What do you get when you cross the blood, guts and chaos of Hotline Miami, with the acrobatic somersaults of My Friend Pedro? The answer is the stylishly brutal shoot ’em up known only as The Hong Kong Massacre!
Hong Kong Destruction
Available now on Xbox platforms (finally! It’s been years since the game came to PlayStation, Switch and PC storefronts), The Hong Kong Massacre sees you on a grim revenge story through the heart of Hong Kong.
Our former police detective protagonist is on the hunt for the murderers of his partner, and nobody will stand in his way. Despite coming up against dozens of enemies at once, your ability to slow down time, flip through the air, and dive at the feet of your foes will ensure you can get through each level unscathed.
That is, of course, you plan out your route through each top-down stage, dodging bullets and diving behind cover. Every bullet is lethal, and as such careful consideration for your environment is key. Progress through the game and complete challenges, and your reward will be some shiny new weapons to play with.
It’s dark, it’s gritty, but oh my does it seem a lot of fun!

Game Description
Inspired by classic action movies, The Hong Kong Massacre places you at the center of a hard-boiled revenge story, filled with brutal, cinematic shootouts and vivid underworld locations.
Take on the role of a former police detective bent on exacting vengeance for his partner’s murder and use of a mixture of raw firepower, slow-motion and dive/dodge mechanics to tear your way through the criminal ranks.
Dive through windows or dodge behind cover – every shot is lethal, so stay aware of your surroundings and exploit the environment however you can.
When the heat is on, you can slow down time and plan for the next move. Avoiding bullets whilst taking out enemies is crucial for survival – but beware, your slow-motion ability is limited: plan fast, think ahead and bring down the bad guys unscathed.
Each level features a range of challenges, allowing you to to unlock new weapons as you progress, trading bullets from restaurants to rooftops across a moody, crime-riddled city.
