Sixty seconds (ok…it’s actually a 1m 55s) isn’t enough time but the team at NACON has quite the elevator pitch for you to check out their upcoming title RoboCop: Rogue City. Based on the iconic cinematic franchise, the game will take place between RoboCop 2 and 3, Murphy will be voiced in cutscenes by the original RoboCop actor himself, Professor Peter Weller (yes, he taught at Syracuse University), and will the game feature familiar characters from the franchise such as Officer Anne Lewis, Sergeant Warren Reed, ED-209 (the team even animated RoboCop’s rival to move like it did in the original film…via stop-motion animation).
The game won’t necessarily be just a first person shooter as it will require RoboCop to actually do some police work, be it working the desk at the precinct, patrolling the streets and more. The PR team also included some other bullet points for the title.
