The unique recreation targeted in your constructing a metropolis in the course of a disastrous ice age to shelter your individuals.

The brand new trailer doesn’t have quite a lot of info we don’t already know (other than the discharge date), however it does give us one other glimpse on the course it’s going with huge, sprawling cities in comparison with the intimate ones of the unique.

I loved the unique Frostpunk, however after I accomplished its marketing campaign (on perhaps my third try), I didn’t have a lot need to return to it or its DLC. I like survival metropolis builders, although, and Frostpunk is royalty amongst them, so I’ll in all probability give the second a strive.
