11-bit studios announced that "Ice Age 2" will be launched on the console platform on September 18, and two different physical versions will be launched at that time, and the Game Pass subscription service on the Xbox console will be added on the day of its first release.

The game has now been added to the PC Game Pass, and the console will be added to the library on the day of release.As for the physical version, it will be divided into two types: one is the "Icebreaker Edition", which includes the game's main body, digital novella, digital art settings, and the three-dimensional scene model of "New London" in the game; the more expensive "Whiteout Edition" includes all the content of the "Icebreaker Edition", and also includes access to the three upcoming DLCs of "Icebreaker Era 2", as well as more physical peripherals - keychains, New London postcards, stickers and faction badges.

In a press release, Igor Skibinski, production coordinator for 11-bit studios, said the console version of this post-apocalyptic strategy game is designed to achieve a smooth control experience.After the host version is released, the PC version will usher in an update, and a new host version UI interface that supports controller control is added.

"Our goal is to prove again that even complex strategy games can provide an intuitive and satisfying experience on the console," Skibinsky said.

When "Ice Age 2" was launched on the console platform (its PC version was first released in September 2024), it will be side by side with the console version of the first generation "Ice Age", which can also be played through Game Pass.This series of city construction games with survival as the core revolves around "hard choices in the endless cold winter to ensure the survival of civilization" - players not only need to manage survival necessities such as food and calories, but also need to deal with social unrest.

11-bit studios announced earlier this year that it will remake the first generation of Ice Age using Unreal Engine 5 and named "Ice Age 1886", which originated from a key year in the game's worldview.This remake is not only a picture upgrade, but also new content, mechanisms and regulations will be added, and official modules are supported - this cannot be achieved in the first generation of games due to engine restrictions.

As for "Ice Age 2", 11-bit studios have made it clear that they will continue to launch new updates and content for it, and the development of "Ice Age 2" and "Ice Age 1886" will be "advanced in parallel".According to the development roadmap of "Ice Age 2", the game will usher in multiple free large-scale content updates and paid DLCs, several of which will be launched in 2025, and more content is planned to be launched in 2026.
