Discounts
Every price cut of more than 20% we have observed, in each market that quoted one, with this game's chart position on either side of it. These are episodes, not a model: a sale is one event, and one event cannot tell you what the next one will do.
Reviews, worldwide (the counter carries no country): 0.86/day in the week to Sep 16 → 0.75/day in the week after.
For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 24 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 9 places towards #1, and the 2,419 moves with no price cut behind them went 2 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.

Top-down Hotline Miami-like. Brutal, stylish gameplay which will keep you coming back, time and time again, trying to perfectly master your way through rooms filled with different enemy types using a barrage of move sets and weapons. An excellent skill-set and weapon upgrade path letting you design your kit to best suit your play style. Kusan not only looks incredible, but has one of this years best video game soundtracks. I'm really enjoying my time with the game so far and although it can be brutally punishing at times, you will keep on hitting retry... just one more time. Great value game, well worth a sniff.
Absolutely blown away! I've been following this project for a while, and it was worth the wait! The gameplay feels like a natural evolution of games that continue Hotline Miami's legacy, such as OTXO and Hong Kong Massacre. The art, story, characters, and level designs were also top-notch! I especially love the pixel art and level layout, nothing is out of view or visually cluttered. Everyone who worked on this game should be proud of themselves! What a triumph!

Vraiment incroyable comme jeu, perso j'avais fais la démo et j'avais beaucoup aimer, après avoir fais les 2 hotline miami je cherchais des jeux dans le même style et j'étais tomber sur ce jeu j'ai vraiment aucun regret, perso je viens de finir le jeu est je go faire le 100% mais ça pars sur une reco avec grand plaisir !
Sin duda, llevo esperando muchísimo tiempo por este juego y debo decir que valió totalmente la pena. De verdad para mí, este es el verdadero Hotline Miami 3. Jueguenlo, de verdad. La historia es increíble, la banda sonora chill y fascinante, y los personajes son bastante interesantes. 10/10 me lo voy a platinar.
game is well paced, doesnt overstay its welcome and the mechanics you can really sink your teeth into. that being said, introducing 4 new combat mechanics (6 if you depending on how you define 'new') in the final fight of the game was a lot (considering everything kills you in one hit). i can see a lot of people bumping into that then realizing if they want to come back later they have to beat two floor plus the previous phase of the boss fight because there is no mid level progress save (it does save your score after every fight, just not progress) i can see some people getting phased out. still have no idea what the yellow orbs even do... i just parried my way to victory
진짜 재밌게 했습니다. 어렵지만 계속 도전하게 만드는 손맛이 있네요. 입소문 좀 더 타서 더 많은 사람들이 해봤으면 하는 바람입니다.
Just excellent. Unashamedly Hotline Miami inspired while still very much being its own thing. Gameplay is a little more reactive than active as you make your way through levels using multiple weapons to deal with multiple enemy types, requiring split-second decisions to avoid getting splattered. But the result of this is an experience that makes you feel like an absolute badass when the dust settles and you're the only one left standing. Like Hotline Miami, you die A LOT. But also like Hotline Miami you respawn instantly just eager to try again. Story is nothing remarkable but isn't bad. It's not what you're here for and the game knows that; so the plot is a pretty straightforward 90s anime/JRPG type plot that feels pleasantly familiar. KILLER soundtrack. Extremely stylish lo-fi hip hop beats with a lot of old kung fu movie flavor mixed in, and a couple of more intense electronic selections for big moments like boss fights. I actually wish the OST would get a standalone release. I'd say Kusan is a must-play if you're a fan of the Hotline Miami games; it's one of very few games since then that really scratches the same itch. My only complaints are that it's not longer, and that the soundtrack isn't streaming anywhere.
Хотлайн майями с очень крутой переделанной боевой системой. Система прокачки здесь как никогда к месту если вы сомневаетесь в этом. Музыка идет под бит геймплея и твоих нажатых кнопок, на экране резня а в ушах лютый кайф, давно не слышал таких крутых песен, надеюсь в скором времени получится найти полный плейлист всех песен этой игры. Игра проходится достаточно быстро (если у вас уже был подобный опыт), но вы не пожалеете. Главное просто не бойтесь врагов, идите напролом(буквально) и тогда игра раскроется как нежный цветок с шипами. Я наелся
通关了，高速的战斗，极具风格化的画面与简单明快的剧情节奏都很对我的口味。 主要有两个遗憾的点，一是美术方面的问题，二是硬塞进来的boss战与飞车关。 画面设计上很遗憾，没能做到像武士零那样在保持风格华丽的同时还能对敌人有着极高的辨识度，很多场合就是用命来摸出来的敌人的配置，尤其是在追求高分的一次次replay里经常会因为视觉上没反应过来导致漏杀错杀而带来很严重的负反馈。 为什么我会说boss战和飞车关是硬塞进来的呢，因为boss战是单纯计算血量的，虽然有一定的交互和机制，但跟武士零对比没有最后打另一位老兵那种很明显的阶段切换，尤其在战斗中用铁拳格挡boss攻击时没有那种卡肉感。对，平时打小兵不需要，但是跟boss对打是很需要这种卡肉感来体现双方力量对比的，在过场动画里对拳其实有这种动画上的强调，实际游玩中就消失了，非常非常非常遗憾。而飞车关对比起之前的关卡来说没有需要计算的连杀，创也不能直接创死小兵而只是让对方失衡，可以说是整个游戏里 最 无聊的一个游玩阶段。 希望游戏制作组后续能增加一定的辅助功能（比如武士零里的减速时间），以及改进场景内的敌人视觉反馈，我还是挺喜欢这个游戏的。
哇勒 好難，打王期間不能失誤...希望能出個寶寶模式，雖然已經破關了 還有第二章那個boss，角色沒有位移技能有點像在靠運氣通關
