Expand Your Frostpunk Experience

If you`re looking for other ways to immerse yourself in the harsh world of Frostpunk, consider the Frostpunk Board Game. Designed for one to four players, this strategy game challenges players to guide a small group of survivors towards victory, which can be achieved through various leadership styles—from tyrannical to tactical. The board game is often available with discounts and provides an intense game night experience, typically lasting around two hours.

Alternatively, console players can prepare for Frostpunk 2 by playing the original Frostpunk game. While not strictly necessary for understanding the sequel, playing the first game can offer valuable context and enhance your appreciation for small details in Frostpunk 2. Available for both Xbox One and PS4, it`s an excellent choice for fans of survival and city-building genres, providing ample engagement until the September 18 release of the sequel.
