11 bit Studios’ Frostpunk has just received a new patch, adding a little bit of new content to the game, bug fixes and achievements.
If you are looking for an even more difficult experience in Frost Punk, then try out the new Survivor mode which removes pausing from the game and progress saving (unless you exit the game.) Exact difficult details haven’t been covered as of yet, but players can expect that “meeting the people’s needs or balancing the delicate economy of your city will be even harder.”
New achievements exclusive to Survivor Mode have also been added and support has also been introduced for Nvidia Ansel. The ability to quick save and quick load have also been added.

- Constructed streets now more easily connect to already existing street net
