    An exciting game! Excites right from the start, thanks to a fun combat system, art style and beautiful cutscenes, in addition to its very charismatic characters. It's a wonderful addition to Xbox Game Pass, finally Microsoft's purchase of Bethesda has started to pay off.

    A mitad de camino en el mundo de los juegos de ritmo, se hace muy repetitivo, esta bien para pasar un rato pero sus 10 horas son muy monótonas.

    Because this game released in 2 hours after it’s first presentation, and not in 2 years, I do find something that I love in it because it was like an surprise.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Hi-Fi Rush is a fantastic game that is perfect for anyone who loves rhythm-based action games. The game features an great soundtrack, vibrant graphics, and challenging gameplay that will keep you entertained for hours. Whether you are a casual gamer or new to rhythm based games the immersive world and somewhat generic story is told in such a way that it makes the game even more enjoyable and you can't wait to see what happens in the next part of the story and the boss battles are something else! Great game and my GOTY so far.… Expand

    I’m not really good with rhythm games… I just don’t have the “groove”. But with this game, I was able to get into the rhythm and play effectively and it felt so satisfying. The art style is so awesome. I’ve never seen “cell shading” done so well as to make it seem like a hand drawn cartoon so consistently.

    Amazing game! Visuals are stunning and the combat fluid and fun. The music is top notch the beat never seems off and always is flowing. I love how the environment slams along with you as you rush through the stages. Fantastic game!

    It's fun, not too long and looks awesome. The soundtrack is a blast as well and it's polished. Just what I needed for a great start in the new year.

    L'excellente surprise de ce début d'année. A faire absolument. Un excellent gameplay, une DA de dingue, une bande son folle. Bref foncez. Je met 9 parce que pour moi le jeu parfait n'existe pas.

    Hi-Fi RUSH is a phenomenal game. The year is still young, but this could be a potential GOTY nominee when it's all said and done. The combat feels immaculate, the art style is charming as all get out, and the main cast of characters is endearing. My only main gripe is that the platforming, while certainly fun, isn't as precise as I'd like it to be.

    This is the game that gaming needed to feel fresh again! It proves flashy physics and graphics don’t make a good game. We need more passion projects like this in the gaming industry.

    Una auténtica sorpresa. Lo jugué en el Game Pass. Las sensaciones al jugarlo no son, ni de lejos, las mismas que los videoanálisis. ¿Hack&slash rítmico? Después de años y años jugando, me encanta que los videojuegos me sigan sorprendiendo y emocionando. Una historia simple, pero eficaz y divertida al igual que las situaciones y personajes. Recomendado 100%.

    Solid enough game with enjoyable soundtrack. Takes a bit of time to get used to rhythm aspect when doing battles but it works well. Only negative is from the character korsica in the game with the worst bit of voice acting in a game ever, supposed to be a scottish accent but it is dreadful, how can you be a voice acter and so bad with an accent.

    It is a masterpiece. It has platform moments with a perfect combat also with one of the best musical games in the last years. You can also reach the momentum so quickly and it feels amazing!

    Incredible game from start to finish, love the art and charm the game gives. Fire soundtrack for both copyright songs and streamer soundtrack, really well done. Just oozes with old 90s Dreamcast/Xbox style and is just a great feel-good game. Definitely one of the best Xbox games I've played in a long time, and one of the most fun games I've played in memory.

    El juego sorprende de inicio y es divertido en sus primeras horas pero en mi opinión se vuelve repetitivo demasiado rápido. No entiendo tanto bombo al juego, la verdad. No lo hubiese ni probado si no estuviese en Gamepass

    tra l'altro ho trovato molto ridicolo il primo vero boss del gioco, è un plagio/caricatura a V di LOL, copia incollata anche nella caratterizzazione. Disegni in certi frangenti che rasentano l'imbarazzante coi puntini che ricordano in maniera ridicola gli album da colorare di mia figlia coi "pennarelli magici" doppiato probabilmente da Y.tubers aspiranti doppiatori in erba con scene di intermezzo scattose, stessa cosa x il gameplay che ti da quel senso di 30fps nonostante probabilmente giri a 60, tutto questo sulla console "più potente del mondo da 12 teraFLOPS, Buon 2010    … Expand

The highlight for me were the bosses, or all have amazing environments surrounding them, unique personalities and fun fights. Imo the levels are a bit toooo long which makes the setting they are in get pretty old pretty quickly.

    I may suck at rhythm games, but I could see myself improving and getting more and more enjoyment out of it. But unlike other games, Hi-Fi rush actually seems complete on release with no bugs observerd.

    Great game overall.    … Expand

    It’s a hack and slash with a combination of platforming for the whole family. From the start, its presentation, its plot and even its controls say it all. Its playtime is perfect, and you can play it as many times as you want. However, the button-matching stages can be tedious if you struggle to keep up, as well as a couple of bosses whose mechanics are unclear during the battle. Otherwise, Hi-Fi Rush is just flawless.

    What you will remember about Hi-Fi Rush is just how charming it is. It’s so rare for a game from one of the major developers to take a creative risk, and Hi-Fi Rush does just that. Not only is the core of the game innovative, but the way each character is written takes a big risk of having people switch off before they develop and you grow to love them. I hope Hi-Fi Rush is incredibly successful. I hope it teaches the industry that creative innovation can also create profits, and we see more new and interesting ideas from the big boys in the future.
