FragPunk, the 5v5 tactical hero shooter that utilizes Shard Cards to modify the gameplay each round, will hit Xbox Series X|S and PlayStation 5 on April 29, 2025. The game has already been available to play on PC through places such as Steam since early March.
Since console players missed out on the game's first Season, FragPunk will offer "substantial rewards" to make it up to players. This includes several rewards that were gained through time-limited events from the start of Season 1 through to April 29 when the console version is released. Those who purchase the Pioneer Bundle on console will also get additional gifts after the console launch.
Personally speaking, my friends and I have played FragPunk off and on since its launch. It's fun to hop in for a few rounds every once in a while. Just be warned that the menu UI and vast amounts of different currencies are exceptionally bad.
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.
