11 bit studios Announces Two New Frostpunk Books Along With Merch Store Unveiling
11 bit studios is pleased to unveil two handcrafted collector books that expand the Frostpunk universe and are coming to Kickstarter later this year. The first is a series of novellas set in Frostpunk's apocalyptic world, and the second is a uniquely crafted artbook that is a must-have for Frostpunk fans.
In addition, 11 bit studios is launching their merch store today and you can check it out here.
Curated by famous Polish sci-fi author and futurologist Jacek Dukaj, “Tales from the Frostland” features works by Jakub Nowak, Robert M. Wegner, Janusz Cyran, and Anna Kantoch. The artbook "Aesthetics of Desolation: Design and Art of Frostpunk", will also feature in the same Kickstarter and is carefully curated by Frostpunk’s game directors. It features never-seen-before art, and never-before-told insights about the design process that guided the creation of world in Frostpunk and Frostpunk 2.

“Working on Frostpunk always entailed two main aspects: crafting its believable world and creating an engaging game in it. It boasted a fresh and bold art direction, yet remained faithful to the story and gameplay. It wove a narrative that was non-linear and focused on gameplay, conveyed through the unique language of video games that is still being explored. It was an exhilarating creative journey but also the challenging labor of a complex project in a volatile industry. This book mirrors that experience. It tells the story of art and design, inseparable yet distinct; where design and art each feed into each other to create a truly unique experience. It chronicles the creative journey amid the daily grind of practical challenges. Ultimately, it's a tale of world-building” - said Jakub Stokalski, Frostpunk 2 Game Director and Design Director.
Tales from the Frostland and Aesthetics of Desolation: Design and Art of Frostpunk will come to Kickstarter this fall, with the current goal to ship the books in the second half of 2025. Both books will be available in English only, with pricing to be announced at a later date.
As for the 11 bit studios merch store, the initial selection of limited edition Frostpunk and publishing division games apparel is now available. Over time, more apparel, vinyl records, pins, and various other gadgets will be added, all with a singular aim: to prioritize quality over quantity with a curated selection of unique, must-have products.
