Developed by Teyon and published by Nacon, RoboCop: Rogue City marks the return of Peter Weller to his iconic role as he voices RoboCop in this arcade first-person shooter. In addition, this is the first time in nearly 20 years that the tinman has had his own video game. But has it been worth the wait? Well, that depends on if players are prepared to temper their expectations on what’s clearly not an expensively produced game.

On the surface, a RoboCop video game seems like a very straightforward premise—fight bad guys as a cyborg cop and uphold the law in dystopian '80s America. However, most of RoboCop's game appearances didn't quite focus on the social satire and gray morality of Paul Verhoeven's 1987 film, instead leaning on a shooter experience.

This month, we're getting an eclectic lineup of games — from a throwback adaptation of an 80s cult cyberpunk film to a much-anticipated remake of a beloved Super Nintendo classic.
