Frostpunk is a city-survival game in which heat means life, and every decision comes with a cost. Living among the frozen remnants of Earth, it is up to you to shape society, establishing the laws and customs to ensure survival.
The premise begins by imagining what society is capable of when pushed to the limit. In a completely frozen world, people develop steam-powered technology to oppose the overwhelming cold. Society in its current form becomes ineffective and it has to change in order to survive. What does this change mean? What is culture when morality stands in the way of existence? In the end, survival may transform us completely. Whether that change makes us better or worse, stronger or weaker, or even more or less humane is debatable.
With the future of humankind in your hands, Frostpunk is both a challenge of tactical planning and a test of your own humanity.
The struggle for survival in New London continues, as 11 bit studios is happy to announce that Frostpunk is coming to Nintendo Switch and Nintendo Switch 2 on October 19th.
Key Features:
MAKE THE LAW: Establish laws that regulate the existence of your growing society. Decide on their working routine, healthcare, food provision, and other crucial aspects of everyday life.
SHAPE YOUR SOCIETY: If you reach a turning point, do not hesitate to determine the path of your people. Should you rule them with an iron fist... or show them a way of compassion and faith?
WEIGH UP YOUR CHOICES: Your people put their faith in you, but their devotion is not limitless. Leadership can be a burden.
DEVELOP NEW TECHNOLOGIES: Survival demands progress. React to current events, but don't forget about the long term - investing in development and technological progress.
EXPLORE THE FROSTLANDS: While New London is your main focus, there is much more to the world than what lies within the limits of your city. Expeditions, while risky, can bring you valuable intel, precious supplies, and grow your society's population.
PLAY ENDLESSLY: Frostpunk Endless Mode grants unlimited replayability. Serenity Mode is focused on enjoying the art of building the city itself, without unnecessary pressure.
Currently available for PS4, Xbox One and PC (Steam, GOG.com, and Humble Store), Frostpunk is coming to Nintendo Switch and Nintendo Switch 2 on October 19, 2026.
