The Long Dark 2: Blackfrost Brings Co-op and Urban Survival in 2026
Hinterland has officially announced Blackfrost: The Long Dark 2, a sequel to its snowy survival game, set to enter early access on Steam in 2026. The game expands on its predecessor by introducing urban environments alongside the wilderness, and features both solo and co-op gameplay. Players can customize their survivors, face new challenges like aurora storms and radioactive Blackfrost, and choose between Permadeath and a new Permalife mode. The game will be developed iteratively with community feedback, though some fans may be wary due to delays in completing the original game's story mode.
