Frostrail, a haunting new post-apocalyptic survival FPS, has officially crossed a major milestone: 200,000 wishlists on Steam. The news was confirmed by publisher Shiro Unlimited, who celebrated the occasion with a chilling teaser trailer that has fans more excited than ever.
Developed by FakeFish, the studio behind cult survival hit Barotrauma, Frostrail combines elements of first-person shooting, survival horror, and open-world exploration—set against the frozen ruins of a fallen empire.
❄️ A Journey Into a Frozen Nightmare
Set in a once-mighty realm now consumed by cold and darkness, Frostrail puts players in the role of Penitent Gardeners, mysterious warriors traveling aboard a heavily fortified armored train. Their mission: to purge the land of the cursed, battling nightmarish creatures born from a forbidden pact with the Void.
Players will need to brave not only hostile monsters but also the environment itself. The teaser reveals:
-
🌨️ Beautiful yet hostile snowy landscapes
-
👹 Spectral horrors and clawed monsters
-
🔥 A freezing mechanic that requires players to seek out heat sources
-
🛠️ Crafting and train upgrades for survival on the rails
-
🏚️ Lootable interiors of abandoned buildings, filled with essential materials
🚂 The Armored Train: Your Lifeline
Unlike most open-world games, Frostrail introduces a train-based survival loop. The armored train serves as both transport and shelter, allowing players to move between zones while upgrading their mobile base. Crafting stations, defensive systems, and survival tools can be installed or upgraded as you progress.
