Action Rhythm Animated Games

Xbox and Bethesda Develop the New Hi-Fi Rush Game Available Now

— January 28, 2023 — Tech
The Evil Within studio Tango Gameworks introduces its new Hi-Fi Rush game, which is essentially a combo-driven brawler that has rhythm game features. Players play with Chai, who is a would-be rockstar that fights against a robotic company through the help of beats.

However, players are not forced to play to the beat, they are actually rewarded when they stay in sync with the high-power combination moves and other finishers. Additionally, the game centers itself around the anime-themed visual complete with humorous themes and a blend of both licensed and original music. Streamers do not have to be concerned about any copyright violations as there is an 'alternate audio move' that ensures the soundtracks are legal throughout any broadcasts.
