Whether you’re playing solo or want to connect with friends, HYPERCHARGE: Unboxed provides the perfect jolt of 90s energy!”
Here is an overview of the game, via Digital Cybercherries:
Inspired by films like Toy Story and Small Soldiers, HYPERCHARGE: Unboxed is the first and third-person shooter many have always dreamed of! Grab friends, complete objectives, defend the Hypercore against waves of weaponized toys, and defeat Major Evil together in the story campaign.
HYPERCHARGE: Unboxed welcomes both parents and children into a vibrant world of toys, empowering adults to relive the joy of their own childhoods and make new unforgettable memories with their children.
HYPERCHARGE: Unboxed features a full story campaign mode, which can be played solo offline or with up to four players online in co-op or local split-screen. The Xbox release will feature cross-platform support for the PC version, so plastic heroes can save the day alongside friends. Plastic generals can also employ bots as AI teammates or opponents.
Toy soldiers that feel more competitive than collaborative can dominate an array of PvP modes for brief bouts of action figure mayhem! Defend the Hypercore with friends, survive waves of relentless hordes of weaponized toys, or relish a good old-fashioned free-for-all rumble!
