The board game Frosthaven is getting a video game with the designer of X-COM

The popular board game Frosthaven is getting adapted into a video game, with Snapshot Games at the helm led by CEO Julian Gollop, known for designing X-COM. Hopefully it will do better than the last game they designed, Phoenix Point, which is a bit of a mess.

It serves as a spiritual successor to Gloomhaven. A dark fantasy tactical RPG. Isaac Childres, creator of Frosthaven, will be serving as a consultant on the project.

Features:

  • UNIQUE CHARACTERS – Choose from six starting character classes—including the Banner Spear, Boneshaper, Drifter, Geminate, Blinkblade, and Deathwalker
    • Additional classes will be unlocked as you progress your campaign
    • Each class features its own unique abilities and playstyle to master
  • DEEP, TACTICAL COMBAT – Engage in deep, tactical turn-based combat, testing your skills against an array of new enemies and formidable bosses
    • Utilize an ability card system that requires careful planning to unleash devastating attacks, execute powerful combos, and try keeping your party members alive
  • BUILD YOUR OUTPOST – Manage the Outpost, constructing and upgrading various buildings, unlocking new game features and mechanics
  • A STUNNING WORLD TO EXPLORE – A stunning art style, highly detailed models and textures, and expressive animations all bring the world of FROSTHAVEN to life
    • Be ready to explore diverse biomes, changing seasons, and dynamic environments as your adventure progresses
  • AN EVER-GROWING EXPERIENCE – The Early Access release launches with 35+ quests across Acts 1 and 2, with over 130 total quests planned for the campaign as development continues
