PS5 shooter goes from 5 players to bestseller after devs defend game


Hypercharge suddenly has become a PS5 top-seller

And so we arrive at Hypercharge: Unboxed, a third-person shooter where players control action figures, which was ported at the end of May to Xbox and PlayStation. Steam users have granted Hypercharge a “Very Positive’” rating, with one top review on the platform declaring the experience “pure childhood joy.” Not bad for a game made by a team of 5 people. But I don’t think it’s fair to call a game a failure when it’s doing exactly what it set out to do: offer a solid offline and local co-op experience, with online as a nice extra, not the main focus.”
