Right now, throughout Xbox’s Developer Direct, Shinji Mikami and the builders of The Evil Inside stunned everybody by saying not a brand new horror recreation however a classy, cartoon-bright motion recreation.
Hello-Fi Rush, developed by Tango Gameworks, is a cel-shaded rhythm motion recreation the place gamers traverse colourful Sundown Overdrive-esque (or Jet Set Radio-model for my old-heads) cityscapes and battle Borderlands-wanting metropolis dwellers. You may try the trailer under.
You play as Chai, a Starlord-type character who, with the facility of his contraband robotic arm and his arc reactor-looking music participant, can see the rhythm of all the things round him. Consider a extra techno-punk model of One Punch Man’s hero, Forte. Nonetheless, life isn’t only a carefree lo-fi beats affair. A maniacal company known as Vandelay Applied sciences (maybe a subsidiary of Vandelay Industries) is on the hunt for Chai’s candy piece of tech, little doubt for its personal nefarious functions. Based mostly on the trailer, Chai received’t be bobbing and weaving in opposition to robots whereas bouncing his little GameStop booty to his curated playlist alone. Chai is joined by an eclectic group of freedom fighters who’re gunning to take Vandelay down. Groovy.
Music performs an integral half within the Tango Gameworks’ rhythm motion title. Effectively-timed hits will reward gamers with bonuses. Very like these nifty film trailers that sync their motion to film trailers, the whole thing of Hello-Fi Rush’s cutscenes and enemy actions are timed to the sport’s soundtrack. Through the use of visible clues from a floating techno companion, gamers can time their assaults completely and bash the skulls of their adversaries with model.
Tango Gameworks wasn’t carried out shocking viewers with the announcement of Hello-Fi Rush. On the finish of its presentation, it introduced that the complete recreation, not a demo, might be out there to play later tonight (no, actually) on Home windows and Recreation Move.
