The game will be available worldwide, with the price at 29.99 USD / 32.99 EUR. Any media outlet willing to try it out already is more than welcomed to contact us and we will grant the access.

For them, we have prepared a brand new patch 1.3.3, which brings a lot of new things to the game, including Photo Mode. What is it? Well, basically now you can document your triumph over the winter, and show it to your friends.

Frostpunk | A Christmas Carol - Free Update 1.3.2
Hello there, Citizens!
It's the end of December - and in the old days, it meant that Christmas is near. To preserve the tradition - let's celebrate it with a free update!
In the neverending winter of the late 19th century, humanity’s last survivors are desperately trying to build the foundation of a society capable of surviving the endless deep freeze. In the darkest of times, what they truly need is a little bit of hope — a tiny piece of home in a world far away from the home they remember. The holidays draw near, and the survivors come to you, the leader of this frozen hellscape to ask for ‘A Christmas Carol’ to cheer them up.

Frostpunk | Dev Diary - Endless Mode (Free DLC)
Frostpunk's most awaited expansion - Endless Mode - is coming soon to Steam!
As planned, and promised in the development roadmap, the expansion is going to be FREE for all owners of the base game.
In the time since it was announced, Endless Mode is the expansion we have seen the most about of feedback on through the forums, on Twitter, Facebook, and directly by email. In fact, while it was originally teased in the roadmap, the idea took hold with the community since the original launch of Frostpunk in April.
Learn more about DLC's features from our Dev Diary:
https://youtu.be/aln3KJYvwW4
Forged over months at 11 bit studios, it soon goes live and introduces two styles of endless play: “Serenity” for the constructors who enjoy growing the city at their own pace without hard challenges, and “Endurance” for survivalists looking to earn their stripes and see how long they’re able to live in the harsh cold world of Frostpunk.
In both modes, new buildings are introduced to enrich the city’s architecture, including an Archives building that enables players to store lore and information in a single area, new sites can be discovered in the frostland, and new random events that may confront you with previously unknown challenges.
Coming soon to a frozen city near you.
