Funko Fusion Gets a Release Date, Opens Pre-Orders
Funko Fusion has been treated to a release date, with 10:10 Games revealing that its upcoming action adventure is set to hit the market on September 13. The announcement was accompanied by the launch of pre-orders for select versions of Funko Fusion, whose physical edition will be distributed in partnership with Skybound Entertainment's gaming division.

But many will be part of the package, and 10:10 Games says it took great care in choosing IPs to include in Funko Fusion. It ultimately decided to base its picks around the idea of representing «every decade,» with 10:10 co-founder Arthur Parsons revealing as much to Game Rant in 2023. The day-one version of Funko Fusion will thus feature figures based on more than 20 franchises, including Back to the Future, Masters of the Universe, The Umbrella Academy, and NBCUniversal's Frankenstein.
10:10 has partnered with Skybound Games to distribute the physical editions of Funko Fusion, with that collaboration being set to yield at least one content benefit in the form of several The Walking Dead characters. For reference, Skybound Entertainment was
