The trailer gives fans a glimpse at the game’s UI, which looks to include a compass, item belt, and what seem like health, hunger, and warmth bars in the lower left corner.

The areas outside the burrow are where players will need to explore in order to gather resources like wood, rocks, and other materials. However, players will need to contend with both the freezing cold weather and creepy critters like beetles and bugs that will need to be dealt with through what seems like a simple, light combat system. Not all the creatures outside the burrow are hostile though, as the trailer showed some of the friendly NPC animals players can meet, like a bear and a frog, who may be of help with useful survival tips. It seems likeWinter Burrow’s gameplay loopwill involve going out to explore and gather resources before heading back to the burrow to rest up and prepare for the next outing.
Winter Burrow’s new trailer didn’t divulge a specific release date; it’s sticking with its initial 2025 window. Considering the game’s cozy winter setting, it would be a perfect game for January or February. Nevertheless, Steam users can wishlist the game and can also try out the game’s demo, while Xbox users will have to wait for the game’s full launch, which will be part ofXbox Game Pass on day one.
