BrutalGamer Bringing you Brutally Honest feedback from today's entertainment industry.
Acclaimed by fans and critics alike, SloClap’s action title Sifu is officially targeting the Nintendo Switch for a November release.
Losing can age you
And by that I mean, it’ll definitely 100% age you… in Sifu anyway. That’s one of the interesting things about developer SloClap’s acton title; when you lose, your character ages. This isn’t some advance of time either, see in Sifu you’re on a quest for vengeance, powered by a mystical artifact.
When you die, the relic returns you to the land of the living… but at a cost.
Sifu places players in the shoes of a Pak Mei Kung-Fu student who has spent their life training for a day of reckoning after the brutal murder of their entire family by a mysterious assassination squad. With just one day and countless enemies in their way, players must beat insurmountable odds and defeat members of the powerful organization to claim revenge. However, on such a quest for vengeance, time is the price paid. With a magical talisman to revive players after death, defeat doesn’t spell the end. Though the student always comes back, the cost of magic is dear, however, and they will age significantly every time they come back to life.
