FragPunk, the highly anticipated multiplayer first-person shooter, has officially launched on PC, bringing a fresh twist to the genre. With a current mixed rating of 67% on Steam based on early user feedback, the game has certainly caught the attention of the gaming community. At the heart of FragPunk are the innovative fragment-cards, which revolutionize 5v5 battles by dynamically changing the rules of combat mid-game. This feature ensures that no two matches are ever the same, providing players with a unique experience each time they play. "The cards can be combined, counteract one another, and add a new layer of tactical depth to the classic gameplay," explains the development team at Bad Guitar, showcasing the strategic complexity that these cards introduce.
Players have a choice of 13 unique launchers, each equipped with special abilities, catering to both teamwork-oriented and solo players. This flexibility allows gamers to leverage their individual skills during online matches, making FragPunk a versatile option for various play styles.
In other news, Bad Guitar has announced an unexpected delay for the console versions of FragPunk. Originally set to release on March 6 across all platforms, the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S versions were postponed just two days before the planned launch due to "unforeseen technical issues." While no new release date has been confirmed, the developers are committed to keeping the community informed about future developments. This delay, though disappointing, underscores the studio's dedication to delivering a polished gaming experience across all platforms.
