The Evil Within’s Creators Made A Colorful Rhythm Game, Available Today

Today, Tango Gameworks revealed Hi-Fi Rush, its next title during Xbox Live and Bethesda Developer_Direct streams. If you’re familiar with the previous games by Tango Gameworks, this is a surprising departure in tone, style and gameplay. 

Hi-Fi Rush is a rhythm action where combat, traversal, and even cutscenes all play to the beat of the game’s soundtrack. Aesthetically, Hi-Fi Rush sits somewhere between Insomniac Games’ Sunset Overdrive and a Saturday morning cartoon – which is to say, bright, over-the-top, and colorful. This is a far cry from Tango’s previous outings like Ghostwire: Tokyo and The Evil Within, both of which emphasize terror and the supernatural. 

See the trailer below.

Hi-Fi Rush will be available via Game Pass later today for Xbox and PC consoles. John Johanas (who previously directed The Evil Within 2) is the director. The film features music licensed from Nine Inch Nails and The Black Keys as well as The Prodigy.
