We are just a few months away from the release of the upcoming movie-based first-person shooter RoboCop: Rogue City. However, you might be able to play an early version of this game in just a few days.
Developer Teyon and publisher Nacon Games are taking signups for a closed PC beta test of RoboCop: Rogue City. As Teyon states:
We have now reached the point of development where we are looking for feedback from players to help us enhance the game experience we want to provide. As RoboCop: Rogue City is still in development, you might encounter a few bugs during your session. Feel free to share those with us so that we can address the problems as quickly as possible. Our goal for this Playtest is to focus on balancing.
Balancing the game is likely to be a big factor in its success. Early media previews have expressed concerns that when you play as RoboCop, there isn"t much of a challenge when going after enemies. They have also stated that RoboCop"s movements might be too slow, although the truth is that the character in the films moved slowly as part of his overall design.
The closed beta test will be under an NDA, which means if you are accepted you cannot reveal anything about your experiences. You must also have a Steam account and a Discord account and be 18 years of age and over. Your PC must also reach or exceed these hardware specs:

If you get selected for the closed beta, you will get a 30 percent discount code that can be used to buy anything on www.nacongaming.com. You will also get a code to download the game"s digital artwork which will be released with the game"s launch.
