Mega City Police

Before the upcoming action roguelike Mega City Police is released on Steam, I had the chance to try out a small preview of this high-octane shooter.

Developer: Undreamed Games

Genre: Action

Release Date: Coming Soon

Platform: PC

Developed by Undreamed Games and published by Ravenage Games, Mega City Police is sure to delight fans of tough yet rewarding titles and anyone looking for a real retro throwback!

Right from the moment the title screen loads up, the synthwave soundtrack fires up and never stops blasting some great laid-back tracks and pulse-pounding beats. Before even taking control of a character, it's clear that Mega City Police isn't intended to be a game to relax and unwind with!

Starting off, you'll navigate through a short tutorial at a police station, and if you've played any topdown shooters before, it will all feel immediately familiar. The left mouse button fires your current weapon, whilst right-clicking will make your character perform a melee attack - which has its own cooldown timer, so no spamming! If you're someone who prefers controllers to keyboard and mouse, then Mega City Police works perfectly with them, with a default control scheme that I never felt needed altering.
