"Funko Fusion", a Funko Pop based action-adventure game, has been announced



The Funko Pop figures have been a popular collectible item to many people for quite some years now, with the wide array of characters that the Funko Pops impersonate ranging from any kind of media and pop culture reference. Funkos can go from anything horror related, to even Disney related, and it goes far beyond just movies, also having video game characters in their figures. It was only a matter of time before the whole Funko Pop craze would make an attempt into the digital world.

Today, a new teaser trailer has been released, announcing an upcoming action-adventure video game featuring the iconic Funko figures from a variety of media franchises, with Funko Pop figurines featuring characters from movie franchises like Jurassic World, The Thing, Back to the Future, Shaun of the Dead and even Child's Play, all seen in events and stages from their corresponding movies.

Funko Fusion's synopsis said:
Funko Fusion is an upcoming action-adventure game where players embody their favorite Funko Pop characters and the worlds they originate from. Explore the worlds and play as characters from Back to the Future, Jurassic World, The Thing, Child's Play 2, and more alone in single-player or in 4-player co-op. Battle enemies, explore vast environments, and solve intriguing puzzles in Funko Fusion from former TT Games developers. Funko Fusion is launching in 2024 for PC and consoles.

The game is currently being developed by a new studio based in the United Kingdom, named "10:10 Games", which was co-founded by one of the original founders and developer from Traveler's Tales and TT Games, Jon Burton, and the game is set to release on 2024 for consoles and PC.

Funko? More like fuk no.

Never saw the appeal of these ugly waste of plastics.
I don't understand how they're so popular and successful. They all have the same eyes and face.

Even Amiibos, Infinity, and Skylanders are better than this.

These "collectables" are fugly in real life. I definitely don't need their ugly asses in my video game consoles.

the only appeal was for those properties which had zero merchandise. some obscure anime from the 00s that no one has heard of before? there's a pop for it.

I'm never sure how you're suppose to distinguish human characters, though.
There's almost zero merch for Lain, beyond a few impossible to afford official dolls and music CDs. 98% of Lain merch is bootleg stuff, but I'm okay with that. Though there is a official Lain "bootleg" CD, which kind of fits with the show's tech theme.

I think it is just because they are everywhere. You want to buy a present for someone, no clue what to buy. You know he likes Dragon Ball, go to a store, the first thing you see is this figure, done deal.

funko pops are the epitome of soulless corporate merchandise, literally what is the appeal for a video game of them. It's like making a video game based off of sillybands or pogs or something, there's nothing outside of the merchandise that can be enhanced by having it as a game

Hot wheels/matchbox cars? Tons of appeal for a video game, tons of customization
LEGOs? So much room to work with for a game, you can build anything
Gundam? totally! everyone likes cool robots
but funko pops???? what a waste of talent at traveller's tales

this game would probably be better if it was just the actual characters that the Funko pops represent instead of the expressionless vinyl figures of them

    Eventhough the New 3DS XL is more powerful, I still feel like the DS Lite was a more polished system. It's a real shame that it never got an XL variant keeping the GBA slot. You'd have to go on AliExpress and buy an ML shell to give a DS phat the unofficial "DS Lite" treatment, and that's the best we'll ever get I'm afraid.

    The phat model had amazingly loud speakers tho.

    @Jayro, I don't see whats so special about the DS ML, its just a DS lite in a phat shell. At least the phat model had louder speakers, whereas the lite has a much better screen.

    They probably said "Hey, why not we combine the two together and make a 'new' DS to sell".

    It's a DS Lite in a slightly bigger DS Lite shell.

    It's not a Nintendo / iQue official product, it's a 3rd party custom.
