Is FragPunk crossplay?

FragPunk is a quirky first-person hero shooter where teams use unique cards at the start of each round to set rules that can increase their chances of winning. Talk about shooting enemies with big heads.

The game has made its presence known on PC, and with its distinct gameplay hitting console platforms soon, players are wondering whether it has crossplay. Here’s all you need to know about FragPunk crossplay and cross-progression features.

Does FragPunk have crossplay?

FragPunk is set to have crossplay feature when it launches on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S on April 29, according to Bad Guitar Studio’s announcement. This means that console players will be able to play with others on the PC version, allowing them to team up and play together.

One of the resounding benefits of enabling crossplay is the increase in player base size, so you can avoid the plague of reported bot lobbies. Of course, these days, it’s safe to assume everyone has a friend or two who plays on a different platform. Crossplay keeps players happy and improves a live service game’s odds of sticking around in the long run.

With crossplay in FragPunk, console players will be jumping into matches alongside PC players, which means facing off against mouse and keyboard users. To help balance things out, the game’s adding “enhanced aim assist” on consoles, giving controller users a bit of extra support to stay competitive against the precision of mouse users.

Whether or not you can choose to disable crossplay, especially in ranked mode, remains a mystery until we see it fully implemented. However, I expect it to be an option in the settings. NetEase, which is connected to Bad Guitar Studio, has successfully implemented crossplay in Marvel Rivals, but disables it in ranked matches.

Does FragPunk have cross-progression?

FragPunk is set to feature cross-progression across all platforms. This means players can log in and carry their rewards, battle pass progress, and achievements wherever they play. The main benefit of cross-progression is the ability to progress in your battle pass freely, or commit to a new platform without losing all of your in-game purchases.

However, I anticipate a player’s rank will remain connected to the platform it was received on. So, if you reach Diamond rank on PC, you’ll likely have to start from scratch if you decide to make the switch to console.

More details about Fragpunk crossplay and cross-progression features will be available ahead of the console launch on April 29. We’ll update the article when new information becomes available.
