NACON and Teyon Announce RoboCop: Rogue City
The last time we saw RoboCop on consoles it was from the Superman 64 studio
The last couple of times we saw RoboCop in videogames, the cult classic dystopian anti-hero was languishing in mobile games. Not seen on consoles since the PlayStation 2 era outside of a cameo/DLC appearance in Mortal Kombat 11, RoboCop will be landing back in a starring role in 2023.

Publisher NACON and developer Teyon will be releasing RoboCop: Rogue City, an original story based on the first three RoboCop films, for consoles and PC. Teyon is the developer of Terminator: Resistance and Rambo: The Video Game, so it looks like Rogue City is a hat trick of IP licensing for this studio.
The RoboCop franchise is hitting its 35th anniversary this year, although a new movie hasn’t appeared since the 2014 remake underperformed in the box office. RoboCop has been a longtime fixture in pop culture elsewhere though, including several comic books and that one time he helped Sting break out of a cage during WCW Capital Combat 1990.
