As a seasoned gamer with over two decades of frosty adventures under my belt, I’ve seen cities rise and fall, leaders become legends, and temperatures plummet to unimaginable depths. The recent update for Frostpunk 2 has left me absolutely chilled to the bone – in a good way!
A new update is available for 11 bit studios’ Frostpunk 2, and it’s a doozy, addressing feedback and implementing several new features. These include options to stop construction and frostbreaking, edge scrolling, setting the frequency of autosaves and “large-scale” optimizations to game performance.
Remarkable enhancements have been made, such as Frostbreaker now cleansing up to eight areas, the Idea Tree better highlighting ongoing studies, a broader scope for examining the frostland map, and color-coding for district borders. Moreover, Nomads will be more noticeable in the Prologue, with frostbreaking performed manually instead of using machines to boost immersion.
Take a look at the adjustments outlined below for more information. You can find our review of Frostpunk 2 here. The game has sold over 350,000 copies within a short period on PC. For additional content, three post-release DLC packs are currently available. Additionally, the developers at 11 bit studios are working on versions for Xbox Series X/S and PS5, but there is no set release date yet. Keep an eye out for further updates in the meantime.
