There are plenty of modes to enjoy, single or multiplayer, and makes for a simple and enjoyable game you can play for a few rounds or number of hours. It’s clear HYPERCHARGE Unboxed was made with a lot of care, and if you’ve ever wanted Small Soldiers to be a game, this is it.

If you're looking for a nostalgic multiplayer action game that you can play with the family (there's also split-screen here), then Hypercharge: Unboxed is not a bad option at all.

I know I have been critical of the developer in the past, and while I, myself didn’t really vibe with their marketing techniques; at the end of the day developer Digital Cybercherries’ freshman offering is a joy to play with others. It can be rather difficult alone due to having to defend multiple towers, but with others, online or split-screen I cannot deny this is a fun game. Its not going to set the world on fire, but for a group of buddies on a weekend; this one will definitely make you smile.

Hypercharge is a blast! I have followed its progress since it was announced for Xbox and I'm incredibly pleased with how it turned out! For a small team of Devs they give Halo and COD a run for their money when it comes to fun factor, balancing, and being bug-free. As a 40-something this game hits all the marks as an old-school shooter as well as a nostalgic theme for a kid of the '80s who was obsessed with action figures, been having a great time playing with my son on Split-screen. Very forgiving shooter even in multiplayer. It's made to have fun, not to be a competitive FPS. It was a Day-One purchase for me and I'd gladly shell out more for new content down the line.

Ive been gaming since I was in elementary school and I play gamesof all types. Id like to think im very fair and knowledgeable in my review of games. I must admit this is a fun game. Bought it and immediately put in 4 hours. It’s a fresh new feel to all the fps out now in a good way. Nostalgic yes but that’s not all it is. it could usesome tweaks here and there but nothing that I can sit here and complain about and that will make me stop playing the game. Can’t wait to see how the game progresses and I will recommend others to play it. Xbox GT : Jewkneeur

best kids friendly fos shooter.
my daughter and son are both enjoying the game... thanks to the aim assist feature, i finally can play FPS without feeling dizzy i really hope that the developer can work with toy maker to bring licensed character action figure to the game for future DLC as well as more real world location such as popular fast food restaurant franchise for the new map. really hope that this game can sucess in long run.

Hypercharge: Unboxed for its price is definitely a title many should consider picking up. It’s cute, charming, and most importantly it’s nostalgia bait done right. Everything from the gameplay elements and the scenery feels like it was done with care. Being able to relieve a piece of my childhood has been a treat and I’m always itching to put toys back into their boxes.

A little rough around the edges with traversal but there is so much charm and fun with this game that I can easily overlook the negatives. Each level is like a trip down memory lane and reminds me of when I had epic battles that left a complete mess of my bedroom, living room and more. With lots of replayability and fun game play, Hypercharged: Unboxed will be one of those surprise hits for me of the year. A game I didn't even know existed that ended up being one of my favorites of the year.

Probably the most used word in this review is ‘fun’, but that’s really what playing HYPERCHARGE Unboxed is. It’s the kind of game you play with a big smile on your face the entire time. It doesn’t take itself too seriously, but it is a joy to play whether on your own in the campaign, jumping online for a few rounds or teaming up with friends.

Hypercharge: Unboxed delivers fantastic first and third-person shooting across a good variety of maps and modes, and we've been genuinely impressed by how this indie shooter feels on Xbox with a gamepad in-hand. Sure, outside of the novel theme Hypercharge doesn't really do anything truly unique as a shooter, but that theme is refreshing enough on its own to make this a worthwhile endeavour. Adding in some real-life co-op buddies will likely extend the game's shelf life quite a bit, but even as a solo player we can still recommend Hypercharge: Unboxed to any shooter fan. Now, go forth, and reclaim that spare bedroom!

I think HYPERCHARGE Unboxed’s biggest strength has been its marketing over the years. They’re not going for some live service title that is your forever game. The base game is $30 and if you have friends to play with you’ll get a week or two of fun out of the campaign as you try to unlock everything. It’s never bad, it’s never great, it’s fine.

The Ultimate Splitscreen Hit: A Masterpiece for Family and Friends The graphics are top-notch, and the inclusion of splitscreen and co-op modes are rare gems in today's gaming world – and this game delivers both in abundance. It's a true joy to play with family and friends (I always play it with my girlfriend). Particularly outstanding is that this title is one of the few that maintains a consistent 60 FPS. 10/10
