Sifu is a punishing kung fu brawler about avenging your murdered family. Precise blocking, dodging and countering drive the combat, and every death ages you, raising the stakes with each attempt.

The First Berserker: Khazan

Challenging difficulty

A punishing soulslike set in the Dungeon & Fighter universe, where the betrayed general Khazan seeks revenge through weighty, precise melee combat and brutal boss duels. Its striking cel-shaded look and aggressive parry-and-stamina system set it apart.

Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance

Timing and reflexes matter (parrying, dodging)

A blistering PlatinumGames hack-and-slash where cyborg ninja Raiden parries and freely slices enemies apart with Blade Mode. Over-the-top boss fights and a legendary metal soundtrack make it a cult classic.

Phantom Blade Zero

Lavish presentation

A blistering kung fu action game set in a dark 'Kungfupunk' world, where the dying assassin Soul unravels a conspiracy through fast, parry-heavy blade combat. Its fights feel like choreographed wuxia cinema.

Devil May Cry 5

Lavish presentation

A blistering stylish-action showcase where three wildly different demon hunters chain combos and weapon swaps to chase the highest style rank. Over-the-top cutscenes, a pumping soundtrack and deep mechanical mastery make it a genre benchmark.

Ghostrunner

Challenging difficulty

A blisteringly fast first-person parkour slasher where one hit kills you and you wall-run, deflect bullets and slice enemies apart as a cyber-ninja. Constant death-and-retry loops set to a pounding synthwave score turn every arena into a precise reflex puzzle.

Devil May Cry 4

Challenging difficulty

A fast, flashy hack-and-slash where Nero's Devil Bringer arm lets you yank enemies around and chain outrageous combos, with Dante returning with his switchable fighting styles. The style ranking system rewards variety and precision, giving it huge mastery depth.

Thymesia

Action-packed real-time combat

A fast, punishing soulslike where you play plague doctor Corvus, relying on precise parries and dodges and on the disease powers of plundered weapons. Combat rewards aggression over turtling, set in a grim, decaying kingdom.

Ghostrunner II

Challenging difficulty

Ghostrunner II is a blisteringly fast first-person slasher where you wallrun, grapple and slice through a ruined cyberpunk world as a cyber ninja. One hit kills, so precision and reflexes are rewarded; new additions include motorbike sections and bigger boss fights.

Doom Eternal

Lavish presentation

A blisteringly fast shooter that forces you to keep moving and treat every demon as a resource, carving out ammo, armor and health with the chainsaw, flame belch and glory kills. Paired with a crushing metal soundtrack, its fights play out like a violent dance through hordes of demons.
