Today, independent studio 10:10 Games, in collaboration with Funko, Inc. (Nasdaq: FNKO) and Universal Products & Experiences, alongside physical distribution partner Skybound Games, released Funko Fusion on PlayStation®5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC via Steam.
Inspired by Funko Pop!, the crossover action-adventure game developed and published by 10:10 Games invites players to enter the Wonder Works Factory, choose their favorite world as their starting point, and embark on a journey they define at every step. Battle enemies, solve puzzles, and experience worlds inspired by iconic movies, TV series, comics, and video games on the way to defeating the villainous Eddy Funko and his dreams of total domination.
Explore the Pop! culture extravaganza with levels, quests, and innumerable references based on beloved NBCUniversal franchises including Jurassic World, JAWS, Back to the Future, The Thing, Hot Fuzz, Chucky, Battlestar Galactica, Xena: Warrior Princess, The Umbrella Academy, Masters of the Universe, and beyond, as well as Skybound Entertainment’s Invincible, Capcom’s Mega Man™, and more.
“We’re so proud of what our small team has accomplished with our debut game Funko Fusion, an ambitious, joyful, and lighthearted love letter to pop culture,” said Arthur Parsons, co-founder and Head of Publishing at 10:10 Games. “Building this game, while also building our studio and culture, has been a genuine delight. Funko Fusion is about celebrating fandom, the stories and characters we all love in our uniquely irreverent yet authentic style, and we’re so excited to be able to share it today with the immensely passionate fans that we made it for.”
To get a taste of Funko Fusion, players can try out the free PC demo on Steam, which features the first level of the world inspired by Universal Pictures’ 1982 horror classic The Thing and playable characters including Mega Man, Freddy Fazbear (Five Nights at Freddy’s) and He-Man (Masters of the Universe).
The first wave of a special line of Funko Fusion Funko Pop! figures based on select in-game characters are also available for fans this month at Funko.com and select global retailers, with the second wave, announced at San Diego Comic-Con, coming later this year. Collectors can redeem randomized codes included with Funko Fusion Pop! figures for exclusive in-game bonuses including the Mecha Freddy playable character and bonus variant outfits such as Slime Pit He-Man and Battle Damaged M3GAN.
“Funko Fusion is the kind of game every studio sets out to make, but few achieve. It’s fun and funny, cheeky and unexpected, and impossibly anchored with sincerity and storytelling,” said Jason Bischoff, VP, Licensing and Business Development at Funko. “We spent years looking for the right partners in this space because we knew how important it was going to be to get right. 10:10 Games has blown us away at every step of this journey, and we are so excited to finally invite fans in on the adventure!”
“Funko Fusion unlocks a treasure trove of incredible content, fantastically bringing together iconic worlds such as Jurassic World and Back to the Future, as well as some amazing characters being brought to life in video game form for the first time from distinctive properties like NOPE and M3GAN,” said Bill Kispert, SVP & GM, Games & Digital Platforms at Universal Products & Experiences. “Passionately designed with fans in mind, clever detail and homages from each IP abound and we are excited for players to discover and enjoy them all as they play through this unique experience.”
Funko Fusion is available now digitally on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and Steam, with physical console editions for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S available from select global retailers. Funko Fusion launches for PlayStation 4 on November 15 and digitally for Nintendo Switch this December, with the Nintendo Switch physical edition launching in March 2025.
