Indie studio Sloclap,\u00a0also behind the hand-to-hand combat game\u00a0Absolver<\/em>, announced its next game\u00a0Sifu<\/em><\/strong>, at Sony’s State of Play event.<\/p>\n

Whereas\u00a0Absolver\u00a0<\/em>is an online multiplayer game, Sloclap is trying its hands at a single-player campaign with\u00a0Sifu<\/em>, though both feature enticing hand-to-hand and martial arts combat. From the French development studio and backed by the indie gaming fund Kowloon Nights<\/a>,\u00a0Sifu\u00a0<\/em>moves players away from the Adal Empire in\u00a0Absolver\u00a0<\/em>and to China where the art of kung fu originates. Apparently, one of the game’s designers, Jordan Layani, specializes in Bak Mei Kung Fu.<\/p>\n

Throughout the Sony State of Play trailer<\/a>, players can see the protagonist aging from\u00a0a young adult to that of an old man. In\u00a0Sifu<\/em>,\u00a0<\/em>age will have an impact on death and revival thanks to the pendant around the protagonist’s neck. Each time the player dies, they’ll be revived slightly older, turning them from a beginner into a master, where the game gets its name. In an interview with IGN, Layani details that the term “gung fu”\u00a0<\/em>actually means mastery by practicing. Kung fu can only be learned by practicing a lot, Layani explains.<\/p>\n
