Dark fantasy tactical RPG Frosthaven will leave Early Access and launch for PC via Steam and Epic Games Store on October 15, publisher Arc Games and developer Snapshot Games announced.
Frosthaven first launched in Early Access on July 31, 2025.
“I am beyond happy with the final result of all of Snapshot’s hard work,” said Cephalofair Games CEO and Frosthaven creator Isaac Childres in a press release. “It has been a joy to play Frosthaven as a video game experience, and I think Snapshot has really done right by all players—keeping the gameplay in line with the original board game, while also improving onboarding and [user experience] for new and old players alike.”
Snapshot Games CEO Julian Gollop added, “Frosthaven is an incredibly ambitious project. There are such deep and intricate systems, plus a dedicated and knowledgeable fanbase to live up to. Staying true to the tabletop version and collaborating with the brilliant Isaac Childres and Cephalofair Games has been rewarding, and we’re proud of what the team has accomplished.”
Frosthaven game director Hristo Petkov said, “Our players have been crucial in shaping Frosthaven. Throughout Early Access, we’ve listened closely to feedback and improved many aspects, including onboarding, user experience, systems, and overall polish. Our full launch in October is a reflection of that collaboration, and we’re excited for players to see how far we’ve come.”
