When synced up with 808, he can also create what it seems to be colorful shockwave blasts and even beams of energy at the end of strings and attacks.
It somewhat acts as his "sixth sense", as he can feel the beat of his entire environment as if the world is a musical score, allowing him to time his movement when traversing through dangerous areas, read his opponents' movements and evade any of their attacks, parry said attacks, and more. With Chai's MP3 player embedded in his chest, he envisions the entire world to the time signature of his current song. His most notable ability are the self-entitled "musical robots powers". Additionally, he can use a Magnet Link with his arm implant to attach and deatach himself from magnetic materials. Chai will see the grabber as an actual guitar after defeating a boss, or during gameplay with an A ranking or higher. It can be released to attract scraps of metal to the grabber, giving it a form reminiscent of a guitar and allowing it to be used as a light, but powerful blunt weapon.
Powers and abilities Ĭhai possesses a LX-DUST75 Project Armstrong arm implant with a trash grabber inside. This resulted in the MP3 player becoming embedded in his power core, giving him, in his own words, "musical robot powers". However, this ended up going sideways as his MP3 player that was tossed aside by Kale Vandelay himself (unknowingly) landed on his chest just as he was about to get his implant. Sometime after dropping out of college, Chai became interested in getting a robotic implant from Project Armstrong to replace his disabled right arm and to finally become a rockstar, but Vandelay's assessment of his profile would have landed him on simple garbage pickup duty. Though this makes him a terrifyingly competent fighter, it occasionally makes him zone out, interacting with the world as if it's a stage he is performing to. Despite a lack of achievements, Chai at first acts as if he is the center of attention due to his fear of rejection and inferiority, but through his newfound friends, he eventually grows out of his selfishness and develops a surprising amount of empathy and emotional maturity.ĭue to the music player implanted in his chest, almost everything in Chai's perspective of the world is synchronized to a musical beat. Though not particularly intelligent and rather self-centered, this also makes him adaptable to many unfortunate situations, even if he causes most of them. Personality ĭescribed as a slacker with larger-than-life ambitions, Chai is quite laid-back, witty, and easygoing. The Deluxe Edition outfits don't have an unlock requirement and are available immediately at the start of the game, however, other DLC outfits need the customization screen unlocked previously. While the hospital gown is exclusive to its respective segment and cannot be worn anywhere else in the game, the shark costume is available as one of Chai's purchasable costumes under the name "Shark Set".Ĭhai unlocks a number of different outfits and guitars after beating the game once as well as permanently gaining the Vandelay pin on his default outfit, changing his attire for both gameplay and (most) cutscenes.
During Track 9: Take the Stage, Chai temporarily wears a blue shark costume. He also wears blue jeans with grey stripes and grey-and-white sneakers with red soles.ĭuring the beginning segment of Track 1: A Fresh Start up until recovering his regular clothes, Chai wears a hospital gown.
Within his heart is a MP3 Player that makes everything synced to the beat for him.Ĭhai's default outfit consist of a yellow-and-orange jacket, with a t-shirt donning a white lightning bolt. Chai's robotic implant is primarily a mechanical arm from Project Armstrong, possessing grey-and-red highlights with four fingers. He wears a red scarf (originally a sling before getting his new arm) with a blue button and a smiling face button centered near his neck. Labeled a defect, Chai will have to rely on his pals, including his mechanical cat assistant 808, to fight back against the megacorp looking to "recall" him." ―Character profile on the Hi-Fi Rush websiteĬhai is an average height person with brown hair and brown eyes. A slacker with larger-than-life ambitions, Chai's life is turned upside down when a botched corporate experiment accidently gives him musical robot powers.
