Feel the rush
Tango Gameworks has something a bit different in store for its next game.Hi-Fi Rushis a musical rhythm-focused action game, coming to PC and Xbox Series X|S consoles today.
Revealed during today’sXbox Developer Direct, everything inHi-Fi Rushis connected to the beat. The whole world, from its action and combos to the traps and scenery, moves to the rhythm.
Playing as Chai, a “defect” who can detect the rhythm of the world, you team up with pals to take on your enemies. It’s got a vibe similar to something likeSunset Overdrive, and I’m very much down for it.
All killer, no filler: Hi-Fi RUSH is available TODAY!

The team wants it to be playable for those who aren’t so rhytmically inclined too, though. Chai’s cat, the appropriately named 808, can keep the beat for you as a little helper drone. And a marker at the bottom of the screen can also track the BPM for you.
While Tango Gameworks may be known for series likeThe Evil Withinor themore recentGhostwire: Tokyo, which falls more into the dark and scary,Hi-Fi Rushis a bit of a departure. And the added surprise, revealed during the show, is that it goes live tonight. Being an Xbox studio game, too, it’s also part of Xbox Game Pass.
