However, many players continued to report problems with downloading and installing it, leading to SloClap offering some possible steps to take , like restarting the console, to help players finally get things working.

Though, it shouldn’t take a bunch of weird steps and restarts to simply download a game you bought.

Make no mistake, Sifu came out today.Even if some folks can’t actually download the game, it came out today.Small early access periods like this, which are locked behind more expensive editions, aren’t early access.Instead, it’s more like a weird two-day delay for anyone not willing to fork over an extra few bucks.And once the game’s out, the more expensive edition of the game loses one of its big selling points.
