Developer Team Reptile has announced that the upcoming spiritual successor to Jet Set Radio, Bomb Rush Cyberfunk, will launch on August 18 for Nintendo Switch and PC via Steam. The developer also claims the game will launch on “other platforms” “roughly one or two weeks later.” A release date trailer was also revealed.
The game’s details:
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.
