The most feared soldier on Nu Earth is back in business! ROGUE TROOPER REDUX will bring 2000 AD’s blue-skinned GI to Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, Xbox One and PC.
In 2006, the original ROGUE TROOPER set the benchmark for video game adaptations of comic books back when such things were still pretty new. Developed by Rebellion, the studio behind Sniper Elite 4 and owners of British comic book powerhouse 2000 AD, it was acclaimed for bringing the cult sci-fi strip to life in an authentic, tactical, cover-based third-person shooter that debuted before the genre became the gaming staple it is today.
ROGUE TROOPER REDUX will remaster the Rebellion classic for a new generation of players, taking them to the chem-blasted battlefields of Nu Earth. Rogue, a bio-engineered Genetic Infantryman (or “GI”) immune to the planet’s poisonous atmosphere, is the last soldier standing against the colonial Nort regime. Carrying three fallen comrades as biochips in his equipment, Rogue is a one-unit squad of death and destruction, and he only has one thing on his mind – REVENGE.
The teaser trailer shows fuck all, but the original game was a pretty solid so I’m not all that annoyed. Still, I would really like to have seen some gameplay of this so-called remaster.
