Digital Cybercherries will release HYPERCHARGE: Unboxed for PlayStation 5 and PlayStation 4 in 2025, the developer announced. Wishlisting is available now via PlayStation Store.
The first- and third-person shooter starring sentient action figures first launched for Switch on January 31, 2020, followed by PC via Steam on April 27, 2020, and Xbox Series and Xbox One on May 31, 2024. The PlayStation versions will support cross-platform play with Xbox Series, Xbox One, and PC.
“HYPERCHARGE: Unboxed has been a smash hit on PC, Switch, and Xbox, where it was selected as one of the six best indie titles of 2024,” said Digital Cybercherries creative gameplay and marketing director Joe Henson in a press release. “When we released it on Xbox, the game sold over 100,000 units in its first month without Game Pass or a publisher—but we’ve had thousands of fans on social media asking us if and when it would be coming to PlayStation. You asked, so we’ve delivered and are so pleased to announce that PlayStation players will get to join in on the fun soon. And better yet, you can play cross-platform with your friends on other systems, ensuring that everyone can get in on the fun!”

About
Help Sgt. Max Ammo to defeat major evil and save the Hypercore!
There was once an ancient line of action figures, who created a magical power source that would allow humans to keep their favorite childhood memories of their toys. This ancient power source is known as the Hypercore.
Inside the Hypercore are the beloved memories of our favorite toys. If Major Evil destroys it, these memories will disappear forever. Defend it with everything you’ve got, or see our cherished toys turn into lost treasures of the past!
Hypercharge is a first and third-person shooter action figure game you’ve always dreamed of! Grab your friends, complete objectives, defend the Hypercore against waves of weaponized toys, and defeat Major Evil together in the story campaign!
Key Features
- Play Cooperative With Your Friends – Work together as a team to defend the Hypercore. Grab a friend, break out of your toy packaging, and get ready to fight waves of classic toys. Prepare for each wave by searching for weapons, resources, and even hidden secrets.
- Offline Play for Solo Players – Not everybody likes to play online. Hypercharge supports Offline, Split-Screen and Local play. You can progress and unlock everything in-game while playing solo.
- Player Bots – Don’t have a team to play with? Don’t worry, we’ve got you solo players covered. Player bots listen to your commands, collect resources, and even help to build defences.
- Unlock Action Figures – In Hypercharge, hundreds of unlocks are available, all of which can be earned directly in-game without any microtransactions.
- Player-Versus-Player Modes – Go head-to-head against other action figures as you fight to become top of the scoreboard! Classic player-versus-player modes include Deathmatch, Team Deathmatch, Capture the Battery, Infection, and King of the Hill.
