What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“The Quiet Cold is playable today, featuring co-op survival, crafting, building, giants, Hollowkin, and beacon progression.

We're launching in Early Access to improve balance, stability, and long-term gameplay using real player feedback. Community input will help shape future updates and development priorities.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“We currently expect The Quiet Cold to remain in Early Access for approximately 12–18 months, though timelines may change as development progresses.

Our goal is to continue improving content, balance, stability, and overall quality with community feedback.”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“We plan to expand The Quiet Cold with additional content, progression systems, world variety, cooperative features, and gameplay improvements.

We also intend to continue refining balance, usability, onboarding, accessibility, and overall player experience throughout Early Access.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The current Early Access build contains the core gameplay experience, including:

Survival systems (cold, hunger, warmth, stamina)
Gathering, crafting, and building
Beacon progression
Giants and Hollowkin
Multiple biomes and weather systems
Co-op multiplayer
Steam Cloud support

Players should expect ongoing updates, balance adjustments, bug fixes, and visual improvements during development.”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“We currently plan to keep the price stable through most of Early Access.
As the game grows and additional content is added, the price may increase over time. Any future changes will be communicated in advance.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“Community feedback plays an important role in development.

Steam Discussions will be our primary place for feedback, bug reports, and suggestions. We will use player feedback to help prioritise improvements, balancing, and future updates throughout Early Access.”

About This Game

Fire is life. Warmth is a risk.

The Quiet Cold is a co-op voxel survival game set in an endless frozen wilderness. Keep your fire burning, build shelter against the cold, and work together to reach the beacon while the frost, and what it leaves behind, hunts the living.

Survive together

  • 2–4 player online co-op via Steam

  • Gather resources, craft tools, build shelter, and maintain your camp

  • Manage warmth, hunger, and environmental hazards

  • Enter a downed state instead of dying instantly, allies can revive you before the cold claims you

  • Explore a world filled with structures, secrets, and dangers

  • Complete a journey from the prison camp to the beacon

The cold never stops

  • Explore an endless voxel world across multiple biomes

  • Dynamic weather, fog, wind, and environmental threats

  • Fires provide safety, visibility, and warmth, but may attract unwanted attention

  • Giants react to heat and activity, turning survival decisions into risks

  • Atmospheric survival without intrusive countdown timers

Early Access
