Our take on Neon Hardcorps
The feature list gives equal weight to several map types and six characters, but it provides little detail about how upgrades develop or how the characters differ during play. The result is a clear premise with limited information about longer-term structure.
What is Neon Hardcorps?
Neon Hardcorps is a top-down action shooter set in a cyberpunk environment.
Its map types include run-and-gun stages, special car-chase sections, boss encounters, and tactical maps. Six main characters are available, with each using distinct armour, weapons, and abilities.
