RoboCop Rogue City On Steam Mistakingly Replaced Briefly By Unannounced Hunter: The Reckoning Game

Teyon, the studio behind RoboCop: Rogue City, has briefly replaced the Steam version of the game with an unannounced Hunter: The Reckoning title by mistake.

The Steam edition of RoboCop: Rogue City removed the contents of the game, such as the RoboCop.exe executable in a recent update, replacing them with a different build that including Hunter — Win64 — Shipping.exe executable. The update was downloaded by X user Edness, who discovered an early build of a totally different game featuring the title screen ‘Hunter: The Reckoning.’

This build had the player in control of a police officer who is tasked with investigating a bar shootout, and involved the player speaking with the barman and a priest. Hunter: The Reckoning is a tabletop RPG set in the World of Darkness universe (of which Vampire: The Masquerade is also a part of) and includes supernatural creatures such as vampires and werewolves.

Hunter: The Reckoning was adapted into a video game in 2002 by High Voltage Software for Xbox and GameCube, where players take on the role of hunters who battle against hordes of enemies with an assortment of weapons, both melee and ranged, in the gothic-punk-inspired prison town of Ashcroft. The game was followed by Hunter: The Reckoning — Wayward and Hunter: The Reckoning — Redeemer in 2003.

Right now it’s unknown what this mysterious Hunter: The Reckoning build is; it could be a game that’s due a formal reveal soon, or something that was cancelled. Either way, it was clearly a mistake to have it briefly uploaded.
