· May 31, 2025 Reviewed on PS5Read full reviewJim Hargreaves · May 30, 2025 Reviewed on PS5Read full reviewWasbir Sadat · May 28, 2025 Reviewed on PS5Read full review- As much as I can admire the underutilized concept, Hypercharge: Unboxed still feels too plastic for its own good. Although I admire the tenacity of such a small crew handling an impressive amount of content (single- and multi-player), there's always that danger of missing the bigger picture. Given the surfeit of free-to-play and paid-for shooters coming down the pipeline, mediocre mechanics will always be a major red flag. That's also in large part what leads its competitive multiplayer to feeling stale and tired compared to its better campaign-focused options. It's hard to say how well genre fans will respond to such quality disparities for a middle-market shooter, but there's at least enough to enjoy before it gets buried at the bottom of the toy bin.
Lee Mehr · Jul 03, 2024 Reviewed on Series X|SRead full review - 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.
Terrence Johnson · Jun 05, 2024 Reviewed on Series X|SRead full review - 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.
Varnell Harris · Jun 04, 2024 Reviewed on Series X|SRead full review - Hypercharge: Unboxed doesn't revolutionize the shooter market or offer anything new, but what it does provide is a highly polished, chaotic, and lovingly crafted experience for players who have an itch for retro games and addictive combat loops. There's certainly an argument to be made that this version is coming a little too late into its life cycle, but if Hypercharge: Unboxed can find a consistent and renewed audience with this long-awaited release on Xbox consoles, then perhaps the future is indeed bright for this zany, old school shooter.
Corey Hoffmeyer · Jun 01, 2024 Reviewed on Series X|SRead full review - 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.
Nathan Carter · May 31, 2024 Reviewed on Series X|SRead full review - 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.
Jesse Norris · May 30, 2024 Reviewed on Series X|SRead full review - HYPERCHARGE: Unboxed looks great, has local and online cross-play multiplayer, and makes you feel like a kid. This is a must-play title!
