Console versions dated after last minute delay.
The PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series versions of free-to-play five-versus-five first-person hero shooter FragPunk will launch on April 29, developer Bad Guitar Studio announced.
FragPunk first launched for PC via Steam on March 6. While the console versions were originally planned to launch on the same date, they were delayed at the last minute for further optimization.
Here are the latest details:
After its launch on PC in March, FragPunk has quickly captivated players with its groundbreaking Shard Card System, intriguing strategic gameplay and dazzling art style, achieving a peak of over 110,000 concurrent players on Steam. Now, the game is ready to bring its signature blend of strategy and mayhem to console gamers. The upcoming release has been meticulously optimized for smooth controller gameplay, featuring enhanced visuals and a cross-progression system, ensuring an unparalleled gaming experience.
To make up for the delayed console launch, FragPunk is offering substantial rewards for console players. This includes rewards gained through exclusive time-limited events from the start of Season 1 until April 29th, when the console version goes live. Players who purchased the Pioneer Bundle on console platforms will be eligible to claim additional gifts after the console launch.
Console Launch Key Features
- Cross-Play and Cross Progression – The console version will feature both cross-play and cross-progression with the PC version, enabling players to enjoy FragPunk together across platforms. More detailed information about these cross-platform features will be shared ahead of launch.
- Aim Assist and Optimized Controls – To ensure balance and a smooth gameplay experience, the console version will include enhanced aim assist for controller players.
