We are pleased to inform you FragPunk at the Xbox Summer Showcase 2024. FragPunk is a shooter that aims to carve out its own space in the competitive FPS genre with its unique blend of fast-paced combat and dynamic rule changes. FragPunkEach round offers a new challenge thanks to the unique shard card system.
As part of an action-packed announcement trailer at the Xbox Games Showcase FragPunk unveiled its innovative Power-Up Cards, a feature designed to shake up the hero shooter genre and give players a fresh, ever-changing experience.
In this free-to-play game, players are split into two teams of five and can select game-changing cards before the start of each round. Your goal each round is to either place a converter in the zones defended by the other team or defend against incoming attackers. To do this, players can combine 10 heroes, 15 weapons, and over 70 cards across 4 different maps, so no two rounds are the same. More maps, heroes, weapons, and cards are also on the way to keep the game fresh when it goes live!
A look at the powerful Shard Card System
The trailer offers a glimpse of the intense gunfights and counterattacks enabled by Shard cards. Featured cards include “Chain Reaction,” which releases chain lightning when bullets are fired. “World Flip” turns the world upside down, demonstrating the game’s dynamic and exciting gameplay. These cards add an element of surprise and strategy to every match, encouraging players to adapt and evolve their tactics. The announcement trailer shows the variety and unexpectedness that can be brought to the battlefield and hints at even more cards to come, promising to enhance the player experience even further.
