I could grab CD collectibles spinning around each level to broaden the selection of tunes as I progressed through the demo. In the middle of a run, I was able to stop and pop open the navi-menu, which acts like a smartphone, to change outfits or music tracks. If I found any spots where I could spray a tag, all it took was getting close to the highlighted spot and moving the thumbstick around in a quick mini-game to cover the area. One time, I defied gravity by grinding up a pole, following the rail around sharp corners, jumping and boosting across a gap, wall-riding across a billboard, and then launching myself up a half-pipe. Whether I put on some inline skates, hopped onto a BMX-style bike, or rode a skateboard, I found tricky lines where I could grind rails and power lines while popping sick manuals and 360-degree tricks for long strings of stylish combos. "Humming The Baseline" Pop out that flip-phone to change your beats. A handy boost meter also lets me dash quickly around the map and connect tricks together that wouldn’t normally be feasible. Between the inside of a wide-open shopping mall and an adjacent lot that was pretty much a skate park where Red’s crew hangs out, I had plenty of space to shred. The demo I played didn’t go through much of the story at all, choosing instead to throw me straight into the deep end in what was essentially a free mode. If Red can spray graffiti all over the city - and look stylish while he does it of course - his crew will earn the Rep they need to gain control of the streets. Along with members Tryce and Bel, he hopes to tag the walls of New Amsterdam while discovering the one responsible for removing his head. It stars a graffiti writer named Red whose head is replaced by a robotic one, in perhaps a nod to Cantido Joseph Nandaba from the anime FLCL, and joins the Bomb Rush Crew in search of his roots. "Shape Da Future"Īs a refresher, Bomb Rush Cyberfunk plays pretty much exactly the way you expect a funky-fresh Jet Set Radio sequel would. Now slated for release on both Switch and PC via Steam, the game showed off a hands-on demo at the Day of the Devs booth at GDC 2023, where I had the chance to take it through its paces. It suffered a series of setbacks since then, being pushed out of its 2021 launch window as a timed Nintendo Switch exclusive in 2022, before being delayed once again in August 2022 to the vague window of summer 2023. Developer Team Reptile first announced this spiritual successor to the Jet Set Radio series (because for some reason Sega just won’t do it) back in July 2020. Do a crazy enough combo and you’ll go into Bomb Rush Mode, gaining infinite boost power.After three long years, Bomb Rush Cyberfunk is finally nearing the finish line. The more stylish you are, the more you can use this boost power to zoom through the city at top speed. Land a combo and your score will be transformed to boost power. You can string your tricks and graffiti into combos to increase your score. Hit all the targets and the sequence you make will determine the piece that shows up! Bigger size spots mean more targets to hit before the timer runs out. Once you are near a graffiti spot you can activate graffiti mode and be suspended in mid-air. Your boostpack allows you to hit even the most insane spots with ease. Features a unique trick system with grinding, sliding, wallrunning and tricking in the air as well as on the ground.Once you get enough REP you can challenge the local crew for the territory. Every neighborhood has many spots to find where you can paint graffiti.
