FRAGPUNK Closed Beta Test Drops In October: Get Ready for Crossplay, New Content, And Epic Battles!

NetEase Games and Bad Guitar Studio have officially announced the Closed Beta Test for the highly anticipated FragPunk! Running from October 10 to 21, this explosive test will be available on Steam and Xbox Series X|S, featuring Crossplay and a massive influx of new content that will leave you buzzing with excitement.

As someone who experienced the magic firsthand during the Closed Alpha, I can confidently say—FragPunk is about to redefine the shooter genre. The design, uniqueness, and sheer adrenaline made it feel ready to ship right out of Alpha. So you can imagine the excitement for what’s coming in this next phase!

If you were lucky enough to dive into FragPunk’s Closed Alpha on Steam back in June, your access to the Closed Beta is already locked in—no need for extra sign-ups! Simply fire up your Steam Library, and you’re good to go. Xbox players, it’s your turn to jump in! Head over to the Xbox Insider Hub app and register now. PC gamers can also secure their spot through the game’s official Steam Page.

While your progress won’t carry over, don’t worry—there’s a silver lining. All Closed Beta participants will score exclusive in-game rewards when FragPunk officially launches! So every battle you fight now will come back to reward you later.

During the Tokyo Game Show 2024, the latest trailer gave us a sneak peek into what awaits us in the Closed Beta. New Lancers, new Shard Cards, and multiple fresh maps to unleash havoc upon. But that’s just scratching the surface.

Two brand-new Lancers, Sonar and Spider, will debut, bringing game-changing support abilities to the battlefield. Sonar and Spider are set to buff your squad like never before, and they’ll arrive alongside some powerful new weapons that will expand the arsenal of every Lancer. Expect chaos—strategic, thrilling chaos.

But hold up—it gets better. New Shard Cards will debut, adding insane tactical depth. Ever wanted to glide across the battlefield? The new “Birdman” card makes it happen. And that’s just the beginning. With game-altering cards like “Flashlight” and “Safety Glasses,” which counter each other with flashbang effects, the battlefield has never been more unpredictable.
