The developers of FragPunk have released a hotfix for the game, which has brought about certain balance changes. The update includes significant adjustments in FrogPunk Mode, focusing on improving responsiveness and controls.

In the game, the cooldown of Frog’s Booster has been reduced from 10 to 5 seconds, and the cooldown of the primary attack has been decreased from 1 second to 0.6 seconds. The update also enhances Frog's aerial control and makes adjustments to boundaries on specific maps for better game balance.

In the Ranked Shard Clash mode, there has been a comprehensive redistribution of Shard Card costs. Four cards — Weapon or Life, Reaper's Scythe, Let Them Hear You, and Itchy Triggers — have been completely removed from the ranked mode.
