The highly anticipated hero shooter, FragPunk, developed by Bad Guitar, is facing a significant delay in its console release due to unforeseen "technical issues." Originally set to launch simultaneously across all platforms on March 6, the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S versions will not meet this deadline. The studio announced this setback just two days before the intended release, leaving console gamers eager yet disappointed. While the developers have not yet provided a new release date for the console editions, they have promised to keep the community informed about any updates.
In a gesture of goodwill, Bad Guitar has committed to compensating those who pre-ordered the game on consoles. Affected players will have the option to receive a full refund or choose to keep their pre-orders and receive in-game bonuses. These bonuses include credits and rewards from the first season, which will be available once the console versions finally launch.
On a brighter note, PC gamers can still look forward to diving into FragPunk without delay. The PC version of the game remains on track for its scheduled release on March 6, ensuring that at least one platform will experience the excitement of this new hero shooter on time.
