Intel may be relatively new on the discrete GPU scene, but it’s already #1 on the market when it comes to price to performance, according to Piotr Derkowski, lead programmer for RoboCop: Rogue City, who is featured in a new Behind the Game video that Intel shared for the game this week. To promote the game, Intel gave away a fully custom PC inspired by ED-209, the bi-pedal robot that falls down the stairs in the first RoboCop film.
Derkowski mentioned:
- “[Intel Arc graphics] is the third player on the market that brings a new, quite fast graphics card, and performance-to-price, it’s like #1.”
- “Whoever is [getting an] Intel Arc GPU is going to have a good experience playing RoboCop: Rogue City.”
- “We didn’t find any compromises here [with XeSS], so the image in the end was as crisp as it could be. For us, it was as easy as taking XeSS and activating it in our custom Unreal Engine 5 version. This is something we always appreciate as developers.”

RandomDesign explained:
The design is based in the ED-209 robot from the original 80s movie. Most parts are printed on PLA and Resin, But many details are cast in a urethane resin as well.
