“Barrack Fu” Announced as Free DLC for “Shaq Fu”

Shaq Fu: A Legend Reborn  released on June 5, 2018. Developed by Big Deez and published by Mad Dog Games, it stands as a sequel to 1994’s Shaq Fu. The game received mixed reviews, but let’s be honest with ourselves. No one walked into this one expecting Arthur Miller, right? It’s a beat ’em up, plain and simple. The game once again brings in former NBA all-star Shaquille O’Neal, just like it’s predecessor. But this one has come with a surprise twist. There’s another game inside starring (a parody of) the 44th President of the United States, Barrack Obama. That’s right kids, it’s time to suit up for Barrack Fu: The Adventures of Dirty Barry.

Barrack Fu

This is a secret bonus game hidden in all physical copies of the recently-released Shaq Fu: A Legend Reborn. Mr. Obama didn’t endorse this game by any means; it’s just (again) a parody of 44. In this story, the bad guy is taking out celebrities. When no one else is up to the task, Dirty Barry gets the call!

Can You Smell What Barrack is Cooking?

This 21st century Shaq Fu is more of a beat ’em up compared to the original. Barrack Fu continues the barrage with drone strikes, assault rifles, machine guns, rail guns, shotguns, and grenades. You’ll also have an arsenal power moves at your disposal like Barry’s “Barrack ‘n Rolla” and the “South Side Smash.” It’s all of the no-holds-barred action you can handle as the ex-POTUS-on-notice takes on politicians, robots (although those may be the same thing), clones, hackers, rappers, and much more.

Barrack Fu

Will 44 Deliver?

All-in-all this is may look like your standard, over-the-top button masher from the outside-in, but who can say no to dishing out some POTUS level of destruction with the impunity of our (parodied) former Commander in Chief? Barrack Fu: The Adventures of Dirty Barry is available today for free to all gamers who purchased a physical copy of Shaq Fu: A Legend Reborn.
