Alright, so I finally got my hands on FragPunk for the PS5, and let me tell you, I’ve been itching to dive into this one. I’d heard some buzz, seen some gameplay, and I was ready to give it a shot. Here’s how it all went down, step by step.
Getting Started
First things first, I grabbed the game from the PlayStation Store. I avoid the phisical copy. It’s downloaded, installed, and I’m staring at the title screen. I always get a little jolt of excitement starting a new game – that feeling of the unknown, you know?

First Impressions
The game throws you right into the action. Boom, tutorial mode. I usually kinda zone out during tutorials, but this one actually kept me engaged. The movement felt fluid, and the gunplay? Super satisfying. I spent a good hour just messing around, getting a feel for the different weapons and abilities. I tested every gun, I jumped, I slid, I basically tried to break the game before I even really started playing. Gotta know the limits, right?
Diving into the Gameplay
After I felt comfortable with the controls, I jumped into a few quick matches. Holy moly, this game is FAST. It’s all about speed and reflexes. I’m not gonna lie, I got my butt kicked a few times at first. But that’s part of the fun, isn’t it? Learning the maps, figuring out the best strategies, and slowly but surely getting better. I started experimenting with different card combinations, trying to find a loadout that really clicked with my playstyle.
Experimenting with Cards
I spent a whole evening just tinkering with the card system. It’s pretty deep, with tons of possibilities. I found a combo that boosts my speed and agility, making me a real pain to hit. Still working on the accuracy, though. I tend to spray and pray a bit too much, haha! I swapped some cards, tried others, failed miserably a few times, and finally landed on something that felt pretty good.
My Progress So Far
I’m still a total noob, don’t get me wrong. I lose my 1v1 frequently. But I’m definitely improving. I’m starting to anticipate enemy movements, predict their attacks, and even pull off some pretty slick maneuvers. It’s that feeling of progress that keeps me coming back for more. Every match, I learn something new, discover a new tactic, or unlock a new card that changes the game.
Overall Thoughts (For Now)
So far, I’m really digging FragPunk. It’s a blast to play, even when I’m getting stomped. The fast-paced action, the deep card system, and the satisfying gunplay all combine to create a really addictive experience. I’m excited to keep playing, keep learning, and maybe, just maybe, become a FragPunk pro someday. Or at least not be the worst player on my team. That’s the goal, anyway!
