The anticipation is building as fans of RoboCop: Rogue City gear up for its sequel, coming in the summer of 2025. This next chapter, titled RoboCop: Rogue City – Unfinished Business, is set to unfold within the towering confines of OmniTower, a sprawling residential complex constructed by the notorious Omni Consumer Products. Players will be thrust into a pulse-pounding mission, facing off against a variety of advanced technological adversaries as they ascend to the tower’s peak.
In the original release from 2023, Teyon—known for their work on Terminator: Resistance—immersed players into the gritty world of RoboCop. You stepped into the iconic metallic boots of Alex Murphy, brought back to life, patrolling Old Detroit with the ever-iconic voice of Peter Weller guiding the way. Positioned between the events of the second and third films, the game offered a thrilling mix of action and investigative gameplay, allowing players to tackle crime either through sheer force or strategic diplomacy.
Praised for its authentic 80s sci-fi vibe, RoboCop: Rogue City quickly won over the hearts of gamers, pulling in a staggering 435,000 players just two weeks post-launch in November 2023. Critics and players alike applauded the way the game captures the essence of being the formidable RoboCop, delivering a choice-driven experience that lets you either uphold peace with precision or dish out justice through relentless firepower.
Now, there’s fresh excitement on the horizon with the announcement of RoboCop: Rogue City – Unfinished Business. According to publisher Nacon, players will confront a scenario where deadly mercenaries equipped with state-of-the-art weaponry have turned OmniTower into a heavily fortified base. To reclaim it, RoboCop must battle his way through layers of high-tech foes.
The preview trailer for Unfinished Business has just dropped, revealing an arsenal of new weapons, including the ice-cold Cryo Cannon. Gamers can unleash fierce finishing moves, sending adversaries crashing into walls or repurposing nearby vending machines as tools of justice. Nacon teases that this new installment will serve as both a self-contained adventure and an expansion to the original game, making it likely that the story will be a bit more concise than its predecessor.
RoboCop’s journey through the world of video games is rich and varied, from classic side-scrollers to his cameo in the fighting game Mortal Kombat 11. The triumphant reception of RoboCop: Rogue City underscores the potential for more engaging stories starring this cybernetic law enforcer. With Unfinished Business set to hit the gaming landscape this summer, it’s crystal clear that Alex Murphy isn’t ready to hang up his virtual badge just yet.
