[/h3][p]Have you ever wondered what it would be like to experience Frostpunk 2 in real life?
[/p][p]This February 12–15, 2026, our friends at Larp Venture will take over a historical fort in Poland to host an official live L.A.R.P. experience created in partnership with us.
[/p][p]The Last Recon puts you in one of Frostpunk’s remote outposts. Food is scarce, the cold is merciless, and tensions rise as survival becomes uncertain. You’ll negotiate, lead, build, and sacrifice because not everyone can be saved. The city depends on you.

[p]Hello Citizens!
[/p][p]As promised, we’re back with the second part of our Community Update. Thank you so much for all the kind words and congratulations on our last post, we truly appreciate it. It’s thanks to your support and feedback that we can keep improving our games, and we’re grateful to have you with us on this journey.
[/p][p]This week was a special one, packed with anniversary celebrations and highlights we couldn’t wait to share with you. Let’s dive into the frost![/p][p][/p][hr][/hr][p][/p][h3]Your Choices in Numbers[/h3][p]We asked: If you could peek at other players’ decisions, which ones would you want to see?[/p][p]Well, we gathered your answers (and added a few of our own), then pulled data from over one million playthroughs across the year. It wasn’t easy, but the results are here! (Heads up: some stats may contain spoilers!)
[/p][carousel][/carousel][p]
Disclaimer: As you know in some moments in the game there were more than 2 choices, so % won't be always over 50![/p][p][/p][hr][/hr][h3][/h3][h3]The Road So Far + Words from the Directors[/h3][p]To celebrate the anniversary, we released a brand-new trailer, “The Road So Far”, which looks back on everything that’s happened throughout the past year. You can watch it now on our YouTube channel:
[/p][previewyoutube][/previewyoutube][p]
On top of that, our Game Directors, Kuba Stokalski and Łukasz Juszczyk, recorded a special video message for the community. It wouldn’t be a true celebration without them!
[/p][hr][/hr][p][/p][h3]Your Own Generator at Home[/h3][p]Some of you asked for an extra way to bring the Frostpunk atmosphere into your daily life. We’ve got you covered and created a special Generator Ambience track that mimics the sounds of generator from the game. Play it in the background and turn your home into your own New London.
[/p][previewyoutube][/previewyoutube][p]
[/p][hr][/hr][p][/p][h3]Frostpunk Artbook & Anthology – Pledge Manager Launch[/h3][p]We know you’ve been waiting for this (thank you for your patience). The Pledge Manager for the Frostpunk Artbook & Anthology is now live![/p][p]On the dedicated website, you can: add new items, manage your orders, and update your contact info.

And if you missed the Kickstarter campaign, this is your chance to grab a copy!

We are very dedicated to this project and we’re carefully reviewing every item to make sure the final products will be something you’ll be proud to showcase on your bookshelf.

Yes, we know what’s on everyone’s mind, the DLC. We’re working hard on it, and while we can’t share details just yet, it is coming this year. We need to ask you for a little more patience and more details will come soon. :)
