Hi-Fi Rush Drops The Beat On PS5 Next Month

Bethesda Softworks and Tango Gameworks have announced (via an accidental early release of the trailer) that they will release the rhythm action game Hi-Fi Rush for PS5 on 18 March 2024. It was originally launched for Xbox Series and PC via Steam, Epic Games Store, and Microsoft Store in January 2023.

Hi-Fi Rush is a single-player rhythm action game from Tango Gameworks, the award-winning studio behind Ghostwire: Tokyo and The Evil Within. In Hi-Fi Rush, the entire world moves to the beat. Everything from the trees swaying in the environment to each hit landed during combat auto-syncs to the game’s music with stellar animations.

The player takes on the role of Chai, a free-spirited slacker with rockstar ambitions. During a technological procedure to receive a robotic arm, he finds an unexpected “bonus” when his music player is fused within his power unit. If that wasn’t enough, the company behind the experiment labels him a “defect,” making him a target for deactivation. With a squad of corporate overlords and an army of robots after him, Chai must defend himself through rhythmic combat and the help of a motley crew of allies to take down the company’s ruthless business leaders and escape.

Ho-Fi Rush is one of four confirmed previously Xbox exclusive games coming to the Nintendo Switch. Another is Pentiment for the Nintendo Switch on 22 February 2024 and another one will be Grounded in April 2024 but we still don’t know what the last one will be.
