Tango Gameworks was acquired by Krafton, retaining Hi-Fi Rush IP and half of its staff.

Shinji Mikami, founder of Tango Gameworks, believed the success of Hi-Fi Rush would protect the studio from closure. Despite this, Microsoft shut it down earlier this year. Fortunately, PUBG publisher Krafton acquired Tango Gameworks, retaining the Hi-Fi Rush IP and about half of its staff. Mikami expressed relief over the acquisition and emphasized that creating quality games is vital for a studio's survival. A sequel to Hi-Fi Rush has yet to be announced.
