Comparing the score of 69 with titles like Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 would give you an idea of the potential of the game. MW2 managed a score of 75 whereas Redfall which received some decent fan reception could only manage a score of 56 on the website. 

RoboCop: Rogue City also marks the redemption for the iconic action franchise that the fans felt kept losing its charm with consecutive releases. Well, it seems like the developers have justified all the time taken for this new installment.

The gameplay takes place between RoboCop 2 and 3. The incorporation of the characters’ psychological points of view is the most intriguing element of the game. The decisions, conversations, and investigations made by players will influence which supporting characters survive and which ones do not. Every choice made throughout the roughly 20–30-hour campaign will be finalized. For a more individualized experience, the title features different endings this time.

Besides some promising new additions, there are plenty of leaps the developers take in terms of graphics and visuals. Further, all the combat demos that have been made accessible to the public show some solid upgrades from the 2014 launch. The Armor essential in the FPS has also been taken into consideration.
