Frostpunk 2 Developers Unveil 2025 and Future Content Roadmap

Here’s what you need to know about Frostpunk 2’s exciting future. 11 bit studios has rolled out a roadmap for the game, detailing a series of updates and fresh content slated for 2025. There’s a free major update on the horizon, along with some new paid DLCs. Plus, the developers are committed to rolling out hotfixes and improvements to maintain stability. For console enthusiasts, Frostpunk 2 will land on Xbox, and fans subscribed to Xbox Game Pass can look forward to a seamless experience in 2025. And for PC gamers, Patch 1.2 is already live and kicking today.

Frostpunk 2 is gearing up for an eventful year with its ambitious roadmap. This follows the release of the survival simulator on PC and PC Game Pass last September. While the console launch is still shrouded in a bit of mystery, the developers have circled 2025 for its debut, without locking down an exact date.

If you’re eager to see what’s planned, the roadmap gives us a peek into the timeline. Patch 1.2, which launches today for PC and PC Game Pass users, is just the tip of the iceberg. Expect the first big content upgrade to roll out early next year. Intrigue builds with an enigmatic event set for April 24, marked on the roadmap like a treasure on a map. It’s only after this mystery event that we’re likely to see the console version emerge around late spring or early summer of 2025.

As the year unfolds, 11 bit studios intends to release two DLCs – the Spectrum DLC and the Aurora DLC – rounding off 2025 with more content to keep players engaged. And they’re not stopping there. Another DLC is teasingly planned to drip-frost into 2026. But with only the April 24 announcement confirmed so far, we’re left on tenterhooks wondering what surprises are beneath Frostpunk’s icy veneer.

Frostpunk 2 continues to delve into the harsh realities of a freezing new world, building upon the city’s chilly legacy. Its sequel explores sociopolitical elements that challenge players in novel ways as they navigate survival amidst a relentless ice age.

The original game was widely praised, and Frostpunk 2 is living up to its legacy with solid reviews. On PC, it currently holds an 85 on Metacritic and “Mostly Positive” feedback on Steam. To celebrate the launch of Patch 1.2, there’s a limited-time 20% discount on Steam, so it’s a great moment to jump in if you haven’t already.
