RoboCop: Rogue City Coming to Mac This Fall

Lesquin, France, 11 June 2024 – Teyon studio and the publisher NACON are excited to announce the release of RoboCop: Rogue City for Mac this fall. The game will be on the Mac App Store and Steam.

RoboCop: Rogue City runs natively on Macs with Apple silicon, featuring incredible performance, smooth and immersive gameplay, with support for software technologies in macOS like HDR and MetalFX Upscaling.

Michał Tatka, CEO of Teyon had this to say: “We’re so excited by the momentum we’re seeing on Mac, which attests to the great tools Apple provides for game developers. RoboCop: Rogue City takes full advantage of Apple silicon Macs, delivering smooth frame rates and providing high quality visuals. We are delighted to ensure that Mac gamers have the opportunity to hit the streets of Old Detroit, and experience the adventures of the iconic pop culture character – part man, part machine and all hero. Dead or alive, don’t miss out this fall!”

RoboCop: Rogue City immerses the player in Old Detroit, in an original story taking place between the RoboCop 2 and 3 films. In this new first-person adventure, the player must restore law and order to a city plunged into chaos in the wake of the arrival of a new crime lord. The gameplay switches between explosive battles, investigations in the field and side quests, in which the player will decide citizens’ fates, thereby affecting the game progression.

Out of their desire to pay tribute to the franchise, the Teyon team have also left numerous references to the RoboCop world for players to discover, such as the iconic locations, weapons and characters, including the actor Peter Weller, who returns to duty as the face and voice of the cyborg cop in RoboCop: Rogue City.

RoboCop: Rogue City is the creation of the development studio Teyon and video game publisher NACON in collaboration with and pursuant to a license from Amazon MGM Studios Consumer Products and Interactive Licensing.

RoboCop: Rogue City will be released this fall for Mac via Steam and the App Store.

What makes the Ylands: Nintendo Switch™ Edition version of the game unique, is that it will be available as a single-player offline game, which offers the popular Adventure and Creative game modes to cater to different play styles.

Perhaps better known for their genre-defining hits Arma and DayZ, Bohemia Interactive has been redeveloping Ylands to ensure players have a fantastic experience whether they are playing at home or on the go, on their TV screens or via handheld with the following changes worth highlighting:

Play Ylands Offline For The First Time
Ylands will be able to be played fully offline only on the Switch, which is a first for this series. After download and initial launch, players don’t need an active internet connection to play the game. All player game worlds, creations and progress is stored locally which ensures smooth uninterrupted sailing, wherever they choose to play.

Buy Once, Play Forever
While Ylands on PC is a free-to-play title Bohemia Interactive has elected for a simpler pay upfront premium model for the Switch edition This, in combination with its offline nature, means there are no pay-to-progress mechanics, less of a need to grind in order to accumulate resources and no monetization pushes. All planned updates for Ylands: Nintendo Switch™ Edition will always be included for no additional cost with the option to purchase optional cosmetic DLC packages also supported.

Optimised Controls and UI with Stable Framerate
Ylands: Nintendo Switch™ Edition has been optimized to take full advantage of the hardware & boasts a stable framerate plus a user interface that has been designed with both TV and handheld play in mind.

Safe Single Player For All Ages
Due to its offline structure, Ylands: Nintendo Switch™ Edition is a 100% safe gaming environment for younger players with zero microtransaction prompts and no risk of negative interactions with other players. There is no gore or graphic violence in the game, which makes it a perfect experience for younger players.

Adventure and Creative Modes
Ylands: Nintendo Switch™ Edition is an experience that supports and encourages creative development and thinking at every stage. There are virtually unlimited building opportunities available to the player; both in the more story-centric Adventure mode and the sandbox-orientated Creative mode. If players don’t wish to create from the ground-up it will also be possible to purchase different types of buildings, ships and even pets via the Nintendo eShop.


With the full release scheduled for next month (June), excited adventurers can now add Ylands: Nintendo Switch™ Edition to their wishlist on the Nintendo eShop. This is the perfect opportunity to prepare for an engaging and creative adventure where your skills in exploration, crafting, and survival will be put to the test in a beautiful and enchanting world.
