The hallway scene from old boy is a nice touch.

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).

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 👍🏾

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

I’m loving the game a lot and don’t mind having to replay the older levels. Made it to the museum so far and the game is punishing at times but it makes you feel badass when you roll up through a fight you struggled on numerous times and absolutely smoke the enemies as a young stud with knowledge and experience beyond your years.

Started playing this last night, such a beautiful game!

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

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

Sifu looks very interesting

Man It would be really nice to actually play this

That Oldboy reference level 😍🤤

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

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

This reminds me of Rise Of Honor for the ps2 I love it will be purchasing soon

Would like a Arena option and maybe some random placement of enemies in levels after finishing the game.

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

I hope in future DLC they add double parry's/blocks, and maybe new Level's like the moment in the apartment building from The Raid redemption, the 2 vs 1 fight against a bad guy that can take us both out simultaneously, The Raid 2 fights, within this game, maybe DLC character's, like the main protagonist from that film, etc, Jackie Chan, Rumble in the Bronx, Jet Li in "The One", Jean Claude Van Damme, Donnie Yen, etc, this game has potential not only for future DLC, but maybe future game's of this genre, *Martial Arts video game's*, can't wait to pick this game up for myself, hyped! 🙌😀

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.

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

Game is really awesome, and super hard too. Love it!

Lol I love that death system

Thanks for the review. I’m glad I didn’t buy this at launch. I just pre ordered the Sifu Vengeance Edition that will be released in May. So many games releasing early this year that it’s hard to buy every game. GT7 and Elden Ring will keep me busy for the rest of this year.

I'm playing it on PC currently. Got the digital deluxe edition. Unlocked for me 2 hours ago. The game is good. Very happy with it. I hear PS5 is having issues with downloading...I'm sure it'll get fixed soon.

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

It’s a solid 9 in my book but that’s Gamingbolt for you

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.

I first read Sifu as Stfu lmao

At the beginning of this review, the game was compared to Absolver. My qyestion is...Is the combo system in Sifu as complex as in Absolver? I liked Absolver, but the combo system is way too complex.

If i can master Sekiro, i can master this too

Game looks hardcore

hands down my favorite ps5 game so far

Exleent

Amazing game.

They Gave It 8 Out Of 10 😃

Does the bosses age when the protagonist aged?

Regular blocking isn’t going to cut it you literally have to learn to perfect parry/dodge using directional blocking, both up and body dodges .

reminds me of matrix path of neo

Remind me little bit of sleeping dogs

@ Game reviewer. I was once told by a Romanian co-worker that “jipped” is considered a derogatory term. It was used to color gypsies as dishonest and not square-dealing. You might consider not using that word in your next review.

0:55 I wasn't following this game so I don't know if it's intentional but this sequence reminds me of Old Boy

This looks more like a traditional brawler game witch I am happy about and completely fine with 😁 but I still do think it would be cool a game just like this that still had some use of hand guns or machine guns but not so intense that it would take away from the hand to hand combat elements of it something like a third person Jon Woo style game would be fun with sliding down railing next to stairs wall runs kind of like the PS2 game Wet in third person with all of that said I love what there doing for this game and what there doing with it adding guns to a game like this may take away of some of the appeal that this title captures but everything about the guns that I mentioned in a separate game entirely would be cool like a Sleeping Dogs spinoff sequel or prequel would be kick asz maybe a sleeping dogs Version that takes place within the same time line but maybe you play as a different character maybe from a Yakuza or triad perspective idk anyhow I can't wait for Sifu and I am definitely going to enjoy it as soon as it's available I'm betting it's going to be a good one - I also love games like Final Fight, Streets Of Rage series, Renegade on the nes Double Dragon, The Warriors, The Simpson's arcade thriller, Battle Toads and TMNT'S just some of the genres favorites

@1:19.. his parents were murdered when they were children... what?😩😩😩😭😭🤣

With everyone getting their ass beat I was expecting a little more blood and facial damage to be happening. Reminds me of when I saw Mortal Kombat in the 90s at the theaters, haha... Hopefully anyone buying the game enjoys it, and they fix the deluxe edition bug quickly.

Wen Xbox?

It looks interesting, but its graphics aren't for me somehow. Pretty great how they developed it, but it doesn't do it for me.

It’s also £35

Play Absolver

Yeah one on one fights are easier for me lol. I tend to spaz out on the mobs! 🤣

I found out playing with keyboards and mouse is easier than playing with controller

I see a lot of Sleeping Dogs and Yakuza in the comments…. It’s not that. You’re going to get your feelings hurt with that attitude. Art style aside, it’s a lot like Sekiro, giving its difficulty and focus on posture (or focus). Best hand to hand combat I’ve played, super addictive.

Why couldn't this be Sony free with plus game for the month. It would've got alot more Day One players

Sifu deu legal

You guys put out good content, but how can you review a game and never even mention which platforms it's available on?

Jeeeesus man... I thought Sean was difficult. The 3rd boss makes him look like childs play. All of her combos are a fluid mixture of untelagraphed high and low attacks, pretty much impossible to memorize, and she has blades. So even when you block you take damage, as you frantically watch your health drop, your structure rise, and try to predict weather her next attack will be high or low. Shes impossible!!! I can get through the entire 3rd level at age 37 (my lowest so far) and this b*tch ages me out every damn time 🤦🏾

How this game better than dying light 2?

Shame your fighting the camera almost as much as the enemies.

This game should have been a day one release on PS Plus

I've got the ps5 digital version which is the deluxe I should be able to play it On 06/02/2022 Well that's today and the timer says 13d 10:58:52 ffs so I've bought and paid for deluxe to play 2 days before everyone and now I won't play for another 14 f**King days?

Early af

... Just waiting for the crazy people to cry out "Reee! You can't be hitting women! This game is toxic AF!"

Stop complaining about the difficulty. Not every game needs to be designed with handless children in mind.

Sleeping dogs?

Souls fighting game lol

"This game is dumb and repetitive. I'm gonna go play my racing game, my flight sim and my spaceman shooter. "

another one wanting a "journalist" difficult level.

its not fucking downloading

Wait…… so its not a open world or a battleroyal??

There’s no impact to the punches, sound like pillows fighting each other

Talked to dam 🦫 much

Combat looks very repetitive 🤔

Referring to structure as a stamina shows you didnt understand the game mechanics. Stamina deplete with movement unlike structure that stays the same no matter how many kicks you perform. Another thing I'm pretty sure you're yet another reviewer who didnt finish the game. You're quite old at the club and we never see anything past club which is only 2nd stage.

It looks really bad. Glad i never went for the pre order. The combat isnt as fluid as the trailer made it out to be. Graphics are ps3 standard.

They're 3rd person action games with better freeform melee from 20yrs ago that put this pile of epic vomit to shame like of Crouching Tigre Hidden Dragon, True Crime Streets of LA, Indiana Jones n Emperors Tomb, God Hand, The Bouncer, The Warriors, Mission Impossible Operation Surma, Shenmue & James bond Everything or Nothing.

It looks redundant and annoying. Having 7 vs. 1 fights, where your hits are like fluffy pillows, is unenjoyable. I give the game a 3 out of 10.
