Nacon Celebrates ‘RoboCop: Rogue City’ With New Accolades Trailer [Watch]
Still haven’t checked out RoboCop: Rogue City yet? Nacon has revealed that since the game’s launch on November 2nd, Rogue City has become the publisher’s best ever launch. Per a new press release and new Accolades trailer, RoboCop: Rogue City garnered over 435,000 players in the space of 2 weeks, and racked up 2.7 million active game sessions. That’s on top of earning 92% positive reviews on Steam.
According to Nacon CEO Alain Falc, Rogue City has exceeded the publisher’s expectations. “We are really proud to have been able to work with the studio Teyon on this game created by and for RoboCop die-hards. We would also like to thank MGM for the trust they placed in us throughout this collaboration, as well as all the players who have contributed to making this release such a great success.”
It was obvious that the team at Teyon put a lot of love into the game, given the numerous references to the series that players have been finding. Not just from the obvious fact that Peter Weller returned to voice RoboCop, but also the the locations, weapons and characters from the series sprinkled throughout the game.
Even in our own review of the game, Reyna refers to Rogue City as “an authentic RoboCop experience”, and one that treats the IP “with the respect and care that it deserves”.
RoboCop: Rogue City is available now for the PlayStation 5, Xbox Series and PC via Steam and the Epic Games Store.

Table Inspired by 2022’s ‘Texas Chainsaw Massacre’ Coming to ‘Pinball M’ on June 6 [Trailer]
Zen Studios’ horror-themed pinball game Pinball M will be adding another property to its lineup of tables, this time with a table inspired by David Blue Garcia‘s 2022 film Texas Chainsaw Massacre. Players will be able to carve up their victims on June 6, with what’s being referred to as “one of the most brutal pinball tables ever created.”
Players will take on the role of Leatherface (in pinball form, obviously), as you terrorize the new arrivals who have dared to come into your town. Just like in the film, you can rev the chainsaw and have a bloodbath on the bus, or sneak up on your unsuspecting victims by shooting the correct targets. Maim and massacre all survivors in order to reach Pinball M‘s Wizard Mode.
“The brutal and unnerving legacy of Leatherface comes to life once again in pinball form,” said Mel Kirk, COO of Zen Studios. “Designer Zoltan Vari did not hold back at all. Players can expect a brutal, bloody, and maniacal table worthy of joining Pinball M.”
Pinball M already has quite the lineup of tables inspired by Universal horror properties. In addition to crossovers with Behaviour Interactive’s Dead by Daylight, 3D Realms’ Duke Nukem and Nightdive’s System Shock remake, players can also dive into tables inspired by John Carpenter’s The Thing and Child’s Play.
Of course, if you want the real thing, you can check out Spooky Pinball LLC‘s officially-licensed Texas Chainsaw Massacre machine.
Pinball M is available now on PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, and PC via Steam and the Epic Games Store.
