The characters you encounter are all likable in their own little ways (even the villains), whilst having a feline-like robotic companion in Peppermint ticks the ‘affectionate sidekick’ box perfectly. The storytelling of the game is quirky and fun throughout, with it never taking itself too seriously and packed full of comedic moments to keep a smile on players’ faces. It’s up to Chai to evade the corporation’s attempt to get rid of him, and, with the help of a few new friends, put an end to their evil doings. It’s a dream we’ve all had at one point, right? He figures that signing up to a shady scheme run by a tech corporation would help him out, but instead finds himself branded as ‘defective’ when he’s left with a cybernetic arm and a music-player fused to his heart. Hi-Fi Rush puts players in the role of Chai, a cool young dude who has one blatantly obvious goal in life: to become a rockstar.
Tango Gameworks had already proven they’re masters of crafting fine horror releases with Evil Within, Evil Within 2, and Ghostwire: Tokyo, but who would have thought they could absolutely nail stylish rhythm-based action too? Hi-Fi Rush came out of nowhere with its recent reveal and release at the Xbox Developer Direct, but has already left a mark as one of the console’s most exhilarating exclusive releases.
