Take on the role of avenging angel as you mete out rough justice to the  perpetrators of evil and lawlessness. Some of the most exciting scenes  ever to fill a computer screen confront you. The future is here and now  when you take up this challenge - PART MAN - PART MACHINE - ALL COP. — Cassette cover

RoboCop was licenced by UK-based Ocean Software at the script stage,  so (fairly uniquely for the time) the 1988 run & gun and beat 'em up  hybrid arcade game developed and published by Data East and Nihon Bussan, was licensed from a computer game company rather than the other way around. This is why the arcade game bears a licence credit for Ocean. Several reworked versions appeared for home computers and video game  consoles, most of them handled by Ocean, as well as a NES version ported  by Sakata SAS and published by Data East. It has more recently appeared  on mobile phones. The IBM and Apple ports were produced by US-based  Quicksilver Software. Unlike the other home versions, the Commodore 64  version is a mostly original game that only loosely follows the arcade  RoboCop. In addition to a different soundtrack, the boss battles are  replaced with a screen where the player must shoot a man holding a  woman hostage (without hitting her). The original European cassette  version was notorious for a huge number of bugs (which were cleaned  up in the US disk release).
