in Unreal Engine is super ambitious. I’m seriously excited to see more!
The update highlights the following improvements:
- Smarter, more expressive citizens driven by improved animations and motion capture; in this city, every shiver counts.
- Richer slices of daily life across New London, building deeper emotional connection to the lives you’re responsible for (no pressure).
- A redesigned lighting system to sharpen the brutal beauty of the Frostland and let the cold truly bite.
- Overhauled building textures to make our fragile, flickering civilization feel even more tangible and lived-in.
Frostpunk 1886 is due out for PC via Steam in 2027.
