In Frostpunk 2, you will have to take close note of technological advancements and the management of resources in your city.

Players can expect a highly immersive experience, as indicated by the trailers and other promotional materials. The developer has utilized the mind-blowing capabilities of Unreal Engine 5 to design a harrowing landscape.
