FragPunk, the eagerly awaited multiplayer first-person shooter, has officially launched on PC, garnering a mixed reception with a 67% rating on Steam based on early user feedback. This game plunges players into adrenaline-pumping 5v5 battles, with a unique twist that sets it apart from other shooters: the use of fragment-cards. These cards revolutionize gameplay by dynamically changing the rules of combat mid-match, ensuring that no two games feel 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 these cards bring to the table.
Players have the freedom to choose from 13 distinct launchers, each boasting special abilities that cater to different playstyles. Whether you thrive on teamwork or prefer to showcase your individual prowess, FragPunk accommodates both, allowing players to leverage their skills in online matches.
In other news, Bad Guitar, the creative force behind FragPunk, has announced a delay for the console versions of the game. Originally set to launch on March 6 across all platforms, the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S releases were unexpectedly postponed just two days before the planned launch due to "unforeseen technical issues." While a new release date remains unconfirmed, the developers have committed to keeping the community informed about future developments.
