Frosthaven is a dark fantasy tactical RPG adaptation of the acclaimed board game of the same name from the mind of Isaac Childres!

In development from Snapshot Games, led by CEO Julian Gollop, who’s best known as the creator of X-COM, with Isaac Childres serving as a consultant on the project, Frosthaven is a dark fantasy tactical RPG evolution of the board game experience, where players can expect deep mechanics and challenging yet immensely satisfying gameplay both in Single Player and Co-Op Online Multiplayer.

As a spiritual successor to the board game Gloomhaven, seasoned veterans of the original board game or the video game will feel right at home venturing into the unforgiving and treacherous northern frontier of Frosthaven. Newcomers to the franchise can begin their epic adventure into the stunning world of Frosthaven, learn the game’s mechanics in an in-depth tutorial and choose from various difficulty modes tailored to their skill level. 

With Frosthaven, the brand-new character classes, each featuring unique playstyles and abilities, make it so that every decision matters. Players will need to balance risk and reward, working towards the best synergies between the classes comprising their party. Carefully managing resources is paramount to progress through a gripping campaign, set in a vast world filled with menacing enemies and diverse environments.


Snapshot Games and Arc Games revealed the Early Access (Steam and Epic Games Store) roadmap for Frosthaven, showcasing new content and characters to come to the game during its Early Access journey.
