FragPunk, the latest multiplayer first-person shooter, has officially hit the PC gaming scene. Launched to a mixed reception, it currently boasts a 67% rating on Steam, reflecting the early feedback from its user base. In this adrenaline-pumping title, players dive into 5v5 battles that stand out due to the innovative use of fragment-cards. These cards dynamically change the rules of engagement during gameplay, ensuring that no two matches are ever the same. "The cards can be combined, counteract one another, and add a new layer of tactical depth to the classic gameplay," the developers at Bad Guitar explain, highlighting the strategic element that sets FragPunk apart.
Gamers have a selection of 13 unique launchers at their disposal, each with special abilities that cater to different playstyles. Whether you thrive in teamwork or prefer to go solo, FragPunk offers flexibility, allowing players to showcase their individual skills in online matches.
However, fans eagerly awaiting the console release of FragPunk have encountered a setback. Bad Guitar, the studio behind the game, announced a delay for the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S versions just two days before the originally planned launch on March 6. Citing "unforeseen technical issues," the developers have not yet provided a new release date but have committed to keeping the community informed as they work towards resolving these challenges.
