Developer Tango Gameworks, known for The Evil Within series and Hi-Fi Rush, has announced that the South Korean publisher Krafton has revived it.
This “strategic agreement” with Xbox and ZeniMax will “ensure a smooth transition and maintain continuity at Tango Gameworks, allowing the talented team to continue developing the Hi-Fi RUSH IP and explore future projects.”
Krafton states that it intends to continue supporting the Tango Gameworks development team and will maintain the current availability of the studio’s titles.
This integration reinforces KRAFTON’s dedication to expanding its global footprint and enhancing its portfolio with innovative and high-quality content. The addition of Tango Gameworks represents a strategic alignment with KRAFTON’s mission to push the boundaries of interactive entertainment.
For those unaware, Tango Gameworks initially announced its closure back in May 2024, so this new development is immensely significant.
Hi-Fi Rush follows protagonist Chai, who gets his heart fused with an old music player, influencing how the gameplay plays out. Combat and movement follow a musical rhythm, and following it to the beat will trigger Beat Hits, combos, team-up attacks, and several more techniques.
Plus, various upgrades and collectibles can be obtained as you strive for S-ranks. Content creators can utilize a streamer friendly soundtrack, too. Other playable modes include the Rhythm Tower and BPM Rush, which all offer extensive rewards.
