The Quiet Cold

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
