One talented modder has replaced Sifu's main protagonist with John Wick, giving players a chance to take on the role of the popular fictional assassin and allowing them to reenact the well-known Club scene from the original movie. Despite being a movie icon, John Wick's popularity led to the character receiving several video game spin-offs and a handful of features in other titles. The character made an explosive introduction in an exclusive heist expansion for Payday 2 before making his way to Epic Games' popular battle royale, Fortnite. In Fortnite, players could purchase and play with a John Wick outfit and participate in a limited game mode titled "Wick's Bounty" that featured its own John Wick-themed challenges and rewards.
Sifu is the first title released by Slocap since its debut martial arts-themed action roleplaying video game Absolver almost four years ago. Known as one of the most anticipated games of 2022, Sifu drops players into a playable martial arts flick, blending cinematic, quick-hitting, hand-to-hand combat with a unique, roguelike aging mechanic that heightens the challenge and keeps the action interesting. Sifu also attempts to capture the profound narrative of Chinese martial arts films. Players take the role of a Kung Fu student tasked with taking revenge by eliminating five martial arts masters who murdered their father years prior. This conflict forms the basis of Sifu's unique structure.
