Description

The Xbox version of Frostpunk 2 does not feature Mods created by the players community. Only the PC version currently enables those Mods.

Frostpunk 2 elevates the city-survival genre to a new level. Take the role of a Steward and lead your city through a cascade of calamities taking place in a postapocalyptic, snowy setting. Build large city districts with their string of endless needs and demands. Navigate through conflicting interests of factions that populate your metropolis. As the needs of the city grow and factional power at its core rises, only you can steer the society towards an uncertain future.

The city grows
The world is overtaken by an ever present winter, which makes expansion of the city the only way for the survival of mankind. In order to grow, the metropolis needs resources like coal and oil, just like its citizens require food and warmth. In Frostpunk 2, it's your job to tackle this never ending circle of supply and demand.

City districts
Your city is divided into zones serving different purposes, such as housing or extraction. It’s up to you to build new ones and make sure that those already existing work in perfect unison.

Special buildings
In time, you will have to build places like City Hall or Research Institute. Inside these buildings, you will put forth laws and projects to ensure that your city develops in the proper direction.

Colonies
To ensure that your city growth will not falter, you have to venture into the frostland. There, you can build extensive colonies that will provide all the necessary resources.

Perlis of human nature
The number of your citizens steadily grows, making the task of governing them and satisfying their demands all the more challenging. As the Steward you will have to maneuver carefully across the interests of many groups inhabiting the city.

New Londoners
Your citizens can form communities and factions, each with different ideas for the city’s future. In the Council Hall you’ll put forth laws and negotiate them with the faction’s delegates.

Council Hall
Support of every faction inside the Council Hall costs dearly, as one’s faction ascension breeds discontent among others. That means you have to carefully think through every alliance.

Towards progress
The Research Institute is where you forge the city's future. Each new project must be entrusted to a faction, forcing you to maneuver and form strategic alliances.

Factions
People of your city want to have a voice in how you run things. Each faction has its own ideology and ideas for the future, yet they also have one thing in common - insatiable thirst for power. Choose your allies in the Council Hall wisely.

Story Mode and Utopia Builder
The story of Frostpunk 2 introduces a multi-chapter saga set in the frozen wastes. Spanning across the life of the Steward this campaign lets you feel the burden of leadership as you take the responsibility for thousands of lives. At the same time, the sandbox mode called Utopia Builder with infinite play time leaves you room for boundless social and infrastructural experiments.

Great single-player game, bit more different from the first in matter of gameplay. Great story, nice random Utopia mode.

Awesome game like 9/10 for me. The real sequel and not copy paste from the previous one.

For me there are no experiences of success. Whenether i manage 1 resource for example materials, you need to replace some other resources before u run out of it. Ur constantly on the edge, even on the low difficulty.

Sad that the Frostland map is so small (could be much bigger without much work for the developer studio).

Also in the past illness was a big part of Frostpunk. Now i think u can just ignore it.

For me Oil isnt a big part of the game. I use coal and steam for almost everything. The Autonome maschines are gone. I hate this very much. They were a big part of the Frostpunk universe. Now u only see them on paper yk.

Now the positives: Love the legislative and fractions, its cool to have more energy variants.



Sum up: Personaly i dont enjoy the game. The missing feeling of sucess and the constantly feeling of colapsing is making me only stressful and unhappy. So sad.

  • No feeling of sucess
  • No autonomes

I personally loved the first game and this one is different in a way that leaves me unsatisfied. More like a strategy game than a city builder which will be fine for some and not for others. Story was also less compelling IMO.

Very ambitious game built on a great foundation, unfortunatly it doesn't feel complete yet, specially when the Devs already planned 3 DLC's in the future.

It's an unfinished game, but its getting patches and fixes every month.

Still good game that i come back to once in a while.

A good 8/10,, when it's finished i might give it a 9/10.
  • Great Soundtrack
  • Fantastic Sci-fi Citybuilder
  • Who doesn't love this depresive scenario
  • Doesn't have the "magic" of Frostpunk 1
