What likely started out as an Xbox and/or Bethesda executive thinking “Hey, wouldn’t it be neat if we kept this game a secret and launched it during a special event?” has led to what could easily wind up as one of this year’s GOTY contenders exploding onto the scene in spectacular fashion. Hi-Fi Rush is classic video game action that blends amazing combat in a unique hybrid of genres in with memorable characters, a wicked sense of humor, terrific gameplay that’s accessible for all players and mind-blowing visuals and music. It’s an instant classic, even without the shadow drop, and delivers a candy-coated blast of chaos that conceals a clear labor of love and a weird purity to it all that you need to experience.
Hi-Fi Rush is going to stay with me. I absolutely adore this game, far, far more than I would I would have imagined, given everything said above. It is, quite literally, infectious, as you will not only find yourself involuntarily bopping along with the beat as you play, but even after you’ve shut the game off... It’s joyful, addicting and something I may play twice just for the hell of it. An absolute win.

Hi-Fi Rush delivers an incredibly fun experience with its rhythmic combat that challenges players to time their attacks perfectly. For a smoother playthrough, I recommend trying easy mode. The dialogue is sharp, and the story creates a solid bond with the characters. The game also cleverly shifts into a 3D platformer in key areas, adding variety as players navigate left and right. Overall, it’s a fresh and engaging ride!

The combat with the rhythm is just something incredibly done in this game, the bosses are really good to face against and it’s soundtrack just rocks!

I can't imagine any of Hi-Fi RUSH getting old. It's so vibrant, so full of life, and so unique. It stands out in a world where many AAA releases seem determined to be anything but. Add in the replay value of chasing high scores and Rhythm Tower, which functions a lot like Devil May Cry's Bloody Palace mode, and this is a game that you can play for a long time.
Hi Fi Rush is a surprise in every way: launch, gameplay, story, voice acting, performance... the first must-have of 2023.
Hi-Fi Rush is an energetic and frantic game, with lots of character and characters. Some of its bosses encounters are amongst the best I've played in a long time. The weakest part is its rhythm-based system, but the game is smart enough to let the players enjoy it even when they're not beating everything up following its tempo.
This is a world that, robot assassins aside, is pleasurable to exist within and to explore, made all the sweeter by virtue of its unexpected arrival.
Hi-Fi Rush is a nice surprise from Tango Gameworks. The originality of the combat system, halfway in the world of rhythm games, is a gimmick that gives the game its strength but also its biggest weakness, making it repetitive. With ten hours to finish the game, it's not a torture either.
Hi-Fi Rush é uma obra-prima vibrante que funde ação frenética e musicalidade de forma magistral. Sua estética deslumbrante, aliada a um sistema de combate que pulsa em sincronia com a trilha sonora envolvente, cria uma experiência imersiva e única.

I'd give this game a 7.5, but I can definitely understand why people give this a 9 or a 10. I think the exploration is fun, the graphics are great, and the aesthetic is really cool. However, what I have come to realize is that I personally just don't like rhythm games all that much. If rhythm games are you're thing, I can easily see this being a 10/10 game. I enjoyed the rhythm mechanic during most fights, but the sections where I had to follow button prompts on screen to press a big button and open up a new path were just tedious and took me out of the fun. I also hated when the game gated me off and made me match some button combo to the beat to parry lasers from flying robots. These moments when the game forces you to do these things just felt so annoying and disruptive. I got to chapter 6 which I think is about half way and I had to put the game down because I was annoyed. Maybe I'll come back to it later if my backlog is empty.

Behind gorgeous animations, music, art style and sound design lies a hack n slash game which is just... kinda average? Slow and some questionable design decisions here and there. And the reddit type humor is embarrassing. But its a good game for $30 I guess

It's a game that's been unnecessarily hyped for lack of good titles on the launch platform. For kids and casual gamers.
