The eagerly awaited hero shooter, FragPunk, developed by Bad Guitar, has hit a snag for its console release on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S. Originally poised for a synchronized launch across all platforms on March 6, a last-minute announcement just two days before the big day revealed that console players will have to wait a bit longer. The developers cited "technical issues" as the reason behind this unexpected delay. While the new release date for the console versions remains unannounced, Bad Guitar has promised to keep the community informed on any updates.
In a move to soften the blow for eager console gamers, Bad Guitar has stated that all pre-orders for the console editions will be eligible for compensation. This includes the option for a full refund, as well as in-game bonuses such as credits and rewards from the first season, which will be accessible once the console versions finally launch.
On a brighter note, PC gamers can breathe a sigh of relief as the launch of FragPunk on PC remains on track and is scheduled to happen as initially planned on March 6. The studio assures that the PC version will not be affected by the console delays, ensuring that PC players can dive into the action without any hitches.
