Nov 25, 2023 10:00 AM

New gaming sensation 'Robocop: Rogue City' has exceeded the expectations set by publisher Nacon, drawing in over 435,000 players within its first two weeks of release. Embracing the role of Robocop, players enforce the law in the crime-ridden streets of Detroit, utilizing an arsenal of weapons and the character's brute strength. Positive player reviews, particularly on Steam, indicate a strong reception for the title, which is available on PS5, Xbox Series X|S, as well as on Steam and the Epic Games Store. Originally planned for Nintendo Switch, the version for the handheld console was unfortunately canceled. As fans enjoy the campy charm of the iconic franchise through the game, Nacon's satisfaction is unmistakable as they celebrate its unexpected success. 'Robocop: Rogue City' is designed to cater to die-hard fans of the series and offers a rich, action-packed experience that faithfully captures the essence of the beloved '80s property.

Robocop: Rogue City smashing through expectations like ED-209 through a boardroom reminds us that there's always room in gamers' hearts for a well-crafted nostalgia trip. It's wickedly satisfying to see the 80's icon not just back on the beat, but also racking up the kind of Steam reviews that would make OCP think twice about their business model.
