Blasting away at enemies while manoeuvring slower than your typical FPS protagonist feels odd at first, but Robocop not being able to crouch, mantle, or climb forced me to know when to take bullet fire and when to think more tactically. What follows is a bloodbath’s worth of gang shootouts, snappy one-liners and handgun auto targeting. Before you know it, Robocop is called to the scene as the only officer equipped to enter the building. Set between the events of the Robocop 2 and 3, events begin when a group of punks take over the local news tower and hold the staff hostage. Robocop: Rogue City wastes no time putting you in the hot seat. And while I admit, I’m not as brushed up on my Robocop lore as I am the other 80s sci-fi series with a cyborg at the centre of it, from the three hours I recently played, Robocop: Rogue City is another win for the fans, utilising increased scope, deep RPG mechanics and improved visuals to truly realise the concept of Paul Verhoeven’s original movie in video game form.

I’m pretty sure I’m the only games journalist on the planet that truly loved 2019’s Terminator: Resistance. The first trailer for the game has been released, giving us a look at what we can expect.Robocop diehards finally get the game they deserve with a rough-around-the-edges shooter that is equal parts charming and clunky. And could lead to the game becoming the quintessential videogame title featuring the character. This alone will raise the enjoyment levels quite considerably. But more to the point, Peter Weller, Robocop himself from the first two movies has returned to lend his likeness and his voice as Robo once again. The game, ‘Robocop: Rogue City’ looks as if it will tie in with the movie franchise nicely. Developer Teyon and publisher Nacon will be bringing us a brand new First-person shooter game in June of 2023 featuring the character. And let’s be honest, hardly any of them were any good. Over the years, the ‘Robocop.’ franchise has seen several games created for the cyborg hero. Dead or alive, you’re coming with Robocop as the first trailer for Teyon and Nacon’s first-person shooter game arrives! Robocop: Rogue City arrives in 2023!
