11 Bit’s next game won’t be like Frostpunk, but it will probably be sad

11 Bit Studios is currently in the midst of a series of updates and expansions for Frostpunk, but the company also has a new game on the way. Tentatively given the not-so-creative title of Project 8, details on the unannounced project are currently scarce, but we heard a few bits of what to expect when speaking to the team at PAX West. Frostpunk spun the management genre into a sort of morality play, but you should expect a different approach from 11 Bit on its next title. “We love that genre,” community manager Rufus Kubica says. “We believe it has a lot of potential. But we are not closing ourselves in this management genre. Our next game is going to be different. The only thing I can tell you about our future project is that the working title is ‘Project 8.’” Frostpunk sales figures reached nearly 300,000 in little over a weekend, and that’s given 11 Bit quite a bit of confidence going forward. “We feel safe about doing future games. This War of Mine was a huge success, but it was a one time hit for a specific game during a specific time. With Frostpunk, we believed and hoped it was going to be the same, and we managed to do that. So we are very happy, and now we are hoping repeat the success with future games.”
