Set after the events of the last game, it kicks off with an attack on the police station\u2014which served as one of your central hubs in <em>Rogue City\u2014<\/em>that leaves many of the NPCs from that game dead. A few of the main characters from the movies, like Officer Lewis, survive, point RoboCop in the direction of a big tower filled with mercenaries who were likely responsible, and then don\u2019t show up again for hours and hours. It\u2019s like<em> Unfinished Business<\/em> wants to remind players of the more varied world and characters of the last game before it dumps you into the boring corridors of OmniTower. <\/p>\n<p class=\"sc-77igqf-0 fnnahv\">Once in OmniTower, <em>Unfinished Business<\/em> tasks you with reaching the upper levels of the massive structure. But between RoboCop and his goal are hundreds of bots and mercs ready to kill the shiny hero. While<em> Rogue City<\/em> featured plenty of first-person combat,<em> Unfinished Business<\/em> features loads more. This is  mostly an action game, whereas the last one could be charitably described as a low-budget spin on a Bethesda game.<\/p>\n<p class=\"sc-77igqf-0 fnnahv\">Thankfully, gunning down creeps and saving hostages is still a blast in <em>Unfinished Business<\/em>. And a few new weapons, along with the ability to use the environment to take down baddies\u2014like shoving someone down a garbage chute\u2014help spice things up. But I really hope you liked the shooty-shooty bits from <em>Rogue City<\/em> because <em>Unfinished Business<\/em> is mostly that. <\/p>\n<p class=\"sc-77igqf-0 fnnahv\">In <em>Rogue City<\/em>, I fell in love with a little slice of Old Detroit as I patrolled it, completed side missions, met various characters, and helped protect them. That\u2019s all gone in <em>Unfinished Business<\/em>. There are still side quests and characters to meet, but most of them are left behind between levels as you keep moving up. Instead of a small slice of urban decay that you can grow to love, <em>Unfinished Business<\/em> gives you oh so many grey corridors and rooms. Thanks? <\/p>\n<p class=\"sc-77igqf-0 fnnahv\">All the RPG systems from<em> Rogue City<\/em> are back in <em>Unfinished Business,<\/em> which does help add more to this game and keep it from being just a straight-up linear shooter, but compared to what came before, it\u2019s disappointing. A few moments where you get to play as a pre-RoboCop Alex Murphy are neat, but don\u2019t add much to the experience. <\/p>\n<p class=\"sc-77igqf-0 fnnahv\">Hopefully, the devs behind <em>Unfinished Business<\/em> and <em>Rogue City <\/em>have a proper sequel in the works that brings back the open-world RPG formula that made that last game so charming and memorable. <\/p>\n<p class=\"sc-77igqf-0 fnnahv\"> .<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/kotaku.com\/robocop-rogue-city-unfinished-business-expansion-review-1851786534\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RoboCop: Rogue City &#8211; Unfinished Business is a newly released standalone expansion to 2023&#8217;s surprisingly excellent and charming RoboCop: Rogue City.
