During the Xbox and Bethesda Developer Direct, or Developer_Direct as they put it, Tango Gameworks revealed their brand-new title. It's called Hi-Fi Rush and it is available right now. Interested parties can pick up the game right now for Xbox Series X|S, Game Pass, and for PC through the Microsoft Store, Steam, and the Epic Games Store.
For $29.99 (USD), you can begin playing this rhythm action game. Hi-Fi Rush really looks and feels unlike most of Tango's other titles, those being games like The Evil Within and Ghostwire: Tokyo. Hi-Fi Rush features a mix of new tracks created at Tango along with some familiar licensed tracks from groups like Nine Inch Nails and The Black Keys.
Hi-Fi RUSH is a rhythm action game set in a colorful world where everything is driven by the beat of the music - from the trees swaying in the environment to every hit landed during combat. Combat sequences perfectly align to the rhythm of the music, allowing for gameplay that is not only exhilarating but also extremely satisfying. A player’s moves aren’t dictated by the music like in a traditional rhythm game — players have the freedom of a full action game. However, inputting actions with the beat amplifies the player’s attacks along with the music.
Players take on the role of Chai, a free-spirited slacker with rockstar ambitions. During a technological procedure to receive a robotic arm, he finds an unexpected “bonus” when his music player is fused within his power unit. If that wasn’t enough, the company behind the experiment labels him a “defect,” making him a target for deactivation. With a squad of corporate overlords and an army of robots after him, Chai must defend himself through rhythmic combat and the help of a motley crew of allies to take down the company’s ruthless business leaders and escape.
