Limited Run Games, in collaboration with the Hi-Fi Rush team, has announced a special re-release for the rhythm-action title from Tango Gameworks. The Hi-Fi Rush Rhythm Edition will open for pre-orders from January 16 to March 1 and will be released for Xbox Series X|S and PS5. This edition bundles the game’s Deluxe version with three DLC outfits—Bossplay, Traditional Garb, and Teamplay—giving players immediate access to a curated set of cosmetic options from the start.
For collectors seeking more, the Hi-Fi Rush Smidge Edition expands on the Rhythm Edition by including the same Deluxe game and outfits, plus a three-disc soundtrack, developer notes, and a custom box designed after the tutorial robot that guides players early in the game. It also unlocks a range of in-game skins and gear upgrades. The Smidge Edition is priced at $69.99 and will be available for pre-order during the same window as the Rhythm Edition.
The top-tier option is the Project Armstrong Edition, which stacks everything in Smidge and adds a large bundle of physical collectibles: an 808 plush, a small replica of Chai's guitar, a Chai Project Armstrong pass, a glow-in-the-dark MP3 player pin, a hardcover art book, and an individually numbered certificate of authenticity. This edition also includes the Smidge contents and is priced at $174.99. All three editions share the same pre-order window.
Pricing details place the Rhythm Edition at $39.99, the Smidge Edition at $69.99, and the Project Armstrong Edition at $174.99. Each version is slated for the Xbox Series X|S and PS5 platforms when the re-release launches, and Limited Run Games lists the pre-order period across the board.
Hi-Fi Rush arrived abruptly in 2023 to widespread critical acclaim, establishing a strong identity for Tango Gameworks within a compact, high-energy package. The broader corporate history surrounding the game includes Microsoft’s later restructuring of studios, including the reported shutdown of Tango Gameworks due to leadership changes after Shinji Mikami’s departure. Krafton subsequently acquired the team, and the publisher has since framed itself as an AI-first company. These developments provide context for the re-release and the decision to offer extensive, collectible editions for fans and newcomers alike. Eurogamer reports on the game’s enduring momentum and the studio’s ongoing transition as part of the broader industry narrative.
A Hi-Fi Rush trailer is available for fans to preview the re-release package and its extras. Further details and pre-order information are expected to be posted by Limited Run Games on its site.
