Frostpunk 2 for PC delayed to September 20
Publisher and developer 11 bit studios have delayed Frostpunk 2 from its previously planned July 25 release date to September 20. It will be available for PC via Steam, Epic Games Store, and GOG. PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series versions will follow at a later date.
“Based on the surveys we received after playing beta, the average rating you gave us was 8 out of 10,” said Frostpunk 2 design director Jakub Stokalski and art director Lukasz Juszczyk in a statement. “We’re super grateful for that! At the same time, it was only a small slice of a work-in-progress, still-growing game. While our backlog is plentiful, it was an opportunity for us to listen to what you enjoyed, and what didn’t quite land yet.”
The statement continues, “This allowed us to prioritize things better, and bring upfront the features and modifications we were already working on. But we also realized that to guarantee the best possible experience on launch, we need more time to finish the development of Frostpunk 2. That’s why we made the difficult decision to postpone its release to September 20, 2024.”
The scope of new works includes new additions to the game mechanics, extensive user interface and user experience enhancements, a popular by-demand city feature called “Zoom Stories,” and more. Further details can can be found here.
