Hi-Fi RUSH puts you in the beat-up sneakers of Chai, a wannabe rocker wrongfully labeled a “defect” by a sinister tech corporation. Everything in Hi-Fi RUSH automatically syncs to the music, from swinging your trusty guitar to dodging out of the way of an oversized metallic fist.
Players must feel the rhythm to enhance Chai’s actions, pulling off heavy Beat Hits at the end of a combo like a cymbal crash, or syncing up with one of his allies for a devastating tag-team finisher. In Hi-Fi RUSH, every battle is an opportunity to play out your own music video fantasy, seamlessly coordinating all your moves with the soundtrack.

Hi-Fi RUSH is out NOW for Xbox consoles and Windows PC. Download and play for free today on Xbox Game Pass. To learn more about Game Pass, check out Microsoft’s official website.
It was announced today that Tango Gameworks, the studio behind Hi-Fi Rush, will be shut down, which casts doubt on the future of the game.
I’m sure the support and franchise will live on due to its success. They may even keep some ppl and roll them into other studios. There are layoffs across the map tho in the game/tech industries in general tho including Sony, Facebook and more. My personal family has been affected by them.
Yet MS made a company-wide profit of $22 billion.
In my eyes releasing this on gamepass was a double edged sword approach, received extremely well, but didn't hit w.e batshit insane sales target MS had In mind
have all the people saying m$ buying all those companies, been proved correct yet,
they said more games, more choice, but ended up
less choice, less games, in reality... we were right
They developed the highest rated game Xbox has had as a exclusive in years and they shut them down? Doesn't make much sense.
Hi-Fi Rush for the Nintendo Switch has received a PEGI 12 rating in anticipation of its release. This is even though the game hasn't been officially announced.
I wouldn't play this on Switch, unless it can run at 60fps on it. I don't see that happening. Hope I'm wrong.
"First Hi-Fi Rush and now Beat Slayer, I'm convinced the rhythm-action genre has a ton of potential just waiting to be explored," writes Hanzala from eXputer.
Looks interesting but seems like a game specifically made for Gamepass
I really hope they have another team working on Evil Within 3 or something
Looks great shadow drop it like that. It’s really awesome of tango to do that give us something right now.
F..k the game you made Shinji.. We WANT SURVIVAL HORROR GAME ! And you made this ??!!!! A Huge dissappointment.
