11 bit studios announce two new Frostpunk books and a merch store. The Frostpunk IP expands into literature with two exclusive books.
11 bit studios present two handcrafted collector’s books that expand the Frostpunk universe and will be released on Kickstarter later this year.
The first is a series of novellas set in the apocalyptic world of Frostpunk, and the second is a uniquely designed artbook that is a must-have for Frostpunk fans. In addition, 11 bit studios are opening their Merch Shop.
Curated by the famous Polish science fiction writer and futurologist Jacek Dukaj, “Tales from the Frostland” features works by Jakub Nowak, Robert M. Wegner, Janusz Cyran and Anna Kańtoch.
Also coming to Kickstarter, the artbook “Aesthetics of Desolation: Design and Art of Frostpunk” has been carefully curated by the game directors of Frostpunk. It contains never-before-seen artwork and never-before-told insights into the design process that guided the creation of the world of Frostpunk and Frostpunk 2.
“Working on Frostpunk has always involved two main aspects: creating a believable world and developing an engaging game in that world.”
“It featured fresh and bold art direction, but stayed true to the story and gameplay. It developed a non-linear story focused on gameplay, conveyed through the unique language of video games that is still being explored. It was an exciting creative journey, but also challenging work on a complex project in a volatile industry. This book reflects that experience.”
“It tells the story of art and design, inextricably linked yet distinct from each other; where design and art influence each other to create a truly unique experience. It describes the creative journey amidst the daily challenges of practice. Ultimately, it is a story about world-building,” says Jakub Stokalski, Game Director and Design Director of Frostpunk 2.
“Tales from the Frostland” and “Aesthetics of Desolation: Design and Art of Frostpunk” will be released on Kickstarter this fall, with the current goal of shipping the books in the second half of 2025. Both books will be available in English only, with pricing to be announced at a later date.
As for the 11 bit studios merch store, the first selection of limited edition Frostpunk and Publishing Division clothing is available now. Over time, more clothing, vinyl records, pins and various other gadgets will be added, all with one goal in mind: quality over quantity with a curated selection of unique, must-have products.
