Recently, the official team behind the third-person cyberpunk action game SPINE - This is Gun Fu announced that the game's wishlist count has surpassed 600,000. The development team expressed their gratitude to players worldwide and joked that players are already gearing up for the game's release next summer.
Many players are highly optimistic about the game's gun-fu combat design and eagerly anticipate its performance in the final release. However, some worry that with so many similar shooters on the market, SPINE - This is Gun Fu might turn out to be just another mediocre, assembly-line product. Others pointed out that wishlist numbers don't necessarily translate directly into actual sales, as many users add games to their wishlists on a whim and may not purchase them upon release.
SPINE - This is Gun Fu is scheduled for release in summer 2027 on PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X|S. Set in a dark, sprawling metropolis of the future, the story follows Redline, a street artist whose brother is kidnapped by a powerful corporation and a dictatorial AI, prompting her to embark on an adventure to resist these oppressive forces. The core combat focuses on gun-fu, seamlessly blending firearm shooting with close-quarters melee combat for a fast-paced and exhilarating experience.
