Alive, Hostile And Unpredictable: New Permafrost Video Reveals A World Where Nature Wants You Dead
Brave the frozen apocalypse across a world of extreme weather and diverse environments
Oberhaching, Germany March 19, 2026 – Grab your gear and don’t forget your chemical heaters, as you step into the frozen wasteland of Permafrost, the upcoming story-based survival sandbox from development studio SpaceRocket Games and publisher Toplitz Productions. Once you enter this desolate open world, buried under ice and snow after a cataclysmic event that culminated in the shattering of the moon, you'll discover that nature itself is trying to end your life.
The newly released video highlights the game’s dynamic weather systems and richly varied biomes. From the eerie beauty of dense forests with trees thickly covered in snow to the raw fury of blinding storms on the white tundra and the skeletal remains of civilization in the form of a destroyed metropolis, the stunning world offers a wide range of beautiful, yet dangerous environments.
Weather is more than just a backdrop and plays an important role in Permafrost as a constant threat that will punish you if you decide to ignore it. It's a dynamic, ever-shifting force that you must read and respect, whether you take on the challenge alone or together with up to four survivors in co-operative multiplayer. For example, you need to read the subtle warning signs that an unforgiving blizzard is rolling in and use the time to find or build a shelter. Survival depends on understanding your environment as much as optimizing your gear.
Permafrost launches in Early Access on PC later this year. More information can be found on the official Steam product page, where the game can already be wishlisted or you can join the Toplitz Productions Discord to stay updated.
