Today's Xbox Games Showcase Extended 2023 event revealed that the superb Xbox Game Pass title Hi-Fi RUSH is getting a massive free update on July 5th known as the Arcade Challenge Update.
This will introduce two new game modes, which are described as follows:
"The new BPM RUSH mode tasks players to battle waves of enemies to music with a steadily increasing BPM or beats per minute. As you defeat each wave and tackle toughened-up new foes, the BPM will speed up to the next level, up to a whopping 200 BPM!
In Power Up! Tower Up!, players take on the Rhythm Tower challenge with a new twist. Power Up! Tower Up! introduces Upgrades and Bugs between rounds – Upgrades boost Chai’s stats and provide other helpful boons, but at the cost of a lowered score multiplier. Bugs, meanwhile, boost your score potential and get you closer to those stylish S-Ranks…but at a cost."
In addition, the update introduces new Special Attacks, challenges, cosmetics, Photo Mode features, secrets and more! It sounds like an absolutely fantastic addition to the game, and the best part is that it's totally FREE!
