Frostpunk 2 is coming to consoles on September 18, will receive two different physical editions, and will be joining the console version of Xbox Game Pass on day one, developer 11 bit studios has announced.
The game is already on PC Game Pass, but will be added to the console version on release day. As for the physical editions, they will come in two different versions. One, the Icebreaker Edition, includes the game, a digital novella, digital artbook, and a pop-up diorama of the game’s New London. A pricier Whiteout Edition includes all of the goodies from the Icebreaker version but also includes access to three of Frostpunk 2’s upcoming DLC releases as well as more physical goodies in the form of a keychain, New London postcards, stickers, and a faction patch.
In a press release, 11 bit studios production coordinator Igor Skibinski said the goal with the console version of the post-apocalyptic strategy game was to make its controls seamless. After the console version’s release, an update will come to the PC version that will enable the console version’s UI when using a controller.
