Hope rises, New Londoners.<\/b> 11 bit studios is proud to announce that Frostpunk 2<\/i> will arrive on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S on September 18th, 2025<\/b>. And there\u2019s more warmth in the air – to ensure every citizen their lawfully given access to goods<\/b>, the game is launching with physical editions<\/b>, carefully overseen in collaboration with Skybound Games<\/b> on both consoles. Additionally, Frostpunk 2<\/i> will be available on Xbox Game Pass<\/b> for consoles on day one.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>

Drawing from lessons learned during the original <\/span>Frostpunk<\/span><\/i>\u2019s console port, the development team has further refined the circular, easily navigable interface. The port allows players to guide the politics and people of New London with the palms of their hands, on controller and thumbsticks alike.<\/span>
\n<\/span>
\n<\/span>\u201cInitially, we tried to carry over as many interface solutions as possible,\u201d <\/span><\/i>reflects Igor Skibinski, Production Coordinator at the Frostpunk 2 team. <\/span>\u201cBut the two games differ so much in terms of gameplay that we had to adapt and rework those systems over time. Still, our main focus was to make interaction with the game feel seamless – so players never have to think about how to play while they\u2019re playing. Our ambition is to once again prove that even complex strategy games can feel intuitive and satisfying on consoles.\u201d<\/span><\/i>
\n<\/span>
\n<\/span>Several improvements help tailor the control scheme for gamepads and provide quick access to vital actions. Players can use bumper buttons to cycle between districts of the same type, or a dynamic radial menu that appears over resource piles and presents actions specific to them. Additionally, following the console release, the PC version of <\/span>Frostpunk 2<\/span><\/i> will receive an update enabling players to use this new UI scheme whenever a gamepad is connected.<\/span>
\n<\/span>
\n<\/span>The collaboration between 11 bit studios and Skybound Games continues a joint course across the Frostlands, culminating in <\/span>two premium physical editions<\/b>, releasing alongside the digital version on September 18th. The <\/span>Icebreaker Edition<\/b> and <\/span>Whiteout Edition<\/b> deliver collectible tributes worthy of New London\u2019s archives.<\/span>
\n<\/span>
\n<\/span>The <\/span>Icebreaker Edition<\/b> includes the full game on disc, a meticulously crafted pop-up diorama of New London, the chilling digital novella <\/span>Warm Flesh<\/span><\/i>, and a behind-the-scenes digital artbook chronicling the creation of this unforgiving world.<\/span><\/p>\n

The <\/span>Whiteout Edition<\/b> elevates the offering further, housing all Icebreaker contents within a multi-layered shadow box featuring integrated LED lighting and iconic key art. It also includes a <\/span>Deluxe Edition upgrade<\/b>, granting access to the <\/span>three upcoming DLCs<\/b>, alongside physical keepsakes: a deluxe metal-and-enamel keychain, two premium New London art postcards, Frostpunk-themed stickers, and one of two possible embroidered faction patches – either the disciplined <\/span>Technocrats<\/b> or the fervent <\/span>Icebloods<\/b>.<\/span><\/p>\n

A true collector\u2019s tribute to survival, sacrifice, and the City that must not fall.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>
