NEWS | Sifu Set to Debut on Xbox and Steam on March 28 with Arenas Mode expansion

SIFU is set to debut on Xbox and Steam on March 28, 2023, alongside the free Arenas Mode expansion for all available platforms. 

Sifus in training who are eager to enter the arena can pre-order the game on Xbox starting today for $39.99. The brand-new trailer for the Arenas Mode expansion, released by the developer, Sloclap, reveals nine new locations and 45 merciless challenges spread over five game modes, which will pack up to 10 extra hours of gameplay into the already demanding title.

The game is set in a fictional Chinese city, where players take on the role of a young Pak Mei Kung-Fu student, seeking revenge for the murder of their master. Fuelled by years of training that has turned them into an unstoppable force, players will hunt down the terrifying warriors who slaughtered their master years ago, as well as the countless goons guarding them. But revenge comes at a price, exacted through defeat and the power of a mystical talisman. With every failure, players will rise again, older and wiser, though with fewer years to spare than before.

Sifu was hailed as one of last year’s best action / beat ‘em up titles when it debuted on PlayStation consoles and PC in February 2022. It surpassed more than one million copies sold in its first three weeks and garnered critical acclaim. Sloclap’s support of Sifu has been extensive, with numerous updates launched throughout 2022 that added difficulty modes, a long list of exciting gameplay modifiers, new outfits, and more. All update content added to Sifu to date will be available in the game’s new versions. — Geeks Republika
