11 Bit Studios Targets 2027 for Next Frostpunk Project and 2029 for New IP

11 Bit Studio is creating a new project within the Frostpunk universe, scheduled to debut in 2027. The studio also has an independent IP undergoing development, slated for a 2029 launch. The news was revealed in the studios’ financial report – further confirmed by EuroGamer’s exclusive interview with 11 Bit Studio CEO Przemysław Marszał. 

Despite receiving mixed reviews on Steam, thereby indicating a controversial game launch, 11 Bit Studio fully intends on focusing their efforts on Frostpunk 2. “We totally believe in Frostpunk. We believe in that IP. We totally believe in that fantasy,” Marszał told EuroGamer. 

“On the Frostpunk 2 front, we are doing a lot of work right now. The patch is coming, the DLCs are coming, etc. We see the problems with the game, we know the strengths of the game, and we are working on that game. But that’s not only it. Frostpunk is definitely one of our key IPs, key games, and we love the IP so, yeah, we will work on that more.”

11 Bit Studio’s financial report revealed the admittedly small details for the new IP in development. “In parallel, we have commenced development on a larger-scale title, targeted for release in 2029,” the report reads – no other details are readily available regarding the new IP as of April 16. 

Frostpunk 2 released on September 20, 2024 on PC, with a console release planned for Summer of 2025. Frostpunk 2 is a survival game set 30 years after the apocalyptic blizzard of the original Frostpunk; the title reportedly sold over 500,000 copies,
