Greeting, Citizens!
An all-new scout expedition is ready to leave the safe shelter of New London and step into the unknown. On The Edge - the third expansion for Frostpunk and the last chapter of the game’s Season Pass - is now available on PC!

On The Edge tasks players with building a new community settled away from the city known from the base game, but one still driven by the orders from the capital. One day, when your masters’ favors start to deplete and the demands from the capital remain as firm as at the beginning, it will be time to think about your own survival. Sooner or later, you will have to either act diplomatically or show your strong will since only forming an independent and sturdy union with surrounding Settlements will give you a chance to confront New London.
On The Edge - General Features List:
- Be flexible or stay firm as the leader - Can you trust other communities? Should you respect their ways of survival or bend them to your will?
- Establish an economical union with other outposts using the Transport Depot.
- Help develop other Settlements by fulfilling their requests.
- Construct Safe Routes on the Frostland and exchange surplus resources for those you lack.
- Discover 16 brand new areas of the Frostland and revisit some of the old sites - learning their fate after the Great Storm.
- Construct 3 new city structures and develop 7 new technologies.
- Communicate with other communities thanks to brand new UI in the Administration building.
- Try to survive without control over the Book of Laws.
- Enable new mechanics available in the Endless Mode.
- Listen to 6 new music tracks composed by Piotr Musiał.

“Frostpunk has been a long journey for us and for the players. Years of development and a ton of content released after the premiere, and now the final chapter comes in marking huge growth of the IP on both gameplay and narrative layers. Every expansion introduced new mechanics, twisting and enlarging the game, from the prequel story told in The Last Autumn to the after-storm events presented in the closing scenario - On The Edge.
We’re 11 bit studios - the people who specialize in emotional rollercoasters and that’s Frostpunk. But if you’ve only tried the base game, get the Season Pass for a brand new ride!” says Jakub Stokalski, Project Lead and Lead Game Designer on Frostpunk.
Frostpunk: On The Edge is available right now on PC via Steam, GOG.com, and Humble Store. You can get it here: https://store.steampowered.com/app/1147010/Frostpunk_On_The_Edge/
On The Edge was preceded by The Rifts, which challenged players to build a city on the map containing a group of islands with various resources, and The Last Autumn focused on building an iconic Generator. All expansions are available in Frostpunk: Season Pass.

It's been a long road for Frostpunk. Road covered with snow and ice - demanding but very satisfying at the same time. However, all good things have to come to an end. The story of this particular game may be over - but it's not the last time for you and us to visit this frozen universe of Frostpunk. We have already announced that both a brand-new mobile game and a board game adaptation ( check it out here ) are in the works - and this is definitely not all that we've prepared for Frostpunk's future!
We hope that you've enjoyed this journey as much as we did. Thank you for being the best community - no matter if you consider yourself a Frostland explorer, ruthless captain, or a merciful leader. We do hope that you'll join us for the forthcoming adventures, too. To stay up to date with our plans, be sure to follow us on:
Stay safe and warm, Citizens!
