One of the most exciting upcoming free to play shooters, Fragpunk, finally has a release date. Developer Bad Guitar Studio opted to announce it during The Game Awards 2024.
In fact, it was jam-packed with free to play announcements. We got a brand new Splitgate 2 trailer, which looks incredibly flashy, and the Warframe: 1999 release date confirmation.
What’s the Fragpunk Release Date?
Fragpunk officially launches on March 6, 2025, which is pretty soon! We also learned that all Shard Cards are going to be completely free, and it’s likely to stay that way permanently.
Why’s that a good thing? Well, it helps keep the game nice and balanced, as no one can pay for an advantage. Well, at least where Shard Cards are concerned. There’s still time for Bad Guitar Studio to drop a powerful paid weapon.
We also learned about two new Shard Cards arriving with the launch: Small Head and World Flip. Small Head literally does what it says on the tin, turning everyone’s heads small. We’re not sure how that provides the user with an advantage, mind.

Does FragPunk Feature Crossplay?
Yes, that was the last announcement in fact. FragPunk will feature full cross platform play across PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X/S. That means you can play with your friends regardless of the platform you choose to play on.
