Teyon blends bloody linear shootouts with light open world action for an entertaining, if unadventurous, RoboCop experience.
Hopefully, updates will stamp out these issues because RoboCop: Rogue City provides a respectable adventure that feels like a long-lost shooter of the early 2010s in mostly good ways. Admittedly, the license carries the game through its rougher patches; if you’re not a RoboCop fan, the adventure may feel dated or buggy compared to other shooters. But as a B-tier love letter to the tin man in blue, Rogue City is a nice return to the limelight for Alex Murphy.
RoboCop: Rogue City is a methodical shooter that makes you feel like Old Detroit’s greatest crime fighter, but it errs when its devotion to authenticity wanes.

3DNews | Денис Щенников | 7.5 / 10 | 11-19-2023 | Half blockbuster, half indie, all great shooter. | Read review |
Attack of the Fanboy | Davi Braid | 4 / 5 stars | 10-31-2023 | Despite a few things that might feel off, Robocop: Rogue City is likely the closest we’ll ever get to the original movie. Like Robocop, the game has a few issues but ultimately gets the job done. | Read review |
BaziCenter | Mohammad Talebian | 6 / 10 | 11-07-2023 | Despite being the best game in the RoboCop universe, the fun and excitement are soon shadowed by frustration as broken shooting mechanisms and dull overall gameplay experience bite in. | Read review |
But Why Tho? | Jason Flatt | 7.5 / 10 | 10-31-2023 | RoboCop Rogue City’s level of emersion is impressive, and the mechanics like crouching that it removes from the modern FPS formula don’t feel missed in the one-man-army, high-octane firefights that make up the core of the game. | Read review |
Capsule Computers | Admir Brkic | 7 / 10 | 11-09-2023 | RoboCop: Rogue City offers engaging story, immersive gameplay and a lot of side content that’s unfortunately overshadowed by bad optimization and occasional stutters. | Read review |
CGMagazine | Andrew Farrell | 9 / 10 | 10-31-2023 | When looked at as a whole, RoboCop: Rogue City is a shockingly complete package with terrific gameplay and level design that offers room for player agency. Its presentation belies its budget in spots (although the actual levels and pieces of geometry are solid), but this is some of the most fun I’ve had gaming this year. Fans of first-person shooters or lite-RPGs along the likes of Fallout will likely have a blast cleaning up the streets of Detroit. | Read review |
COGconnected | Rhett Waselenchuk | 59 / 100 | 11-01-2023 | If you’re a diehard fan of the RoboCop franchise, you may find merit in RoboCop: Rogue City. Regardless of my disappointment with it, I can’t deny that it’s the best RoboCop game we’ve seen. Just keep in mind that isn’t exactly saying much. A weak narrative, archaic character models, generally horrific voice acting, and a slew of technical issues hold Rogue City back from being the game I desperately wanted it to be. Admittedly, shootouts can be fun, but I’m not convinced that alone saves what otherwise feels like a letdown. Much like RoboCop’s enemies, approach with caution. | Read review |
Daily Star | Tom Hutchison | 2 / 5 stars | 11-01-2023 | But there’s absolutely nothing in Rogue City you haven’t seen before, done better elsewhere. | Read review |
DarkZero | Dominic Sheard | 7 / 10 | 11-20-2023 | When it comes down to it, RoboCop: Rogue City is aimed at fans of RoboCop. Teyon has made a game that does a great job of capturing the films and their visuals and sound, along with bringing a superb representation of what playing RoboCop would be like. | Read review |
Destructoid | Zoey Handley | 8.5 / 10 | 10-31-2023 | I feel like RoboCop: Rogue City is a terrific game. To use the obvious reference: I’d buy that for a dollar. I can see myself playing through its 15-20 hours again, not necessarily to check out things I may have missed, but simply to re-experience the world it presents. I know that it almost looks like something that belongs in the scrap heap, but if you’re able to look past its rough exterior and exposed seams, you might see the heart that beats underneath. Teyon did a fantastic job with the resources they had, but they’re only human. | Read review |
Digital Chumps | Ben Sheene | 8 / 10 | 03-24-2021 | RoboCop: Rogue City is a gritty and fascinatingly faithful rendition of the 1987 Verhoeven film. It shirks trends of most modern-day shooters to deliver weighty combat in an imperfect, yet wholly entertaining, package. | Read review |
Digital Spy | Joe Draper | 4 / 5 stars | 10-31-2023 | RoboCop: Rogue City is a blast to play for long-time fans of the franchise and goes above and beyond to respect its source material. It won’t win any awards for being ground-breaking, but Peter Weller offering his voice to a story that’s arguably the best use of the RoboCop name since the original film makes this a worthwhile treat for those who want to be transported back to their childhood. | Read review |
Eurogamer | Rick Lane | Not Recommended | 10-31-2023 | Teyon blends bloody linear shootouts with light open world action for an entertaining, if unadventurous, RoboCop experience. | Read review |
Eurogamer.pt | Jorge Salgado | 2 / 5 stars | 11-08-2023 | In conclusion, RoboCop: Rogue City is essentially a game for fans: if you’re not into the “lore”, I don’t think the gameplay is enough to win you over when there are many other games with higher quality on the market. | Read review |
Expansive | Tom Hynes | 7 / 10 | 10-31-2023 | Robocop: Rogue City is one of this year’s biggest and best surprises. It’s not always perfect and things are scaled back a bit too much in some cases, but the witty quips, all-out gun fights, variety in mechanics and objectives, and surprising human element of the story, once again acted by the brilliant Peter Weller, really wins you over again and again. This game actually makes you feel like Robocop in the best possible way by showing great respect to both player and license, resulting in not only the best Robocop game since the original but a brilliant throwback to the golden era of FPS. | Read review |
Game Informer | Marcus Stewart | 7.5 / 10 | 11-02-2023 | Hopefully, updates will stamp out these issues because RoboCop: Rogue City provides a respectable adventure that feels like a long-lost shooter of the early 2010s in mostly good ways. Admittedly, the license carries the game through its rougher patches; if you’re not a RoboCop fan, the adventure may feel dated or buggy compared to other shooters.

Gameblog | Camille Allard | 7 / 10 | 11-21-2023 | RoboCop: Rogue City stands out as the most accomplished video game adaptation of this iconic action hero from the 80s. The game manages to captivate fans with its atmosphere and thrills. | Read review |
GameGrin | Andrew Duncan | 8 / 10 | 10-31-2023 | There are some issues with the game, but they certainly don’t hamper the fun of smashing through the walls of Detroit. | Read review |
GameMAG | Unknown | 7 / 10 | 11-04-2023 | RoboCop: Rogue City is a great example of a strong, if a little unremarkable game that uses all its potential and budget to build a great atmosphere and stand proud as the best RoboCop game ever made. | Read review |
GamePro | Kai Schmidt | 72 / 100 | 11-03-2023 | RoboCop: Rogue City impresses with tons of fan service, but is held back by half-baked technology. | Read review |
Gamers Heroes | Blaine Smith | 8.5 / 10 | 10-31-2023 | RoboCop Rogue City pays homage to its source material like no other. A faithful recreation of a beloved character and world over 30 years in the making. At its core, it’s a fantastic over-the-top 80s action shooter but dig a little deeper and you’ll find a dark, dystopian tale of man and machine more relevant today than ever. | Read review |
GAMES.CH | Josef Erl | 74 / 100 | 11-01-2023 | “RoboCop: Rogue City” looks surprisingly good and can keep up with current triple-A productions in terms of level design. However, there are deductions for the mostly handsome, but very wooden animated character models. In addition, there are unsightly performance and sound problems in the cutscenes. Teyon keeps the story almost a little too close to the film templates, stages it a bit sluggishly and stubbornly marches on well-trodden paths. The gameplay, on the other hand, is fun. The mix of detective role-playing and shooting action motivates until the end thanks to varied levels and decent variety of enemies, even if it lacks a bit of depth overall. A few more skills and more exciting consequences in the dialogue decisions wouldn’t have hurt either. | Read review |
GameSpew | Richard Seagrave | 8 / 10 | 10-30-2023 | Fans of RoboCop are likely to love Rogue City, though it’s also likely to prove appealing to those who simply like shooting up bad guys with reckless abandon. Dealing out violent justice as RoboCop rarely struggles to put a smile on your face – even if, at times, it threatens to become a tad repetitive. Throw in some light investigation and some moments of humour, and you have a game that makes effective use of a much-loved IP. | Read review |
GameSpot | Richard Wakeling | 7 / 10 | 11-02-2023 | RoboCop: Rogue City is a methodical shooter that makes you feel like Old Detroit’s greatest crime fighter, but it errs when its devotion to authenticity wanes. | Read review |
GamesRadar+ | Jon Bailes | 2.5 / 5 stars | 10-31-2023 | Robocop: Rogue City reflects its protagonist’s qualities. It’s well-built and robust, a few glitches aside, and capable of triggering explosive action. Yet it’s also mechanical in its design, its dialogue slow and plodding, and limited in its forms of interaction. Short on engaging mission design and the film’s punchy satire, Detroit’s finest needs better backup to enliven this drawn out adventure. | Read review |
GamingBolt | Chris Hinton | 8 / 10 | 10-31-2023 | Robocop: Rogue City, like Terminator: Resistance before it, aims to deliver a fan-crafted experience, and it succeeds on nearly every level. With the understanding that this title comes from a smaller studio with limitations in the AA space, it’s easy to forgive the lack of polish in certain areas such as facial animations. Otherwise, Rogue City is a thrilling experience through and through. | Read review |
GamingTrend | David Burdette | 80 / 100 | 10-31-2023 | Just like RoboCop himself, Rogue City is only human, but it’s still pretty great. With an intriguing narrative and stellar side missions, exploring Old Detroit is a real treat. Gunplay feels heavy, and engaging your friends and opponents with words as well as bullets is satisfying. In a year filled with blockbusters, this is a cult classic. | Read review |
Geek Culture | Jake Su | 7.8 / 10 | 11-07-2023 | For what it’s worth, RoboCop: Rogue City takes no prisoners when it comes to translating the old action movies onto modern gaming platforms, matching the violence with the kind of attention to detail that makes us believe in the existence of this crime-riddled future Detroit. Being RoboCop is a fantasy that comes to life in all the best ways, delicately balancing the combat-heavy sequences with an interesting levity that comes from more routine police work. While it may lack the cutting edge when it comes to visuals and technical polish, this is still a machine that will get the job done, and that is the perfect encapsulation of RoboCop as a whole. | Read review |
God is a Geek | Mick Fraser | 7.5 / 10 | 10-31-2023 | Bloody and crass, but also occasionally very human, Robocop: Rogue City is the most faithful adaptation of the movie universe we’ve ever had. | Read review |
Hardcore Gamer | Chris Shive | 4 / 5 stars | 11-06-2023 | RoboCop: Rogue City is easily the best RoboCop game to date. | Read review |
Hey Poor Player | Francis DiPersio | 4 / 5 stars | 10-31-2023 | More than just a cynical cash-in, RoboCop: Rogue City does an excellent job bucking the trend of mediocre movie tie-ins to give fans something spectacular. It’s a bloody and visceral love letter to 80s action herodom that leans hard into its source material and even builds upon themes only touched upon in the films. Add a satisfying amount of content in the form of a robust skill tree and a wealth of side missions, and you have a game that no RoboCop fan should miss. | Read review |
Hobby Consolas | Daniel Quesada | 73 / 100 | 11-03-2023 | It’s a far cry from being the shooter of the year, but it has a nostalgic “I don’t know what” that makes you want to play, especially if you freaked out with the uninhibited action of the movies. | Read review |
IGN | Justin Koreis | 7 / 10 | 10-31-2023 | RoboCop: Rogue City is a pitch-perfect throwback to the action movies of the ‘80s. It’s over-the-top violence with charm, largely well put together but rough on the edges. Most importantly, it’s a fun way to spend time in a beloved fictional universe that doesn’t overstay its welcome. Blasting at goons as an unstoppable walking machine remains as extremely entertaining as it seemed on the big screen, thanks in part to an impressive commitment to capturing the look and feel of the original film. Mixing in elements like routine police work and side quests does a great job changing the pace, too. Even if it’s not the best example of visual fidelity, and prone to some bugs along the way, that love of RoboCop shines through. This is a solid B movie of a video game, which is exactly what the source material demands. | Read review |
IGN Italy | Angelo Bianco | 7 / 10 | 11-03-2023 | RoboCop: Rogue City is an old school shooter that aims primarily to entertain fans of the franchise, who will have the chance to fight crime in the role of the robotic vigilante. Teyon’s new project is good enough to provide more than a dozen hours of fun, between gunfights and investigations to solve. Despite the use of Unreal Engine 5, the visual experience of RoboCop: Rogue City is not the best although the direct involvement of Peter Weller. | Read review |
Impulsegamer | Nathan Misa | 4.1 / 5 stars | 11-07-2023 | An immersive first-person shooter and RPG hybrid experience faithful to the original films while standing on its own two (robotic) feet. | Read review |
Merlin’in Kazanı | Murat Oktay | 80 / 100 | 11-20-2023 | We wonder why the game with a brand new story set between Robocop 2 and 3 was not released as a film. We look at what Alex Murphy’s action-packed story has to offer. | Read review |
New Game Network | Alex Varankou | 58 / 100 | 10-31-2023 | RoboCop: Rogue City faithfully recreates the classic character, but gives him nothing to work with. The narrative is dull, presentation is poor, and too many lackluster mechanics are shoehorned in. With unsatisfying action, this title is an empty metal shell of a game. | Read review |
Niche Gamer | Fingal Belmont | 8 / 10 | 10-31-2023 | RoboCop: Rogue City is a methodical FPS with some lite roleplaying and adventure game elements. It’s sardonic with a satirical scenario and has very obscure fan service that only die-hard RoboCop fans would catch. Gamers who can accept this are going to have an enormously fun time. | Read review |
Oyungezer Online | M.İhsan Tatari | 8 / 10 | 11-07-2023 | Rogue City is not only the best RoboCop game ever made, but also one of the best (titanium-grade) movie adaptations ever made. | Read review |
PC Gamer | Noah Smith | 65 / 100 | 11-02-2023 | Robocop: Rogue City’s fantastic shootouts are held back by a dull narrative and bloated pacing. | Read review |
PC Invasion | Anthony Yates | 8 / 10 | 11-02-2023 | RoboCop: Rogue City has its fair share of faults, but the good far outweighs the bad. The visceral combat made gunfights so enjoyable, I looked forward to them even after 10+ hours. It’s not a perfect game, but it’s entertaining from start to finish, and if you’re a fan of the franchise, it’s a must-play. | Read review |
PCMag | Pantelis Daskalelos | 4 / 5 stars | 11-22-2023 | It may lack a bit of gloss in the visuals, but it captures 100% the feeling of the first film, spreading smiles to RoboCop fans. | Read review |
PlayStation Universe | Sebastian Hawden | 6.5 / 10 | 11-03-2023 | While RoboCop does have some fun moments and enjoyable gameplay, it is, on the whole, a shallow, repetitive experience. Living the power-fantasy of being RoboCop does not save it from glitchy, rudimentary gameplay and a story that is too similar to the movies. If you love RoboCop like me, you may find something here to enjoy, otherwise, look elsewhere for your gaming goodness. | Read review |
PowerUp! | Jam Walker | Recommended | 10-31-2023 | Teyon set out to make a damn authentic and utterly enjoyable RoboCop game to a reasonable scale and budget and it absolutely delivered. I can’t honestly say that it’s one of the best games of the year, but it might truly be the one that I’ve had the most fun with from beginning to end. | Read review |
PSX Brasil | Bruno Henrique Vinhadel | 75 / 100 | 10-31-2023 | RoboCop: Rogue City has a number of problems that consist more of a general lack of technical polish and the use of a dated overall game structure. Despite this, it respectfully delivers a good setting for a classic character, respecting the original material and with good doses of fun. | Read review |
Push Square | Khayl Adam | 6 / 10 | 10-31-2023 | RoboCop: Rogue City does an admirable job of bringing the gritty universe of the films to life and of capturing the feeling of playing as the armoured enforcer himself. However, there are only so many cyberpunk lowlifes one can blast to bits before the repetition sets in. | Read review |
Rectify Gaming | Michael Merchant | 8 / 10 | 11-22-2023 | Robocop: Rogue City is a love letter to the films and one of the best movie-to-game adaptations I can think of. It is definitely worth exploring at full price if you are a fan of the genre and the films. | Read review |
Rock, Paper, Shotgun | Brendan Caldwell | Not Recommended | 11-02-2023 | A first-person shooter that is clunky by design. | Read review |
Screen Rant | Leo Faierman | 4 / 5 stars | 10-31-2023 | It’s a matter of taking that memorable original score, the over-the-top firefights, the thoughtful questlines, and the raw retro/pseudo-90s shtick that ultimately leaves less residual concern over a clumsy facial animation or a tedious boss here and there. Every chapter of RoboCop: Rogue City gives players something interesting to do, an unexpected encounter to resolve, or a sly reference to decipher. The result is a great game that accomplishes everything an adaptation could wish for, breathing new life into its source material and setting a new high bar for the franchise. | Read review |
SECTOR.sk | Matúš Štrba | 7 / 10 | 11-06-2023 | Studio Teyon have shown that they understand the RoboCop brand and have delivered a game that fits in well with the established world. They’ve also given us what may be our last chance to enjoy Peter Weller in this iconic role. The action is fun, the shooting is probably the best this year, the upgrading and leveling makes sense, and overall it works well as a game, even if there are a number of hiccups. This game is more than the sum of its parts, though, and for fans it’s something they’ve been waiting for for years. | Read review |
Siliconera | Cody Perez | 8 / 10 | 11-07-2023 | RoboCop: Rogue City may not do anything extraordinary, but it doesn’t have to. It takes the RoboCop license, makes me care about it, and provides a solid Deus Ex-like RPG take on Detroit. | Read review |
Sirus Gaming | Erickson Melchor | 8 / 10 | 10-31-2023 | RoboCop: Rogue City is the sequel to RoboCop 2 we wish we had. The developer’s adherence to the source material is to be commended. Never did I think that the game was something only fans could enjoy. The action is thrilling while the side quests serve as a nice distraction from non-stop shooting. Sadly, minor performance issues and visual bugs hinder this title from ascending the ranks even further. There’s also the developer’s conscious choice of reusing characters for background characters. But despite the shortcomings, Rogue City is a game I highly recommend as it goes above and beyond the call of duty. | Read review |
Skill Up | Ralph Panebianco | Recommended | 11-11-2023 | Video Review | Read review |
Slant Magazine | Steven Scaife | 2.5 / 5 stars | 10-31-2023 | But all that feels incongruent with the game’s source material. Perhaps it’s a bit naïve to hope that any social commentary can survive decades of franchising, but Rogue City’s handling of RoboCop leaves hardly a trace of his origins as a commentary on police violence and militarization. All the time you spend clomping around the faithfully rendered interior of the police station is in service of selling the cops as a force for good, with RoboCop’s actions emphatically meant to make the world a better place. There’s even a dialogue option to call the police a “family,” now totally decoupled from standard sci-fi corporate malfeasance. Rogue City has clearly put a lot of thought and effort into replicating the world of this character, but it does so within a mechanical and narrative framework that never quite fits. | Read review |
SpazioGames | Gianluca Arena | 6.9 / 10 | 10-31-2023 | It could have been a by-the-books license shooter, an easy cash-grab for older players fans of RoboCop. But Rogue City is otherwise: it’s not perfect by any means, and in fact there are a lot of much better choices on all of the platforms it lands on, but it’s still a work of love from a small studio with a small budget. | Read review |
TechRaptor | Giaco Furino | 8 / 10 | 10-31-2023 | While RoboCop: Rogue City has fun and engaging combat, where the game truly shines is in its interactivity between characters and detective work. | Read review |
The Game Crater | Chris Melnyk | 7 / 10 | 10-31-2023 | RoboCop: Rogue City plays and feels like a finely tuned AA game. It is about as close as a game can get to translating the famous cyborg cop to video games, thanks to the mixture of great RPG features, 80’s cheesy story tropes, and unique detective mechanics. While there are issues such as visual bugs and slow traversal in some areas, they don’t outshine the positives that make the game something that fans of the original films and newcomers should absolutely dive into. | Read review |
The Games Machine | Danilo Dellafrana | 8.4 / 10 | 11-08-2023 | RoboCop: Rogue City is the best video game dedicated to Verhoeven’s character, and that alone might be enough of a recommendation for a slice of the old-timers. It is satisfying and brutal, a video game as gory and simple as those of yesteryear, and this is its trump card. What revolves around the shoot-outs is unfortunately not as exciting, but overall it remains a highly recommended game for fans of the film. | Read review |
The Jimquisition | James Stephanie Sterling | 8 / 10 | 11-08-2023 | RoboCop: Rogue City may not boast the high production quality of a top level “AAA” videogame, but it’s more fun and shows more sincerity than most of them put together. What it lacks in polish it more than makes up for in its provision of fuss-free action with immensely satisfying weaponry alongside the occasional glimmer of witty writing. It’s nowhere near as beautifully satirical as the film from which it sprung, but it’s still made with clear love for the original, as well as a ton of sincerity. | Read review |
The Outerhaven Productions | Karl Smart | 4.5 / 5 stars | 11-21-2023 | Robocop: Rogue City brings the world of Old Detroit back to life with a slightly populated slum of a city while keeping the soul of the Robocop franchise intact. Placing Robocop: Rogue City between Robocop 2 and Robocop 3 was a risky move that paid off for Teyon. If nothing else, you deserve to give Robocop: Rogue City a try in a world where nothing else from the 1980s seems to be allowed to be revived and enjoyed. | Read review |
TheGamer | George Foster | 3.5 / 5 stars | 10-30-2023 | Even if Rogue City had started to rust a little towards the end of its lengthy campaign, its surprisingly in-depth shooting and roleplaying mechanics, love of the source material, and keen understanding of what makes RoboCop so great in the first place has made it one of the biggest surprises of 2023 for me. In a year full of absolute bangers, make sure you spend some time in Detroit. | Read review |
TheSixthAxis | Adrian Burrows | 4 / 10 | 10-31-2023 | Robocop: Rogue City certainly looks the part, but beware of this gleaming, shiny, polished graphical exterior; it hides mechanical insides that are rust-riddled and broken. Dead or alive, this game definitely shouldn’t be coming with you. | Read review |
TheXboxHub | Alister Kennedy | 4.5 / 5 stars | 10-31-2023 | With a fantastic blend of 80s/90s action and storytelling, RoboCop: Rogue City raises the bar for what a RoboCop game can be, while delivering an unforgettable gaming experience in the dystopian city of Detroit. | Read review |
Use a Potion | Unknown | 8 / 10 | 11-03-2023 | Robocop: Rogue City keeps things simple, but the chaotically fun action and authentic use of the source material ensure players will have a good time roaming the streets of Detroit as the iconic law-abiding hero. I never stopped enjoying unloading lead into enemies, throwing them through windows, and causing destruction throughout the environment, whilst the engaging side quests add a neat twist to the formula where your actions will determine how others view you. Don’t get me wrong, there’s nothing you wouldn’t have seen before, but it was deeper than I expected. | Read review |
VG247 | Jim Trinca | Recommended | 11-02-2023 | The only thing malfunctioning around here is the economics of game production. And from that struggle, under circumstances that echo those of the original movie’s troubled production, a brilliant piece of work emerges, that somehow nails every part of the brief and finally proves that Robocop can inspire worthy sequels. And if it didn’t look a bit ropey sometimes, I doubt it would feel like Robocop: a stop-motion ED-209 falling down some stairs is goofy as hell, after all, but none of the CGI perfect ED-209s in the 2014 remake ever did anything goofy, and it was crap. So. Y’know. | Read review |
VGC | Chris Scullion | 4 / 5 stars | 10-31-2023 | RoboCop: Rogue City feels outdated at its core, but this actually works in its favour. With no pretensions that it’s offering something revolutionary, the game focuses on delivering big dumb action scenes interspersed with entertaining detective work. It has an engaging story and well-written dialogue, all wrapped in a package that shows clear love for the source material. | Read review |
Video Chums | A.J. Maciejewski | 8 / 10 | 11-07-2023 | RoboCop: Rogue City is a faithful interpretation of the film that’ll make you feel like a badass for cleaning up the streets of Detroit. | Read review |
VideoGamer | Alex Raisbeck | 7 / 10 | 10-31-2023 | RoboCop: Rogue City is a game dripping with love and appreciation of the source material, made by RoboCop fans, for RoboCop fans. But frustrating late game combat and clumsily resolved story beats raise questions of whether it’s for everyone else, too. | Read review |
WayTooManyGames | Leonardo Faria | 8 / 10 | 11-06-2023 | Whenever you are thrown into one of its shooting sections, it is easily one of the best first-person shooters I’ve played in a long, long time, as well as an impressive showcase of what smaller studios can do with Unreal Engine 5’s tools. It’s just that impressive. Whenever you’re told to perform street patrolling or detective work, it’s still a decent, time, but you’ll wish you’d be thrown into another action-heavy set piece instead. Nevertheless, despite some pacing issues and an occasional lack of focus, I’m very impressed with what Teyon was able to achieve. | Read review |
Windows Central | Alexander Cope | 4 / 5 stars | 10-31-2023 | Despite performance issues, stiff animations, and a general lack of real difficulty, RoboCop: Rogue City succeeds at being a faithful adaptation of the movies. It’s packed with fun action sequences and amusing dialogue with an entertaining storyline that makes you feel like you have stepped into his world. It’s a must-buy for RoboCop fans while being a decent weekend romp for casual FPS fans. | Read review |
Worth Playing | Chris “Atom” DeAngelus | 7 / 10 | 11-01-2023 | If you take it on its own merits, Robocop: Rogue City isn’t exactly a great experience. The combat is simplistic, the mechanics are slapdash, and you spend as much time finding someone’s lost towel as you do shooting bad guys. Despite all of that, it’s oddly compelling. It’s ambitious and charming enough that if you’re a fan of Robocop, you’ll probably find it appealing to take a trip in his robo-boots. I can’t imagine it holding much appeal for anyone who isn’t excited for the chance to revisit the iconic locations of the franchise, but die-hard fans will probably revel in it. | Read review |
