11 Bit Studios is giving an outlook on the system requirements for Frostpunk 2 for the first time. However, these are not yet final and apply to the beta. But you shouldn't expect extreme deviations anymore, since the game is very far in development. There will certainly be some optimization work until the release on July 25, 2024, but the sails are safely set. To participate in the beta, you must pre-order the not inexpensive Deluxe Edition.

As one of the first titles to be created as part of the exclusive technology partnership with AMD, which was only announced in November last year, Frostpunk 2 will incorporate corresponding optimizations for Ryzen and Radeon. In addition, FSR 3 with frame generation will be implemented and supported at launch.
This is Frostpunk 2
The second part of the strategy game is again about running and managing a metropolis with few resources. As the leader of one, it is the player's job to look for new sources of energy. With oil, a new form of energy production will be established and thus replace coal production, while “the pluralistic society” in particular should clearly represent the epicenter, according to the development team. As 11 Bit Studios announced in its latest trailer, Frostpunk 2 can now be pre-ordered via Steam, GOG and the Epic Games Store and will also be available via Xbox Game Pass upon release.
