'Frostpunk 2' Partners With Sapphire For Custom AMD Radeon RX 7700 XT Bundle

by Rainier on May 16, 2024 @ 5:30 a.m. PDT

In Frostpunk 2 you are once again tasked with playing as the leader of a resource-hungry metropolis where the expansion and search for new sources of power is an unavoidable reality.

Thirty years have passed since the vicious storm that concluded the first chapter of humankind's survival story in Frostpunk, Earth is still overwhelmed by the neverending frost and harsh, icy climate. But the apocalyptic world has moved on. After the age of coal, conquering Frostland for the oil extraction industry is expected to be the new salvation of what’s left of humanity.

The City, settled around the Generator and its life-giving warmth, grew and progressed as the years ticked on. Years of whiteouts have changed the world, giving it a clean slate with which to write a new post-apocalyptic part of its story. Despite the noose of oppression again starting to tighten on a society that is struggling for life-preserving supplies—and increasingly bothered by inner squabbles after recent events—the world is once again facing an era of possibly prolific expansion.

Most notably, however, people changed. And once they feel like they’ve tamed the frost, and the bonding survival instinct has faded, their human nature will come into play, driven by ambition that could spiral The City into the fall.

However, change does not come easily, and not everyone in this new multi-layered society will welcome this new direction.

Frostpunk 2 developer 11 bit studios, and graphics products manufacturer SAPPHIRE Technology are thrilled to blow frozen air into the market of graphic cards.

Designed with the reflection of Frostpunk 2 themes, SAPPHIRE AMD Radeon RX 7700 XT contains a frosty-white fan shroud and an oil-black metal backplate with rusty accents. In the box, players will also find exclusive extras: three enamel pins, three keyboard keycaps, a keycap puller, and a PC code for the Deluxe Edition of Frostpunk 2.

Like frosty winds on the streets of New London, the card’s Tri-X Cooling Technology ensures that three white-coloured fans provide quiet and efficient cooling by creating a double layer of downward air pressure. The latest AMD RDNA 3 chiplet architecture provides performance even in the harshest realities, with strong gaming performance in AAA titles at Quad HD resolution.
