Funko Fusion is turning up the magic with the release of two brand new DLC packs tied to the movie adaptation of the beloved musical, Wicked. When Funko Fusion hit the shelves, it offered players an eclectic mix of intellectual properties to dive into. Some of these were fully-fledged worlds, while others were showcased with playable characters.
The core of Funko Fusion brought adventurers to worlds inspired by The Umbrella Academy and Jurassic World. Meanwhile, players could unlock characters from hits like Invincible and Child’s Play. Now, Wicked fans get the exciting opportunity to add some iconic characters to their lineup with these freshly dropped Wicked DLC packs.
Priced at $7.99 each, you can nab these Wicked movie packs for your Funko Fusion game. The first pack stars Wicked’s leading duo, Elphaba and Glinda, while the second introduces The Wizard and Madame Morrible. Though these characters won’t get their own special Wicked-themed world, you can play them across any Funko Fusion levels. So, anyone eager to step into the shoes of their favorite Wicked characters has that chance right here.
Funko Fusion can currently be enjoyed on PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X. If you’re on other platforms, don’t worry—your chance is coming soon. Originally slated for a November release, the PS4 and Switch versions are now set for December 6. On that day, both platforms will also get the Wicked DLC, so mark your calendar if you’re planning to snatch them up.
The road hasn’t been smooth for Funko Fusion, with its launch marred by negative reviews and community frustration. However, the developers have been working hard on improvements through updates. These updates have tackled player concerns about boss battles and difficulty levels, with a particularly welcome addition being the introduction of online co-op, enhancing the game significantly since its debut.
With Wicked proving to be a box office juggernaut, Funko Fusion offers one of the few gaming avenues to enjoy its magic. It’ll be interesting to see if more gaming partnerships arise next year when the second part of Wicked hits theaters.
As for the game itself, Funko Fusion is a vibrant celebration of fandom, where players can experience beloved franchises through unique Funko Pop! versions. The game allows you to choose from over 60 characters from more than 20 popular franchises. Each character comes with their own weapons and special moves, some even possessing unique skills for puzzle-solving and secret-finding. The game promises action-packed combat and a chance to relive cherished moments, all tied together within a bespoke narrative.
