In Frostpunk 2, one of the most valuable and powerful resources you can find is Cores. These are essential for constructing critical infrastructure in New London and beyond. You’ll need to gather as many Cores as possible. This guide will help you discover how to acquire all the Cores in Frostpunk 2.
Where to Find All Cores in Frostpunk 2
Cores are crucial for progressing in Frostpunk 2, as they are necessary to fully upgrade the generator in New London. Additionally, they are required for constructing some of the game’s advanced machinery, so collecting as many Cores as you can is beneficial.
To find Cores, you must have access to the surrounding Frostlands through at least one Logistics District, which can be established atop New London’s Old Waystations. There are three of these districts surrounding the city, and developing them will provide you with numerous Frostlander teams to assist in gathering resources.
Cores can be located in specific regions throughout the Frostlands. First, you need your Frostlander teams to scout these regions to reveal the presence and quantity of available Cores. Once you identify where they are, you’ll require multiple teams to transport the Cores back to New London. After their arrival, the Cores will be available for your use. You can monitor your available Cores at any time by checking the top of your HUD screen, located to the right of your Prefab counter.
Below, we’ve included a visual slideshow highlighting each area that contains salvageable Cores. To preview the regions with hidden Cores, click on a particular area to view its description. If the blue Core icon appears in ‘Possible Findings’, it indicates there are Cores available in that location. Additionally, once a region is fully scouted, it often receives a new designation; we’ve made sure to include those in parentheses below.
