Frostpunk 2 Gameplay Trailer Confirms the RTS Coming to Xbox Game Pass on Day One
/
11 Bit Studios released our first look at gameplay for Frostpunk 2, the sequel to their post-apocalyptic city-builder that was released back in 2018. The trailer also confirmed that the RTS will be available on PC Game Pass, and later on Xbox Game Pass for the console version of the game for Xbox Series X|S.
“As a Steward in Frostpunk 2, you will oversee an evergrowing metropolis and be required to carefully weigh the needs and demands of its society.” says a synopsis for the game. “Your people are concerned with the fate of their children and crimes on the streets. They complain about unhealthy squalor, escalated by industrial growth, but need places to work. And what if you cannot afford to reward their toil with food and shelter or take care of their health? You can’t please everyone and when radical factions start rising, it only takes a tiny spark for the boiling tension to blow up.”
”Thirty years after the Great Storm, the tyranny has ended. The delegates can vote, with or without certain persuasions, to pass laws to fulfill people’s will and steer the entire City into one of many futures.”
Frostpunk 2 is set to launch in the first half of 2024 and will also be available on the PlayStation 5.
Life is Strange: Double Exposure brings back Max Caulfield with new time-manipulation powers, but struggles to capture the original’s emotional weight. While the dual-timeline mechanic is engaging, the story’s weak twists, forgettable characters, and technical issues hold it back. A nostalgic revisit, but not a standout entry in the series.
