The premise, in the publisher's words
Restore your broken-down childhood burrow to a place you can again call home and relax in front of the fireplace. Play as a mouse who has returned from life in the big city only to find that your childhood home is in ruin. And your Aunt, who was supposed to be looking after it, has gone missing.

Winter Burrow holds a critic score of 70 out of 100. That places it above 33% of the 7,525 rated adventure games in our database, which average 72. Games released in 2025 averaged 78, so it scored 8 points below the year average.
What you need to run it
The minimum specification calls for Dual Core 2.4 GHz, 8 GB RAM and GeForce GTX 950, Radeon R7 360, or Intel HD Graphics 630. An 8GB memory requirement is modest by current standards; most machines sold in the last five years clear it. Install size is roughly 10GB. Both tiers are compared side by side on the requirements page, and you can check your own parts against them without installing anything.
What it launched against
Winter Burrow launched on 12 November 2025, within three weeks of ARC Raiders, The Outer Worlds 2, Dispatch and Kirby Air Riders. All of them reviewed better. It arrived 5 years into the Xbox Series's life, so it was built for hardware developers already knew well.
Released around the same time: ARC Raiders, The Outer Worlds 2, Dispatch, Kirby Air Riders.
