Hack-n-Slash Furi comes to Playstation 4 in 2016

FIGHT YOUR WAY FREE IN HACK-AND-SLASH FURI, COMING TO PLAYSTATION 4 AND PC IN 2016

From the Indie Team The Game Bakers and Afro Samurai’s Takashi Okazaki Comes This Frenzied All-Boss Fighter

French indie studio The Game Bakers have pulled back the curtain on Furi, their upcoming combat game slated for release on PlayStation 4 and PC in 2016.

Furi feeds on the tension of one-on-one fights against deadly adversaries. It’s an intense, ultra-responsive hack-and-slash with a unique mix of fast-paced sword fighting and dual-stick shooting. Each of the formidable guardians—designed by Afro Samurai creator Takashi Okazaki—has a unique and surprising combat style that requires focus and skill to defeat. Defeat one boss after another to escape this surreal prison and discover what’s waiting behind the last gate. The high-energy action gets a boost from an explosive soundtrack composed by up-and-coming electro musicians including Carpenter Brut, who created the trailer’s theme.

You were captured. Look what they’ve done to you… time to wake up!

The jailer is the key, kill him and you’ll be free.

“I have long dreamed of making a game of pure boss fights, with a focus on dueling and besting enemies who rival your own skill and strength,” says Creative Director Emeric Thoa. “Furi is designed with Japanese action games in mind — games that reward skills and reflexes, with a character that reacts immediately, like Devil May Cry, any game from Platinum, or even the Super Punch Out series.”

The Game Bakers will be available for interviews to discuss Furi at Paris Game Week from  Tuesday October 27th to Thursday 29th. Please email Audrey Leprince audrey@thegamebakers.com to make an appointment!
