FragPunk has been delayed on consoles due to technical challenges faced during the optimization and adaptation of the game.
FragPunk, the highly anticipated hero shooter releasing on March 6, 2025, has been delayed on consoles. The PC versions of the game will release on the same date as originally intended, but the console port has been delayed indefinitely with no date revealed as of yet.
The FragPunk team announced the delay of the console version of the game on X (formerly known as Twitter) on March 4, 2025, just two days before it was set for release. The developers cited technical reasons for the delay and have offered compensation to players on consoles as an apology.
Developed by Bad Guitar Studios, FragPunk is a shooter that mixes hero shooter elements with randomized roguelike features. Each round presents you with a set of cards, and depending on which one you pick, your round plays out differently. Each card has different rules to follow, adding unpredictability to each match.
This game was highly anticipated due to its unique take on the genre, and the console delay comes as a bummer for players who were excited about the game. We shall discuss the reasons for the delay of the console version and take a look at the compensation being offered to players below.

Why FragPunk Was Delayed on Consoles?

As stated earlier, FragPunk has now been delayed on consoles. The developers cited optimization and adaptation issues as the main culprits behind the delay. Rather than release FragPunk on consoles right away in a poor state, the developers delayed the console versions entirely. The FragPunk Team stated:
“During the console compliance testing process, we encountered unexpected technical challenges in optimization and adaptation. Rather than rushing the console release and providing a potentially poor user experience, we have made the decision to delay the launch of the console versions to ensure that players receive a comparable experience to those on PC.”
To compensate for this delay, the console players will be getting all the rewards that they will be missing out on due to the delay. Those who had preordered the console versions of the game will also have their preorders canceled as per policy. Refunds will be issued shortly and will reflect in their accounts. The developers will also add $10 worth of in-game currency to their accounts.
