The time has come! The biggest and most complex scenario for Frostpunk yet – The Last Autumn – debuts today on PC! As you probably know, the expansion is a part of Frostpunk Season Pass that was released in August but can be also bought separately.
What is this expansion about?
The Last Autumn tells a prequel story. Experience the events that ended with the cataclysm and lead the construction of the iconic Generator. Not everyone will be happy with the work conditions and some of your people – albeit they shouldn’t know it – could pay the ultimate price when striving to give humankind their last hope. It’s up to you to weigh the stakes and decide how much sacrifices the greater good is worth.
Watch The Last Autumn release trailer here:
“Everyone associate Frostpunk with snow and winter, so our goal was to provide them with something totally new and change the tone of the game a bit. It was a challenge, but the result is the biggest and the most tone-nuanced scenario in the whole Frostpunk universe”
– says Kuba Stokalski, Frostpunk Lead Designer.
