    Complete rubbish, looks like an OG xbox game but still runs at crappy 60 Fps. What worse is it claims to be 4K on the enhanced console but is 720 p at best. Also claim to have HDR support, but it dose nothing. The tone , characters world , everything is stupid on bland.
    This is bargain basement crap and is an embarrassment to the Contra name

    Terrible !!!!!!!! Konami keep manage your gyms in Japan and stop shame yourself!
    Can’t shoot infinite!
    CNt control like in modern games
    Can’t look at this visual outdated mess
    Can’t play without face palm

    I hope Sony is going to buy serial rights to each and every good IP you have !

    being a contra player since NES, this was the perfect opportunity to modernize the game, but again, we are left with a shooter that does not fully meet expectations but it was fun to play

    Nope.

    I don't understand, Konami. Why do you only have such bad ideas? Can you make something even HALF decent again?

    This is some kind of shame, the developers have no conscience for a single gram! This is a completely different game, there is no more of that game, they killed this unportable!

    If Contra: Rogue Corps were known by any other name, it wouldn't be so bad. The idea of a twin-stick looter shooter is intriguing, and the shooting can be decent even if the level flow isn't exciting. However, that reliance on the franchise name comes with certain expectations. The overheating guns, restricted co-op, and missing weapon sets run counter to what fans have come to expect from the series that's been around for over 30 years. If you aren't too discerning, this may be worth a look if it's in the bargain bin. If fans of the series pick up Rogue Corps, they will be disappointed.

    If you expect a game that respects the beginnings of the saga, you won't find it here. Against ROGUE CORPs is a shooting video game that at the technical level is a disaster, it lacks a more polished and precise control, as well as a huge swing in terms of weapons. Nor does it stand out in terms of enemies and scenarios, both things are repeated too much, so much that sometimes one does not know if he has exceeded the level or if or is doing back. While it has certain interesting and fun moments, it is a title that is not worth it at all. If you want to experience the Contra saga at its best, you have a pack of Contra games that you can buy from the PS Store.

    Rogue Corps is an insult to the cult franchise. It downgrades and splatters the mud all over the once very fun and extremely hard run ’n’ gun gameplay, with its repetitive levels, enemies and irritating overheat mechanics.
