RoboCop: Rogue City, one of 2023's most underrated shooters, is now just $4

RoboCop: Rogue City is one of 2023’s most underrated shooters, and you can buy it now for $4, which is an absolute bargain.

To say that the year 2023 was a stellar year for video game releases would be an understatement. Some might rightly say that it was the best year for video game releases of all time.

That glorious year blessed us with the likes of Baldur’s Gate 3, Resident Evil 4 remake, The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, Marvel’s Spider-Man 2, Super Mario Bros. Wonder and much more.

That being said, with so many games that were released in 2023, it would mean that many other fantastic titles may have gone under plenty of radars, such as the aforementioned, RoboCop: Rogue City, and right now, it costs just $3.99/£3.49 on the PC platform, Steam. Typically, it would cost $39.99/£34.99.

RoboCop: Rogue City is very faithful to the iconic movies

Developed by Teyon, RoboCop: Rogue City takes place between the events of RoboCop 2 and RoboCop 3. It’s also one of the most faithful and accurate movie adaptations of all time, especially when it comes to wandering about in the Detroit Police Department. Oh, and even Peter Weller reprises his role as RoboCop, aka Alex Murphy.

On top of that, the first-person shooter action is fantastic, it looks visually stunning, the sound of RoboCop’s iconic Auto-9 sounds incredible, it has some really fun side missions to complement the main campaign, has RPG levelling up mechanics, and a legendary soundtrack, of course.

How well was RoboCop: Rogue City received?
