This is the kind of game I would dream about as a kid/teen. Big fan of Oldboy, The Raid, and Bruce Lee films so this is right up my alley (or hallway), can't wait to play it on PC.

This looks really cool, definitely keeping this on my radar. When I saw the hallway in the trailer I was hoping it would be exactly the type of game that it is.

To be fair, that scene of one person going through a hallway and destroying a group of thugs is both in Oldboy, The Raid, and hell, you could even argue Daredevil. So one could argue that scene could have been inspired from a lot of places.
And in a ton of the 80s/90s martial arts movies they're likely using as reference. Long Arm of the Law 3 has a great one

It looks great, superb animation combined with destructible enviroments, count me in.

Only downside is that the sounds effects for the punches and kicks seem kinda weak. Needs quite a bit more of 'oomph' for my taste.

Instant buy. So excited for this. Couldn't get into absolver but the combat looks great.

This looks sick! It's like an evolution of the beat em up genre and you can see the similarities to Absolver all over this.

This game looks really cool, and I'm looking forward to seeing more of it! Really dig the art style, and as a sucker for martial arts films and games, I'm keeping an eye on this one for sure!

Looks cool. Did Absolver's battle system actually pan out? It had a decent amount of hype among gaming enthusiasts, and then I got the feeling it under-delivered?

As a Brazilian, I will never get over this game's title.

I was initially hyped, but tbh, the combat system in Absolver was so terribly slow and boring...most fights felt like a huge cheesefest...

I would have loved some character customization, but I understand why having a protag with this narrative is the best choice. I'm in day one.

Oh shit, the Absolver team made this? It looked great but that has me even more excited knowing the combat will definitely be well done.

Very promising. I find absolver very interesting. I don't like it that much, but I feel like I could talk about it for hours. This game looks like they learned a lot from absolver. Like a whole lot of everything.

The animations look both impressive and completely off at the same time. Strange.

It is like it looks good, but something about when it actually impacts looks weightless.

On another note: We need more martial arts games!
