Hi-Fi Rush has garnered widespread acclaim since release. On OpenCritic, it has a glowing aggregate score of 90 after 62 reviews, and our own review was full of praise as well. Audiences, too, have responded to the game positive, to say the very least.

Not only have people been taken by surprise by the fact that a studio that's known for making nightmare-inducing survival horror games has come out with something so bright and humorous and charming out of nowhere, Hi-Fi Rush also has undeniable strengths at its core, thanks to its incredibly fun combat and its rock 'n roll music.
