At first glance, Bomb Rush Cyberfunk appears as a funky and light-hearted amalgamation of various genres, taking heavy inspiration from Sega's Jet Set Radio. Team Reptile paints a vivid picture of the game, where "self-styled graffiti crews equipped with personal boostpacks" engage in street battles for control.

Cyberfunk is a vibrant “funkstyle” game, featuring characters with machine heads in jumpsuits, colourful graffiti strewn across the futuristic cityscape, and flashy dance-offs applauded by an engaged audience. Most notably, the game boasts seamless movement through the streets and alleyways, where characters can effortlessly traverse the environment using skateboards, rollerblades, and boost packs, soaring and navigating with flamboyant precision.

However, the promotional trailers introduce a layer of mystery and eeriness to the game. Amidst the oppressive presence of militarised police, a six-eyed figure towers over the protagonist, imposing and faceless.

Bomb Rush Cyberfunk was originally scheduled for release last year. However, the developers made the decision to delay the game's launch, stating, "We are convinced that releasing the game this year [2022] will not take it to a level where we would be personally satisfied with."

Now, the wait is almost over! If you are waiting for Bomb Rush Cyberfunk's console release, mark your calendars for 1 September, and get ready to explore the five boroughs of Team Reptile's New Amsterdam!
