SIFU reappears with a gameplay trailer full of martial arts and fighting, but it is delayed until 2022

In this beat ’em up we will grow old each time we are killed, becoming wiser and more experienced.

SIFU , the martial arts game developed by the creators of Absolver , has a new trailer that was shown on today’s State of Play . In the video, we can see in better detail the interesting mechanics on which all the gameplay of the title is based, and we also finally know that it will be available at the beginning of the following year .

Instead of making you weaker, getting older will make you stronger and wiser.The gameplay of SIFU is similar to that seen in Absolver, but instead of being like a fighting title, here you will notice more action in the style of the beat ’em up genre . Martial arts will be the essence of every battle, but the protagonist’s magic pendant will also play a very important role. You can revive each time you die, but the character will age quite a bit each time this happens. However, and unlike what many will think, adding years to the protagonist will not make him weaker, but will learn new techniques to use in battles.

And what is the game about? We will control a young student of martial arts, with the sole objective of taking revenge on the murderers who killed his entire family. The story will take us through various Chinese suburbs, as we grapple with themes of revenge and redemption. One by one, we will eliminate those responsible for these deaths.
