We don’t see too many shadow drops in the video game industry, but when it happens, there’s plenty of hype built up immediately to try these games out. For instance, Hi-Fi Rush was a game that dropped back in January of this year. Best of all, you could enjoy it through the Xbox Game Pass subscription service.
