Greetings, brave survivor and master of the frozen wilderness!

A chilled challenge awaits you! Permafrost is taking part in Steam NEXT Fest and bringing the cold right into your room. Are you ready to face the merciless eternal winter? Build, hunt, and survive in a world trapped in a sub-zero apocalpse. Every breath freezes, every decision can lead to your downfall. Every little detail counts here - from your choice of equipment to your plan to save yourself from freezing to death.

The arctic-like climate has no mercy for the hesitant and the faint-hearted! Prepare yourself well, because this demo will demand a lot from you. Test your limits and see if you have what it takes to survive.

Put on your thickest woollen socks, pack your hottest drinks and prepare for the challenge of your life, survivor! We await you in the unforgiving realm of Permafrost - at the Steam NEXT Fest!

Greetings, survivor!

Be on your guard in the post-apocalyptic world of Permafrost, ruled by an endless winter. After a devastating catastrophe, the earth has become a wasteland of ice, snow and the pitiful remains of human civilisation.

Resources are scarce, the cold is merciless and there are many dangers outside that spell death. You must find food, fuel and other survival necessities and make tough decisions if you want to thrive in this unforgiving icy wasteland.

We have a new trailer ready for Gamescom 2024! Watch it for yourself!

So long!

Hunter’s Glade awaits those who are lost, but still striving to survive.


Greetings, frost walkers!

A world frozen to the bone is the substance of the Permafrost experience. You will encounter horrible weather conditions, dangerous animals or cultists and will try to hide in ice-bound buildings. It is important that in those moments of struggle you will also be able to feel the beauty of this fractured, but magnificent environment.

To do so, we are working on visual and shader improvements on rime. See before and after results for yourself!

The Urban District will be full of red brick buildings, covered in frost.

The echoes of life that once lingered in House Camp Church still radiate through its walls.

An immersive world consists of not only landscape and objects, but also movement and life. That’s why, we are working currently on snow drifts which will dynamize our frigid environment.

The ruins of the city stand tall, yet only few know if there is any life left.

Hello there, chilled survivors!

The world of Permafrost is frigid, in some places even downright extreme. We're not going to talk about thermodynamics and entropy now, that would be too much of a stretch. Just know that you could freeze to death very quickly if you don't protect yourself properly.

That's why we're introducing you to a few things from Permafrost that can improve your survival!

Brazier
A small structure from scrap where you can throw all kinds of things to act as fuel. Warm up here before venturing into cold zones.

Military Backpack
A large-sized backpack belonged to the military forces before they went south. In dangerous times, the more you can carry, the longer you can survive.

Bolt-action Rifle
Warmth requires energy. Food provides this energy. Hunting is vital in an extreme environment, so you need a tool for hunting. It also protects you from things out there in the cold. The largest bullet calibre means the greatest firepower. However, it has one drawback: it only allows a single shot, requiring you to reload the chamber to shoot again. Make sure you aim well.

Improvised Tent
Crafted from gifts of nature and remains left by people, you can create a small but sufficient resting place to regenerate and wait out the snowfall.

Scrap Axe
You can make all kinds of tools from scraps of crumbled civilization. These tools are useful for chopping trees and destroying furniture for resources.
