Sifu Review - The Final Verdict

Sifu ultimately has much more going for it. With a challenging combat system that encourages you to master it, an appealing art style, polished gameplay, fitting soundtrack, and strong focus on its few core tenants, it’s definitely one of those “if you think you’ll enjoy it then you probably will” games.

More importantly though, it brings something new to the beat ‘em up genre while only rarely missing the mark on achieving its own goals, and even when it does, it’s not by that much. Despite a couple hang-ups, Sifu is ultimately a commendable experience that successfully injects an intense sense of danger and tension right into the heart of the beat ‘em up genre.

As a fan of asian action, martial art cinema i respect this game a lot cause it tries to emulate that genre and there is nothing else like it. I loved Sleeping Dogs and i was very dissapointed when the sequel was canceled. I hope Epic Games makes enough profit to continue supporting martial art games and make even greater stuff. (sorry for my bad English).

The hallway scene from old boy is a nice touch.

This game is SUPER hard... But they did a really good job at giving you a sense of actually learning with each death. Your character doesnt get better because of some game breaking upgrade... Your character gets better because YOU get better!!! But you have to pay attention and correct your mistakes. Or you'll be 70 before you know it!!! Fantastic job sloclap 👍🏾

This game is definitely meant for me! And I’m saying this as a fan of kung fu action games and movies & as a martial arts practitioner

The best thing is that enemies aren't dumb and don't just walk into your punches

[evangrullon]

My kind of game. Been a fan of beat em up games forever

They should have made it 2 player, called it Double Dragon, and made quadrillions of dollars.

Been looking forward to this badass game for some time. I might have to buy the deluxe edition to get it early. Can't wait!

Its Reminds me of jackie chan's stunt master game from PS 1

I like the that you have to do the levels several times. It has that roguelike kind of element to it without the randomness.

[Ninja]

I absolutely love this game. As a lifelong martial artist, I really appreciate this game.
Only thing I don’t like is the sound effects 😂 seems super anti climactic

[pfunk]

I bought the shit outta this game. Having a God damn blast! 😀

[kathrena]

devs should just used a bad ending in the aging system
where u died old without accomplishing your vengeance
then u can restart in ng+ with all the upgrades u earned

[Yungkingpinz]

Im having issues with the game already. Daring the training area right after the dad is killed where the screen is red the part where i have to "Sweep" the lady to knock her down it want allow me to do the take down right after the sweep attack. I see on other videos it show to hold O button to do it but its not even showing on my game smh.

I love the whole Mario bros aspect of liner levels with progressive dynamic difficulty … it makes for a pretty damn cool game. It’s fun, and because of its structure you can challenge yourself to be REALLY good at this game

[davidcarney]

This looks awesome I haven't saw an open world beat em up look this good since Sleeping Dogs I really love these style of games and am just happy there is a studio working on something similar

[StevieWill]

@2:46 is that an Oldboy homage I see 😎

[steveybiggunzgaming]

The game won’t download on ps5, the deluxe edition was supposed to unlock today at 7am the count down is at 0.00 and isn’t doing anything.

[GameMasterpg]

I feel this game will be way better with New Game +

[RagnarokMic]

Great beat 'em ups are few and far between, more so now that Yakuza went turn based, can't wait for this one.
