Frostpunk 2 city-survival game supposedly works on Steam Deck and Linux via Proton with Windows PC. Thanks once again for the creative talents behind developer 11bit studios. All due to making its way onto Steam, GOG, and Humble Store. Just like players have to make tough choices in Frostpunk 2, the developers have made a hard call to delay the game’s release to September 20th. This extra time will help them deliver the best possible experience when it launches this fall. Here’s what Design Director Jakub Stokalski and Art Director Lukasz Juszczyk shared in a Steam post: "Based on the feedback from our Beta, you rated us an average of 8 out of 10. We’re grateful! But it was just a small part of our still-growing game. We took your feedback seriously, noting what worked and what didn’t. This feedback helped us prioritize better and focus on features and changes we were already working on. However, we realized we need more time to finish the title properly. That’s why we decided to postpone the release to September 20th, 2024." Plus we also have more Frostpunk 2 details on how the city-survival is due to evolve:

From what I recall the game is running on Steam Deck, it's not optimized etc.

The 11bit studios team mentioned in an email that there are plans to support Steam Deck and Linux via Proton. They believe it should generally work, but it's still far from being "verified." Right now, they're unsure if the dev team has the time to focus on that build. But it is looking hopeful since the team is using Unreal Engine 5. Now, this new work includes updates to game mechanics, major UI and UX improvements, and also a new city feature called Zoom Stories. You can find more details in their full statement.

Frostpunk 2 is taking city-survival to the next level. In the original release, nature was our enemy, but now it’s human nature. You’ll manage different factions and large city districts, each with endless needs and demands. Survival isn’t the main issue anymore. Instead, you’ll mediate between competing interests to keep your city stable.

Bigger City, Bigger Challenges Your city has grown since the first title. Now, you’re building entire districts, like housing and industrial zones, over months instead of days.

More People, More Problems You’re not dealing with just hundreds of citizens anymore. Now, there are thousands, making it tougher to govern and meet everyone’s needs.

Meet the New Londoners Your Frostpunk 2 citizens can now form communities and factions in the city-survival. Pleasing everyone is impossible. Siding with one group might upset another, so you’ll need to manage alliances carefully.

Laws and Negotiations You no longer have absolute power. The city’s Council Hall is where you’ll debate laws with faction representatives.

Shaping the Future The Research Institute is where you decide your city’s future. Every new project needs to be trusted to a faction, so you’ll have to form strategic alliances.
