Aging kung fu brawler Sifu has arrived on Steam
Sifu dates its Arenas expansion and Steam release in a reference-filled trailer
Martial arts brawler Sifu has put a date on its upcoming Arenas expansion and Steam release: March 28th. We’ve known about the free update since last April’s roadmap, but developer Sloclap have finally released a trailer detailing the new modes in the expansion. All very exciting stuff for fans of the kickpunching adventure, although, if you’re my kind of nerd, you likely got a kick out of all the film references in the trailer.
Sifu release date set for Steam and Xbox alongside Arenas update
Sloclap has announced a release date for Sifu on Steam and Xbox consoles.
The game will drop on March 28 alongside the game’s Arenas update.
With ten extra hours of gameplay with nine new locations, Arenas features 45 new challenges spread over five game modes. You will fight waves of enemies in Survival mode, or be pushed to perfection in Performance mode.
Kickpunching brawler Sifu is coming to Steam in March
Martial art fest Sifu will make its way to Steam in March 2023 together with a new free update, devs Sloclap have revealed. From the snippets Sloclap have shown, the update will have a new arenas mode that seems to be similar to combat challenge maps from the Arkham series. A new patch, 1.16, has also gone live for Sifu today to duff up some pesky crashes and bugs, although patch notes haven’t been released yet. You can watch the teaser for the arenas mode update below.

As reported by Deadline, Story Kitchen’s Dmitri M. Johnson will produce the film along with Kolstad, Mike Goldberg, Dan Jevons and Timothy I. Stevenson.
If you are unfamiliar with Sifu, it centers around a tale of revenge.
Martial Arts Game Sifu is Being Resurrected Into a Movie
Those who plays video games may recall a game from earlier this year (or, if you have a Nintendo Switch, a month ago) by the name of Sifu. Developed by Sloclap of Absolver fame, the roguelike simultaneously garnered solid reviews for its combat and criticism for how it incorporated Chinese culture and languages. Now…
John Wick’s creator is writing a movie based on ‘Sifu’
John Wick creator Derek Kolstad is working on yet another videogame adaptation. Fresh off the news that he’s writing and producing a Streets of Rage film, it emerged that Kolstad is taking on the same duties for a live-action movie based on Sifu.
Kolstad and his partners at media company Story Kitchen have teamed up with Sifu developer and publisher Sloclap, as Deadline reports. The beat-’em-up proved a hit when it was released in February, as it sold a million copies in three weeks — despite Elden Ring and Horizon Forbidden West arriving at around the same time. What makes Sifu stand out from the pact is that every time the protagonist dies in their quest for vengeance, they get older but their enemies stay the same age.
That hook alone gives a screenwriter a lot of intriguing possibilities. The one vs. many aspect of Sifu seems right up Kolstad’s alley as well, given his experience with the John Wick franchise and Nobody. As if all that wasn’t enough, Kolstad is also behind Netflix’s Splinter Cell, an upcoming animated series based on Ubisoft’s games.
