Bomb Rush Cyberfunk launches August 18 for Switch and PC : TechGoggles

Bomb Rush Cyberfunk will launch for Switch and PC via Steam on August 18, followed by “other platforms” at a later date, developer Team Reptile announced.

While “other platforms” have yet to be specified, Team Reptile is likely referring to PlayStation 5, Xbox Series, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One versions. Team Reptile previously said the launch on other platforms would follow a week later, though it is unclear if that is still the case. (Update 04/20/23 at 8:00 a.m.: Team Reptile has confirmed to Gematsu that other platforms should still release “roughly one or two weeks later,” as long as “no weird platform-related issues come up.”)

Here is an overview of the game, via its Steam page:

About

Team Reptile brings you Bomb Rush Cyberfunk, one second per second of highly advanced funkstyle. In a world from the mind of Dion Koster, where self-styled crews are equipped with personal boostpacks, new heights of graffiti are reached. Start your own cypher and dance, paint, trick, face off with the cops and stake your claim to the extrusions and cavities of a sprawling metropolis in an alternate future set to the musical brainwaves of Hideki Naganuma.

Key Features

In the game you can choose a character from your crew and explore the three-dimensional streets freely.

The goal is to bomb and get your name up. Every neighborhood has many spots to find where you can paint graffiti. Once you get enough REP you can challenge the local crew for the territory.

Features a unique trick system with grinding, sliding, wallrunning and tricking in the air as well as on the ground.

You will encounter a lot of weirdos.

Graffiti

Your boostpack allows you to hit even the most insane spots with ease. Once you are near a graffiti spot you can activate graffiti mode and be suspended in mid-air. 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.

Tricks

You can string your tricks and graffiti into combos to increase your score. Land a combo and your score will be transformed to boost power. The more stylish you are, the more you can use this boost power to zoom through the city at top speed. Do a crazy enough combo and you’ll go into Bomb Rush Mode, gaining infinite boost power.
