The first big update for Frostpunk 2 introduces a new map called The Pit, featuring a distinctive 'proto-crater' pit counted as mountain terrain.
The heating system in Frostpunk 2 has undergone a major overhaul, with heat management localized to individual districts, each having unique effects and consequences if not kept warm.
The update brings back Serenity mode from the first game, offering a stress-free experience with gentler weather, more resources, and no conflict between factions.
Additional challenges with unique quests and storylines, improved tutorials, rebalanced prologue, and modding tools out of beta are part of the update, with promises of more free big updates and future DLC from 11 bit studios.
