OMG, that was a RUSH!!

I don't generally write reviews, but after playing this game I felt a need to. Tango Gameworks have well and truly outdone themselves here, this is the first game in a long time that I have felt drawn to keep playing, it's story is engaging and the gameplay is spectacular. Once those credits rolled at about 12 hours into my play-through I had feelings of joy for having just beat the best game I have played in years and sadness that my Journey with Chai and friends had unfortunately come to an end.

This game has a solid chance of taking away Game of the Year, even in a year where we are expecting some of the biggest game-changers of the gaming industry to release with competition like Diablo IV, Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, Spider-Man 2, Starfield, Kerbal Space Program 2, Hollow Knight: Silksong, etc.

I hope this is just the beginning, I hope that Tango has managed to give other game studios the confidence they need to start being more adventurous in their exploration of the gaming world. I hope this isn't the last time we see a AAA studio step out of their comfort zone to provide gamers with a truly exceptional experience, rather than just a remake or cookie cutter version of a tried and tested IP.

If you haven't already played Hi-Fi Rush, what are you waiting for? Don't miss out on this one!
