You can’t change the difficulty once you start a playthrough in Frostpunk 2. The difficulty setting you choose heavily affects the flow of the game and every move you make, especially when it comes to planning and dealing with problems in the city. This is why difficulty isn’t something you can change on the go.

New London can’t survive without Oil, and one of the first objectives in Frostpunk 2‘s story mode is transferring Oil from the colony to the city.

How to increase Workforce in Frostpunk 2https://dotesports.com/frostpunk/news/how-to-increase-workforce-in-frostpunk-2https://dotesports.com/frostpunk/news/how-to-increase-workforce-in-frostpunk-2#respondFri, 20 Sep 2024 15:10:42 +0000https://dotesports.com/?p=1346559Workers of the Frostlands, unite!]]>

In Frostpunk 2, a settlement’s Workforce is the share of its overall population who can work in districts and buildings or as Frostbreakers. It’s important to understand how to increase and redistribute your Workforce, as well as how to decrease absences so that your Workforce can actually work.

Before you can Frostbreak or build any new district or building in Frostpunk 2, you need to have enough Workforce to complete the task or to staff the district or building. Frostbreakers return to your Workforce pool when their job is complete, but districts and buildings need Workforce to be permanently assigned to them to produce resources and other benefits.
