The critically-acclaimed once-Xbox console exclusive game Hi-Fi Rush is now available on PS5. Hi-Fi Rush was one of 2023's surprise hits, shadow-dropped to rave reviews last year. Developed by Tango Gameworks, Hi-Fi Rush is a stylish action game with a unique rhythm-based combat and movement system. It earned a great deal of praise for its originality and sense of humor, with it ultimately becoming one of the highest-rated games in a year full of landmark releases.

Of course, those on Xbox have the option of playing Hi-Fi Rush through Xbox Game Pass, but $29.99 is still a great price for such a high-quality game.
It will be interesting to see how well Hi-Fi Rush performs on the PS5, and if that inspires Xbox to bring it to even more platforms. There have been rumors that Hi-Fi Rush could be coming to the Switch 2 as well, though official plans to that effect have yet to be announced. Nintendo has yet to even announce the Switch console, and so it will still be quite some time before fans know what games are in the works for the device.
In the meantime, Xbox is bringing even more of its games to PS5 in the near future. Pentiment is already available, but Grounded and Sea of Thieves are coming to Xbox in April. Grounded will launch for PS4, PS5, and Switch on April 16, while Sea of
