11 Bit Studios have been teasing something big this week and it’s finally revealed - Frostpunk 2 is real and is set 30 years after the events of the first game. Humanity is still alive and surviving but is going through another set of challenges as they continue to overcome a world now completely covered in snow.

The Epic Games Store Mega Sale continues and with it a free mystery game given out for free throughout the week. And for this week the world can pick up Frostpunk, a punishing survival strategy game from developers 11 Bit Studios.

The Rifts is the first expansion from the Season Pass for Frostpunk but can also be purchased separately. The game was updated with three new Endless Mode maps for free.

Frostpunk players gets Endless Mode for free and has two variants: “Serenity” an “Endurance”.

An endless sandbox mode, screenshot tools and customization options are among some of the free updates 11 Bit guarantees will be adding to its ice-cold city sim.

“Yes, we had plans for the expansions and now we're 100% sure we are doing that, including many free updates of course!”

What separates Frostpunk from other city builders like it is the tension between ethics and expediency, morality and morale. Your decisions will cost you either your humanity or your principles.

Frostpunk, the city-building survival game from the makers of This War of Mine will be out by March 2018. Until then, we've got a short new video that showcases the automatons.
