Hello Citizens! Major Patch 1.3 Highlights: - AppStore fixes Saves should now be visible at all times, even when logged out of Game Center - New Map: The Pit Large map with distinctive "proto-crater" pit counted as mountain terrain. built around the remnants of a failed Generator project. Sandbox location available in Utopia Builder mode as a starting location or a Frostland colonization site, offering more variation to the gameplay. - Tales from the Frostland Narrative-driven optional challenges designed to deepen Utopia Builder’s replayability and storytelling. Take part in new challenges, each introducing a unique quest and storyline. Multiple Tales can be combined in a single playthrough. Complete a Tale to unlock a unique Monument Hub to “decorate” your city, but be careful: failure results in game over! Important: All Tales are designed to be easily expanded and modded by the community in the future! - Overhauled Heating System The biggest systemic change since launch: localized heat management bringing deeper strategy and consequences. Recognizing the legacy of Frostpunk, we've brought back a familiar yet improved approach to heat management in Frostpunk 2, starting with a redesigned Generator UI for better control and feedback. Now you can manage temperature by district, with unique local effects, and consequences when heat is lacking, such as sickness, injuries, or even death. Use the brand-new Heatmap View to visualize district temperature, insulation, heat sources, and proximity bonuses. The changes affect more than just temperature, they also impact your citizens. They now react to heating shortages through negotiations, protests, or praise. Deaths are now tied to specific factions and communities. - We’ve expanded the tech tree and laws, adding: 9 new research topics 2 new buildings 3 rebalanced technologies 1 new law 5 reworked laws - Serenity Mode A return of the beloved Frostpunk mode, offering a more relaxed playthrough. We’ve brought back a well-loved mode for those who want to explore the Frostlands without too much stress. Serenity Mode includes: - Gentler weather Abundant resources Shorter whiteouts No Fervour system (minimal protests, no faction conflict) This mode is fully compatible with other difficulty presets (e.g., Survivor, Extreme). - Core Game Improvements Subtle but impactful refinements across the board to improve playability and including hundreds of fixes! As we continue our commitment to developing Frostpunk 2, we’d like to turn up the heat a little and give you an overview of the new content update and what awaits you in New London—starting today. First of all, we’d like to thank you for all the feedback you’ve shared from the very beginning. It not only gives us valuable insights into what we can improve, but also sparks new ideas in our creative furnace every day. Without you, it would never have been possible to expand the Frostpunk universe as far as we have today. We remain committed to delivering all the DLCs and updates for Frostpunk 2, creating new opportunities for the franchise - just as we did with the Artbook & Anthology Kickstarter, and of course, with the recently announced Frostpunk 1886. Each of these projects has its own dedicated team, pouring heart and effort into every detail. So here’s a message from all of us to you: THANK YOU SO MUCH! We’re now reaching another milestone in Frostpunk 2’s journey with the release of Patch 1.3. Once you’ve played it, don’t forget to leave your review on AppStore!
