Sifu developer SloClap has finally spilled the beans on its plans for 2022. Four major updates are locked in for the PlayStation 5 and PlayStation 4 brawler, offering difficulty settings, gameplay modifiers, a new arena mode, and more.
The first of these four updates arrives next week, on the 3rd May. It brings the aforementioned difficulty options — brand new easy and hard modes — while also adding advanced training, and the ability to change the main character's outfit.
The next three updates arrive in the summer, autumn, and winter.
It's great to see that SloClap is keen to add so much stuff to what is already a very good game. Sifu released back in February, and its commitment to challenging martial arts gameplay attracted a lot of positive attention (before Elden Ring came along and completely dominated the conversation).
Will you be returning to Sifu for these updates? Be like water in the comments section below.

Great updates for free. Glad I waited on the physical steel book release next week
So happy to learn of difficulty options on the way. I may finally be able to actually play it!
This game needed some tweaking bad. Some sections were so badly balanced it made Elden Ring look like a children’s game.
Just bought Lego SW over this, this may have swayed me if I'd seen it earlier.
I've been patiently waiting for the physical release to play. Can't wait.
@The_Pixel_King. You actually gonna play it now.because of a easy option.come on playa.i been playing hard games since the 1980s.and i welcome hard games.no games is too hard for me.im playing one of my favorite games ever in nioh 2 with all the dlcs.its a addictive game.sifu is excellent also.word up son
I hope there'll be some new trophies with the updates, I'd be very keen to revisit it then.
@playstation1995 I was joking… with a hint of truth! 😂
I dropped off playing this after I reviewed it, I'd feel like a fraud if I finished the last level on a lower difficulty, but man is this game tough!
Good to see someone is listening. Now if only Elden Ring will listen to people and add a difficulty option.
Love that quality Roadmap. I'd be just as keen seeing it written on a napkin tho.
@The_Pixel_King. Ok.Word up son
@Tasuki It has a difficulty option, it's called levelling up and weapon scaling; if you're struggling, just grind some xp like many RPGs!
Stifu on the other hand, yeah that's just damn hard.
I bought this game ages ago & never played it due to the difficulty so this is good
@Tasuki no fromsoftware games will never have a difficulty option you can forget about it. Elden ring is easy! You just level up. Sifu on the other hand is up there with cuphead as the most difficult game I've ever played.
@Tasuki chat code for Elden ring, summon a friend who has multiple builds, one at a lower level. Have them drop you a few weapons, then take you to a farm site. Turn on a podcast and farm levels until you are about 50. Now you are overpowered and have an advantage.
It felt like cheating but I would have never gotten off the ground without the help.
@Ryany why can’t I tell if the level 2 boss is going for the low sweep!!!! Got damn it. Games hard but fun. Can’t beat him lower than age 50 😩
Glad they added a difficulty option. I don’t have a lot of time to play so I could never get into a good groove with this game. I made it to the 3rd section but ended up stopping because I just kept dying. It made Returnal seem like a cakewalk.
This is great news, very much looking forward to the difficulty options and the other misc updates!
I actually broke my dualsense controller trying to get through the second level of sifu. Gave up on it and went back to Returnal for a break 😂 will definitely come back to sifu now there is an option to make it a little easier.
