Released last February 8, Sifu has received critical praise for a refined combat system and for some interesting gameplay stunts, such as the one linked to the aging of the protagonist with each death. However, as we explain in our review, it is also a game with a difficulty calibrated upwards and the statistics revealed today by Sloclap confirm this:
- Altogether over 10 million hours have been played.
- More than 45% of players have completed the challenging second level of the game.
- Over 150,000 players have mastered kung fu enough to beat Yang, the main antagonist.
“We are thrilled with Sifu’s welcome from both fans and the press,” reads the press release signed by executive producer Pierre Tarno. “We set out to create an authentic kung fu action game that pays homage to our favorite films. We are grateful for our fans around the world, but we are particularly honored by the incredible reception the game has had in China. Our internal metric for determining the success of the game is knowing how successful it has been in this country and that Chinese players represent the largest sales segment outside of North America. The positive reviews from Chinese critics mean a lot to us. “
