Frostpunk 2 Updated Roadmap Reveals Major Updates For the Game

11 bit studios has unveiled an updated roadmap for Frostpunk 2, outlining major content milestones and the anticipated console release. Since the game’s release last September, players have overseen the harsh realities of New London, and as the city expands its reach across the frozen wasteland, the studio is preparing to deliver significant new content throughout 2025.

The first major milestone arrives on May 8th, when a free content update will be released. This update aims to enhance city management mechanics, drawing inspiration from the systems established by the first settlers of New London. Players can expect improvements that refine governance while remaining faithful to the game’s core themes of survival and societal order.

Following the content update, summer 2025 will mark a pivotal moment for the franchise with the long-awaited console port. While Frostpunk 2 is currently only available on PC and PC Game Pass, this expansion will bring the game to a broader audience on consoles, including future availability through Xbox Game Pass.

As the year progresses, autumn will usher in the Spectrum DLC, a mysterious expansion that promises to delve deeper into the people of New London and their evolving society. While details remain scarce, the studio hints that the DLC will offer new insights into the city’s inhabitants and the challenges they face in their relentless struggle for survival.

Beyond these content releases, April 24th will mark a particularly significant occasion. This date commemorates the seventh anniversary of the first Frostpunk expedition—a journey guided by a resolute leader who shaped the city’s earliest foundations. In recognition of this milestone, 11 bit studios encourages the community to reflect on the game’s legacy and the enduring spirit of its people.

Throughout these updates, the studio emphasizes the vital role of the player community in shaping the game’s direction. Feedback, whether in the form of praise or criticism, is regarded as an essential part of improving the experience and ensuring the world of Frostpunk 2 continues to evolve.

Frostpunk 2 is currently available on PC via PC Game Pass, Steam, Epic Games Store, and GOG. It is slated for release on Xbox and PlayStation, including Xbox Game Pass in 2025.
