Bomb Rush Cyberfunk
Bomb Rush Cyberfunk is a 2023 action-adventure platform video game developed and published by Team Reptile. The game was released digitally for Nintendo Switch and Windows on 18 August 2023. It was then released digitally for PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S on 1 September 2023. It was also released physically for Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 5, and Xbox One/Series X on 5 December 2023.
The player controls a member of a youth gang, the Bomb Rush Crew, as they use inline skates, skateboards, and bicycles to traverse the fictional city of New Amsterdam, spraying graffiti, challenging rival gangs, and evading authorities to control all five boroughs of the city. The cel-shaded art style, music, general gameplay, and aesthetic all draw heavy inspiration from the 2000s video games Jet Set Radio and Jet Set Radio Future, published by SEGA for their Dreamcast and Microsoft's Xbox consoles, respectively. The music for the game is composed by various indie artists, as well as notably including several tracks from Hideki Naganuma, the composer for the Jet Set Radio series.
Bomb Rush Cyberfunk received positive reviews from critics, who praised its gameplay, visuals, and soundtrack. However, they were divided on its similarity to Jet Set Radio, with some appreciating its faithfulness to its inspirations, and others calling it unoriginal, alongside criticism for its combat and simple tricking mechanics.
Team Reptile announced a follow-up entitled Hyperfunk on 19 October 2025.
The gameplay of Bomb Rush Cyberfunk involves the player traversing the fictional city of New Amsterdam on either a skateboard, inline skates, or BMX bike, and performing tricks. The player character also receives a superpowered backpack which can be used for faster traversal. Players will grind around the fictional city while placing graffiti on buildings to increase their gang's reputation (denoted in the game as REP). By increasing their REP, the player can challenge rival gangs to take control of each of the five boroughs of New Amsterdam.
Bomb Rush Cyberfunk takes place in the fictional city of New Amsterdam, where human implant technology has advanced to the point where humans are capable of switching body parts, both organically and cybernetically, at will. The city is famous for its writers (a term for graffiti artists), who perform various vandalism acts in a race to become All City (a term for an individual or group who has successfully painted over all five boroughs of New Amsterdam, making their name "known through all city"), opposed by the police force who uses all means necessary to apprehend them.
Before the start of the story, three of the best writers in New Amsterdam, known as the "Big 3", ruled over the city. They are DJ Cyber, the city's best DJ; Faux, who is infamous for having a clean criminal record despite his various vandalism acts; and Felix, who is famous for being the only writer who never used a boostpack. Among the three, Felix is known as the only person who has become All City, but shortly after, he's mysteriously killed, leaving a power vacuum and causing chaos in the city, as all five crews raced to become All City themselves.
The story revolves around the members of Bomb Rush Crew, a group of up-and-coming writers, as they aim to become All City.
