Back at the beginning of this year, fans of the rhythm-based action game โ€œHi-Fi Rushโ€ were dealt a blow when it was announced that Microsoft was closing the gameโ€™s studio, Tango Gameworks.

On an incredible turn of fortune, Krafton Inc., the developer of the globally popular game PUBG, has now saved the day.

Now, with Kraftonโ€™s acquisition of Tango Gameworks, the future is more promising than ever for both โ€œHi-Fi Rushโ€ and its creative team.

PUBG Makers Save the Hi-Fi Rush Beat

Tango Gameworksโ€”the Xbox studio responsible for โ€œHi-Fi Rushโ€ and the horror series โ€œThe Evil Withinโ€โ€”once dangled in uncertainty when the word went out that Microsoft was going to close it.

Fans were devastated by the news, especially those who enjoyed how weirdly distinct and full of energy โ€œHi-Fi Rushโ€ is. To lose the chances of a sequel or any new content for the game would be quite hard to digest.

But then, just when all hope seemed lost, something intervenedโ€”the giant that is Krafton Inc., of PUBG fame.

Excitingly, Krafton acquired Tango Gameworks, ensuring that its creative house of talent emerged from the struggle unscathed.

This acquisition ensures not only the future of โ€œHi-Fi Rushโ€ but also ushers in a new and exciting slate of projects from the team at Tango Gameworks.

In short, a couple of Kraftonโ€™s resources with the creativity from Tango Gameworks, and you have a match made in gaming heaven. There is every reason for fans to be rather excited about what is to come.

Worth noting, however, is that other games developed by Tango Gameworks, like โ€œThe Evil Within,โ€ will remain under Microsoftโ€™s umbrella.

Therefore, the fans have nothing to be concerned about; their favorite spooky games arenโ€™t going anywhere.

Now, this rollercoaster of feelings that tumbled in right after the news regarding the closure of Tango Gameworks has come down to a sense of optimism and excitement; the future brightens up for both โ€œHi-Fi Rushโ€ and its creators, and who knows, maybe a โ€œHi-Fi Rush 2โ€ is already in the works.

For Krafton, this acquisition of Tango Gameworks is not simply a business deal; it is more of a strategic move toward the expansion of its gaming portfolio.

With Tango Gameworks in its fold, Krafton will be able to break into genres other than battle royaleโ€”into the rhythm-action game genre and many others that Tango Gameworks could pursue.

This purchase should come as a huge relief to the fans of โ€œHi-Fi Rush.โ€ As a follow-up to this game, which had gained a large following due to its ultra-unique gameplay and catchy soundtrack, the support of some major gaming companies ensures fans that it is here to stay. For fans, this means further updates, new content, and possibly even a sequel in the line.

With the backing of Krafton, Tango Gameworks is on the verge of a new journey. The studio is already known for working on games that are somewhat different; now, with all the tools and backing at its side, it can find new ways of creativity.

Be it the continuation of the legacy left by โ€œHi-Fi Rushโ€ or exploring completely new genres, the future is all bright in front of Tango Gameworks.

The acquisition of Tango Gameworks by Krafton is, therefore, mutually beneficial to both parties. The fans are looking forward to more content from their favorite game, โ€œHi-Fi Rush,โ€ while the latter will keep making innovations and creations with the support of a resource-rich company. Itโ€™s a tale where all good guys win, and bright vistas await both โ€œHi-Fi Rushโ€ and Tango Gameworks.
