So I would say that the overall themes of the game are not going to be all beds of roses. And again, what will happen next, this is the big question. "And Frostpunk 2, in this sense, is actually a post-apocalyptic game, in a way. And in this sense it was doom and gloom and everything worse and worse all around.
"But I would say that it's interesting, because internally with Łukasz Juszczyk, my co-director and co-partner in crime, we often talk about Frostpunk was really an apocalyptic game, right? It took place in the time that basically everything was going to shit. "If you know our last two games, hope is not very high on our themes list," Stokalski said, laughing. I asked about the planet itself, and if it's still getting colder or if the climate is recovering and steering toward a warmer and potentially more hopeful future. And not only you, but society as a whole." "I would say Frostpunk 2 is going to be about what happens when you actually survive the unsurvivable. While this is a great announcement for those who enjoyed the first game, fans naturally won’t be satisfied until they can experience Frostpunk 2 for themselves."The question really becomes, what's next?" said Stokalski. What we aim to deliver to players is an experience that goes vastly beyond that of the original Frostpunk,” says Stokalski. “ Our ambition is to do more than a straight-up sequel. More of the same would likely be enough to satisfy fans, but just based on the first Frostpunk 2 press release, it seems players will have much more to look forward to than that. Meanwhile, Preestablished fans have a sequel to look forward to that is looking quite promising.
