The ultimate fandom experience is now available on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC via Steam. The action-adventure game is developed by 10:10 Games in collaboration with Funko, Inc. and Universal Products & Experiences.

Funko Fusion, like its collection of physical toys, features nods to pop culture classics like Jurassic World, Back to the Future, The Umbrella Academy, Masters of the Universe, and more. Characters such as Mega Man, Freddy Fazbear (Five Nights at Freddy’s), and He-Man come together to battle against Eddy Funko in a bid to stop his dreams of total domination.

Built for kids and kids at heart, the game takes players to explore their favorite iconic worlds via the Wonder Works Factory. Once outside, they embark on a journey packed with puzzles, battles, and fan-favorite characters from popular franchises.

It was released a few days ago but the feedback has been less than stellar, with reviewers like CGMagazine calling it ‘an ultimately boring’ title. It received subpar scores of 6’s and 7’s. Even IGN gave it a staggeringly low score of 4, stating that ‘[it] contains precious little in the way of interesting new ideas.’

Ultimately, the game received a playscore of 6.8 on PlayStation 5, with the PC version receiving a 6.5 gamerscore from other players.

Despite its middling reviews, Funko Fusion has enough charm to lure in kids that enjoy these franchises coming together. Twinfinite scored a 7 on their review saying that ‘there’s enough charm here that even if you’re tangentially invested, you’ll have a good time.’

Anyone can still try out the game before purchasing to make their own informed decision. A PC demo is still available on Steam, offering a sneak peek into levels inspired by the 1982 horror classic The Thing.

Funko Fusion is available digitally for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, and Steam, with physical console editions also on sale. A PlayStation 4 version will be released on November 15, with a Nintendo Switch edition launching digitally in December and physically in March 2025.
