Builder and Frostpunk have had a special love affair for years. Now developer 11 Bit Studios would like to thank the owners of Frostpunk 2 once again. Because the fans made a decisive contribution to the new patch 1.1.0.

The update is available on Steam, Epic Games Store and GOG.com and downloads automatically. The highlights look like this:

  • Major optimization work for higher performance
  • Contracts for building buildings and breaking ice can be canceled.
  • Breaking the ice is no longer limited.
  • The district outlines are now better differentiated in terms of color and structure.
  • In the prologue, the nomads are more visible and ice is no longer broken up using machines.
  • There is an option to disable auto-saves or adjust their frequency.
  • Camera responds faster to inputs.
  • Moving the camera section using the mouse pointer directed to the edge of the screen can be switched on and off.
