Rico London

About

Rico London is a top-down shooter where you and a friend take down gangs in a high-rise tower. Switch between cover, shoot enemies, and pick up their weapons to turn the tide. The tower’s floors fill with hostiles as you climb higher, forcing quick decisions and tight teamwork. Split-screen co-op lets two players share a console, while online multiplayer adds chaos. The gameplay loops around explosive firefights and scavenging for better gear mid-battle. The setting ties the action to London’s New Year’s Eve 1999, with a lone detective pushing through without backup. Fast pacing and a focus on weapon variety keep matches lively. It shows up on Switch, PS5, and Xbox Series X/S, plus older consoles. Community reviews highlight its addictive replayability, though some note the learning curve for balancing movement and fire. A lean, frantic shoot-’em-up that leans into its chaotic charm.
