FragPunk, the eagerly awaited multiplayer first-person shooter, has now made its debut on PC. Launched amidst much anticipation, the game has garnered a mixed rating on Steam, currently sitting at 67% from early user reviews. This new title from Bad Guitar is setting the stage for a fresh take on the genre.
At the heart of FragPunk's gameplay are the unique fragment-cards. These cards introduce a dynamic element to the 5v5 battles, changing the rules of engagement on the fly and ensuring 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 have stated. This feature not only keeps the gameplay fresh but also challenges players to think strategically in the midst of intense combat.
Players have the choice of 13 distinct launchers, each boasting special abilities. Whether you're a fan of teamwork or prefer to go solo, FragPunk offers flexibility to cater to your preferred playstyle. The game allows you to showcase your individual skills during online matches, making every session a test of your prowess and adaptability.
However, fans looking forward to the console versions of FragPunk will have to wait a bit longer. Bad Guitar has announced a delay for the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S releases, which were originally set for March 6. Just two days before the planned launch, the studio cited "unforeseen technical issues" as the reason for the postponement. While a new release date remains unspecified, Bad Guitar has committed to keeping the community informed about future developments.
