This is a very solid game and one of the best entries to the Robocop universe out there. It's not anything groundbreaking for video games, but it doesn't need to be since it has so much care for the IP compared to so much other modern media nowadays.

It's that loyalty to the original source material that I think makes this game so special. I wouldnt consider myself a robocop fan by any means, but even I can feel the amount of passion and love the developers put into this game.

Its silly writing, it's great gun play, its progression systems, its creative world design, it's enjoyable side stories, all of this and so much more does wonders to elevate the world robocop is in and it results in a very compelling first person shooter cop game that I think will impress robocop fans and newcomers alike.

And that's why I recommend RoboCop: Rogue City.

7.8/10

At the very first, I was afraid I’d get bored : RoboCop is slow, clunky, overpowered – which is perfectly faithful to the movies, but not exactly fun to play. Luckily, once you clear the first mission, the game opens up: the police station hub, and then a fairly large district to explore, side missions, some freedom of approach. That’s when the atmosphere kicked in, and I found myself embracing the whole “walking fridge with a gun” experience.

Still, the problem of RoboCop’s overwhelming power never fully goes away. I usually play FPS on the 3rd out of 4 difficulties, so I started there. After two hours I bumped it up to the hardest setting, but it still felt like “normal” difficulty in other shooters. Only the ending made me sweat a little – and that was mostly because I hadn’t picked the best ability to auto-repair my armor.

Yet… it was fun. There’s something oddly satisfying about mowing down gangs of colorful scum – bikers, thugs, mercenaries – even if they rarely pose a real threat. The Auto-9 becomes a beast once upgraded with boards, and while other weapons exist (the sniper has its moments), they rarely matter compared to your iconic hand cannon. The mix between shooting sequences and quieter exploration/investigation phases works well and prevents fatigue.

The atmosphere is the game’s greatest strength. Despite a modest budget (AA at best), it captures the dystopian, satirical tone of the original films. Social satire is there but pretty diluted – enough for a 2-hour movie, stretched over a 17-hour game, it loses some impact. The critique of capitalism feels toned down: the OCP boss comes across almost as a “nice guy” running a monstrous company, which is a bit too convenient. Still, the story itself is exactly what you’d expect from RoboCop: simple, effective, classic. Dialogue choices have limited impact but are enough to give you a sense of agency.

Hearing Peter Weller back as RoboCop was a nice touch. I honestly thought it was an AI voice clone or a good imitator, until I checked Wikipedia and realized it was him in person. That added charm.

Technically, the game is solid if not spectacular. Detroit looks gritty and realistic, though not exactly “pretty” – which kind of fits. Enemy AI is weak: they often wait around to be gunned down, or hide awkwardly while you pick off their friends. A bit more coordinated aggression would’ve raised the challenge a lot. On the plus side, I didn’t encounter any bugs at all.

If you’ve played 'Terminator: Resistance', this feels like its spiritual sibling – same respect for the license, same sincerity. Overall I found it slightly less good, because RoboCop’s slow gameplay is less universally enjoyable than Terminator’s. Still, Teyon clearly improved in other areas. For fans of RoboCop, this is hard to pass. For FPS fans in general… it depends. If you’re looking for a high production value, dynamic shooter, you’ll be disappointed. But if you’re open to something different, and don’t mind a slower pace with a lot of atmosphere, you’ll probably enjoy it.

“There Will Be Trouble.” That’s RoboCop in a nutshell: a bit outdated, a bit clunky, but with undeniable charm. The future used to look horrible but distant; now it looks horribly present. But we still miss RoboCop.

It took me 17-hour to beat the game, without rushing.

- Atmosphere faithful to the movies, despite modest budget
- Police station hub and open districts give a nice sense of place
- Peter Weller reprising RoboCop adds authenticity
- Auto-9 feels great to use and upgrade
- Mix of shooting and exploration works well
- Impressive enemy dismemberment

- RoboCop is too powerful, difficulty balance is off
- Enemy AI is weak and rarely challenging
- Other weapons mostly feel pointless next to the Auto-9
- Technically solid but far from pretty
- Relatively short, limited replay value, NG+ adds little
- Easy to miss a couple of side missions
- Feel a bit pricey at US$50, try to grab it on sale

Good game ruined by bad optimization. My gpu is reaching 80-90 degree heat even on low settings. I also capped my fps to 60, i even tried undervolting my gpu still doesnt lower the heat. I have played many demanding games but my gpu doesnt cross 80. I hope they really take these thing seriously and fix it. Dont know about others but i am not going to play a game which is making my pc an OVAN !!
I am allowing the comments, if anyone have some solutions to plz share it !!
