One of the most exciting upcoming games for Xbox fans is the quirky and stylish FragPunk, set to launch in 2025. This hero shooter offers a unique twist: players can dramatically change how the game plays by activating special Shard Cards, which can alter the gameplay in countless ways. Each match is designed to be super quick, lasting no longer than two and a half minutes, and just one wrong move could knock you out of the game. Gamers are already buzzing with anticipation to try out the colorful cast of heroes and use their cards to tilt the game in their favor. However, the official release is still a bit of a wait. Luckily, you don’t have to wait long to dive in—there’s a closed beta test starting soon, so make sure to sign up to snag a spot!
