Sifu now on Android and iOS for $8 / £6

• The mobile version costs $8 / £6.
• Sloclap says the port was built for phones, with touch controls, a custom camera, and controller support.

What happened

Sloclap has released Sifu on mobile devices, bringing the 2022 kung fu action game to Android and iOS. The studio launched the mobile version on the day of publication, following an earlier announcement earlier in the month. In the description of the official launch trailer on YouTube, Sloclap says Sifu, its 2022 martial arts action game, can now be played on smartphones, with the Android and iOS release following that earlier reveal.

The mobile version costs $8 / £6. According to Sloclap, the port was specifically developed for phone screens, with new touch controls, simplified object interactions, and a custom camera designed for smaller displays. The studio says the camera is meant to work better on compact screens, while environmental interactions have been streamlined to support touchscreen play.

Sloclap also says the mobile version includes controller support. The studio adds that Sifu’s painterly style and fluid combat were preserved in the mobile release. That means the core of the game remains recognisable, even though the interface has been adapted for phones. The source does not mention specific controller brands or device limitations, but it does confirm that controllers are supported.

The release fits into Sifu’s broader history, as the game originally launched in 2022. According to the source provided, the game was first a timed exclusive for PlayStation and the Epic Games Store before arriving on Steam and Xbox a year later. The mobile version now adds Android and iOS to that list, expanding the game’s platform availability further.

Background

Sifu originally released in 2022. The game was first a timed exclusive for PlayStation and the Epic Games Store, then later came to Steam and Xbox, according to the source provided. That means the title had already gone through a staggered rollout before the mobile version was announced.

After Sifu, Sloclap announced its next game as Rematch, a third-person football game. The source also references Absolver as the studio’s debut title, described as a martial arts MMO. In broader context, Sloclap is an independent studio based in Paris, France, known for third-person action games.

The provided source also says Rematch was critically well received and commercially successful, although the article itself does not include specific sales or review figures. It also notes that some fans had hoped for a Sifu sequel and were disappointed by the Rematch reveal, but again no hard numbers are given. For this background, the key point is that Sloclap has presented a football game as its next project after Sifu, while the studio first became known for Absolver and Sifu.
