Toplitz Productions is preparing Permafrost for early access on October 9, 2026, and has moved Vikings Dynasty into an open playtest that started September 16, 2026. The company also has Prospera scheduled for the second quarter of 2027.
Toplitz Productions showed two games in live demos at gamescom 2026 in Cologne, then moved them onto separate release tracks. Vikings Dynasty, a life simulation set in 10th-century Scandinavia, opened its open playtest on September 16, 2026, after the gamescom demo. It runs on Unreal Engine 5 and plans Japanese interface and subtitle support. The game has players build a village, hunt, fish, and raid by boat, with longship raids set for a later update. Prospera, a construction simulation developed by Active Fungus Studios, is a separate project. Players cut forests, build sawmills and railroads, and turn wild land into a late-19th-century industrial city. It targets a PC release in the second quarter of 2027.
Permafrost is the closest to release. Toplitz Productions put out its early access launch trailer on October 5, 2026, four days before the game enters early access on October 9, 2026. SpaceRocket Games developed it for PC via Steam, Epic Games Store, and GOG.com. Up to four players cooperate in an open world where the entire Earth has frozen over after the moon's collapse. Players control Luke, an engineer skilled at rebuilding, and must maintain body temperature in extreme cold, gather resources, and repair abandoned shelters. Combat involves dangerous wild animals and hostile survivors, and the game includes no constant gunfights or fantasy elements. The trailer shows exploration of snow-covered cities, trading with NPCs, and base building with companions. A separate story trailer introducing the world setting was also released, and Japanese language support is included.
