UpcomingFPS RoboCop: Rogue City has shown off its first gameplay and revealed lead character Alex Murphy, with the full likeness of original actor Peter Weller. The game is now scheduled to arrive in June 2023.
Shown off at today's Nacon Connect showcase, we got a look at the game's dystopian Detroit from the first-person perspective of RoboCop himself, amid what seems to be gang violence across the city. Combat appears to be a mix of gunplay and melee, with Murphy's targeting systems used to take out hard-to-hit enemies. We even see an ED-209 robot join the fray.
RoboCop is an action classic, and one of the best-ever '80s action movies, and a typically Paul Verhoeven mixture of ultraviolence and dystopian satire. There's currently a prequel series in development for TV, based on the series' depiction of Detroit and Omni Consumer Products, the company that goes onto create RoboCop himself.
If you've been eagerly awaiting more on RoboCop: Rogue City since its announcement back in 2021, today's your day. Publisher Nacon has released a new "gameplay overview" trailer and confirmed a launch delay from the previously announced June window into September.
This is Nacon's second gameplay video for RoboCop: Rogue City, but given how little actual gameplay was included in the intial one, this latest is arguably the first time developer Teyon (which made the rather wonky Terminator: Resistance) has been able to give a real sense of how things will play out. And that appears to be a mix of first-person gunplay and detective work.
In the video, we see RoboCop patrolling the rain-slicked streets of Old Detroit in search of a suspected drug trafficker. He's able to profile ne'er-do-wells using his fancy gadgetry as he makes his way to the likely scene of the crime - an arcade - and once inside, there's an opportunity to do a bit of scan-based detective work, where he uncovers evidence of drug use on the premises before bothering a potential informant at the urinal.
With some new info - and an approved digital search warrant - in hand, it's time for a quick trip across town to confront the goons seemingly behind the drug trafficking, at which point guns are unholstered and bullets (and brains) fly.
But that's all for the time being, and specifics on the game - beyond what appears in today's trailer - remain slight. However, if this latest showing has got you interested, RoboCop: Rogue City will now be launching for Xbox Series X/S, PS5, and PC this September.
During today's Nacon Connect presentation, developer Teyon showed off new gameplay of the upcoming RoboCop: Rogue City. The game puts you in the metallic shoes of Alex Murphy as you explore Detroit in what appears to be a high-octane, technologically advanced first-person shooter.
RoboCop: Rogue City not only gives you the tech-enhanced combat capabilities of the eponymous protagonist but also gives you the ability to make dialogue choices as you meet new characters. This lets you decide how to fulfill your objectives, but as you might have guessed, the developers intend to throw various twists in a story about corruption and greed. Actor Peter Weller, who portrayed Murphy in the original films, is scheduled to reprise his role in the game.
Developer Teyon was founded in 2006 and has released nearly 100 games since. Its most noteworthy releases include other licensed titles starring '80s action IP, including 2014's Rambo: The Video Game and 2019's Terminator: Resistance. RoboCop: Rogue City arrives in September for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC.
RoboCop: Rogue City, an upcoming game about the iconic part man, part machine, all cop hero, being developed by Teyon, has got an official gameplay reveal trailer, released by the game's publisher Nacon.
According to the new trailer, the game will put us in the shoes of RoboCop and task us to clear the streets of Detroit from violent gang members, thieves, and murderers using the legendary Auto-9 pistol, superhuman strength, and a variety of tools. The game will be a first-person shooter with a rich story and a variety of choices that will allow you to go your own way in choosing how to fulfill your prime directives.
What's more, Nacon also announced that Peter Weller, the actor who played the first-ever RoboCop, will play the role of Alex James Murphy once again by providing a voiceover for the game's main character.
