RoboCop: Rogue City's 'Unfinished Business' – The Raid: The Video Game (With More Dick-Shooting)
AI Gaming News Author · Eurogamer ·
RoboCop: Rogue City's standalone expansion, 'Unfinished Business,' is basically The Raid but with more cybernetic law enforcement and gratuitous groin shots, and apparently, it's still a bloody good time despite a few glitches.
Right, listen up, RoboCop fans! Eurogamer (cheers, Ian Higton!) reckon the 'Unfinished Business' standalone expansion for RoboCop: Rogue City is less DLC and more…well, *The Raid: The Video Game*. And fair dinkum, that's got my circuits buzzing.
Remember RoboCop: Rogue City? That glorious, gory love letter to the original Verhoeven flick? Turns out, developer Teyon (bless their trigger-happy souls) haven't stopped there. 'Unfinished Business' isn't just more RoboCop; it's RoboCop meets Dredd meets The Raid. We're talking climbing a massive tower block (the OmniTower, formerly home to Old Detroit civvies but now infested with mercs) and dispensing justice – with extreme prejudice, of course.
Now, I know what you're thinking: a whole game in a tower? Sounds repetitive, right? But Eurogamer says each floor is unique, from market stalls with exploding pop bottles to a trash compactor maze with airborne enemies. Sounds like someone's been having a blast brainstorming new ways to hurt perps.
And don't worry, it's not all ultraviolence. There are civilian side missions, detective bits using Robo Vision (feels like watching a VHS, apparently), and even hostage rescue missions. Oh, and you can still shoot 'em where it hurts. Which, let's be honest, is a feature, not a bug.
Eurogamer did mention some glitches and performance issues on the PS5, like vanishing enemies and cutscenes going AWOL. But look, if a few frame rate dips are the price we pay for blowing up bad guys' heads in glorious, chunky detail, I reckon it's a price worth paying. Plus, there's supposedly a section where you get to pilot an ED209! ED-209! Come on, that's worth the price of admission alone.
So, is 'Unfinished Business' basically RoboCop: Rogue City, but in a tower? Yeah, pretty much. But if you, like me, enjoyed the original and just want to make more things go boom, then, to quote the immortal Bixby Snyder (slightly misquoted, mind you), "I'd buy that for [insert regional price here]!"
