All of the Announced Updates Are Going To Be Free!
Frostpunk, a city-building survival game, is going to get a whole lot of free updates this year, according to its developers at 11 bit studios. The developers said that they took player feedback into account when deciding on what updates to have for this year’s roadmap.
Here’s the roadmap list posted on Steam:
1. Survivor – NEW MODE!
“Survivor update is bringing a brand new challange for those of you who have mastered the surviving techniques – even on the hardest difficulty setting. This mode will unlock some new, special modifiers that should make you sweat – even though it’s -120℃ out there! It’s our first big update and we plan to roll it out in June!”
2. People & Automatons – Basic Customization Options
“You asked us if we can give you some naming options for your citizens and automatons – and that’s exactly what we are doing. Oh, and we hope we can bring even more customization options in the future – but you gotta start somewhere, right?”
3. The Builders – NEW SCENARIO!
“This is the most substantial update for 2018. A brand new scenario, with its own story and challenge. We won’t spoil anything at all at the moment – but let’s just say you should stay excited.”
4. Endurance – NEW GAME MODE!
“One of the major requests from you was to implement some kind of endless or sandbox mode. Endurance Game Mode is our response to your needs. But as you can expect from us – it’s gonna be our distinctive take on this feature.”
5. Winter Snapshots – Update
“Let’s admit it – Frostpunk looks good. And we want you to be able to capture its beauty with more precise tools. That’s why we plan to introduce a special photo/screenshot tool so you can snap some icy, intense pics of New London. We’ve also prepared a special surprise for this update – but we’re not spoiling that, either.”
11 bit studios also hinted at more content coming next year: “Of course – that’s not the end of the journey,” their Steam post read. “That’s just how much stuff we were able to pack into year 2018. But we have more ideas (and we bet you have some, too) to implement in upcoming year 2019…”
