About Wild Ice

The Great Frost changed everything.

Every day it gets colder. Those who freeze return as frost zombies drawn to the last pockets of warmth. In the small town of Coldwater, a scattered network of experimental furnaces built to warm people through the worst winters is now the last hope of surviving. But turning them on calls to the frost and what lurks within.

Play solo or couch co-op as small town hockey players Max and Finley, as you activate furnaces across the world and hold the line against waves of frost zombies using a combination of slap shots, trap building and fisticuffs to both bring (and bring back) the heat!

EXPLORE A FROZEN OPEN WORLD

Travel across a frozen landscape in search of furnaces. Discover new areas, stay warm, find items, character mods, new gear, hidden crows (caw caw) and take on optional side quests from other survivors.

HOCKEY FUELED ACTION TOWER DEFENSE

Build and upgrade hockey-inspired traps, fortify choke points, and funnel enemies as you protect the heat, and survive escalating waves of frost zombies. There will be no sitting on the bench once the horde is unleashed, you're as much a part of the play as your traps. Use slapshots, slashing and body checks to take down any frost zombies that slip past your defenses.

SURVIVE TOGETHER - PLAY SOLO OR SPLITSCREEN CO-OP

Play solo and choose between two characters, Max (the scavenger) and Finley (the tank) with different perks and play styles, or play together for double the chaos, double the fun!
