Although Hi-Fi Rush was released without warning as a surprise in the Xbox catalog, it has consolidated over time as one of the most valued titles by critics and players. Now, thanks to new information gathered on LinkedIn, we know that the game was also a commercial success in several European markets, including Spain.

The information appears on the professional profile of a former Marketing Lead for Bethesda in Eastern Europe, Italy, the Nordic countries, and Spain. In his description, he details that during his tenure, he launched several commercial and critical successes, including Starfield and Hi-Fi Rush, which confirms the game’s positive impact on sales in these regions.

Hi-Fi Rush triumphed in several European markets, including Spain

Although Bethesda and Xbox never provided specific sales figures for Hi-Fi Rush, it was known that it had performed well on platforms like Steam and had been very well received on Game Pass since its release in January 2023. This new direct reference from within the European marketing team allows us to affirm that the game exceeded expectations in key territories like Spain and Italy.

Hi-Fi Rush is a third-person action game with a comic-book visual style, where the protagonist, Chai, fights to the rhythm of the music in a world controlled by a technological megacorporation. Each hit, dodge, and movement is synchronized with the soundtrack, creating a unique experience that combines rhythmic combat, offbeat humor, and vibrant aesthetics.

Paradoxically, despite its success, Tango Gameworks was one of the studios closed by Microsoft in 2024, in a decision highly criticized by the community. However, shortly after, the team was acquired by Krafton, which has given continuity to the studio with the goal of continuing to develop projects in the line of Hi-Fi Rush. Their next work remains a mystery, but interest in their future remains high. If you want to know more details about the game, you can read our analysis through the following link.
