We've been waiting a long time for Frostpunk 2 to jump from PC Game Pass to Xbox Game Pass, but it sounds like the wait is finally almost over, with 11 Bit Studios announcing a new release window as part of an updated roadmap.

As of today (April 24th), Frostpunk 2's Xbox release date is now set for Summer 2025. At that point, the society survival game will finally make its console debut almost a year since the PC release back in September of 2024.

But that's not all! 11 Bit Studios is also announcing today that Frostpunk 1886 will release in 2027, which is a reimagined version of the original Frostpunk game, built in Unreal Engine. Here's a bit more about what to expect:

"With the studio’s proprietary Liquid Engine, which powered not only the original Frostpunk but also This War of Mine, no longer in development, the team has long sought a new foundation to carry forward the legacy of the first game.

But Frostpunk 1886—so titled to honour a pivotal moment in the timeline of the universe, when the Great Storm descended upon New London—is no mere visual overhaul. It builds upon the core of the original, expanding it with new content, mechanics, laws, and—perhaps most excitingly—an entirely new Purpose path, offering a fresh experience even for the most seasoned players."

Lots to look forward to for Frostpunk fans, then! We'll obviously let you know when the Frostpunk 2 launch date gets nailed down, and in the meantime, let us know if you've been enjoying Frostpunk 2 on PC Game Pass in the comments.
