We Love It's Guide to…

Sunset Overdrive

A contaminated energy drink turns much of Sunset City’s population into mutants. You play a customizable survivor navigating the outbreak, taking on missions and encountering eccentric characters as you try to make your way through the city. Getting around is central to play: grind rails and wires, bounce off objects, vault, and wall-run through the open city. Combat keeps you moving as you shoot mutants, robots, and human enemies with an unconventional arsenal. Missions, side activities, challenges, and collectibles offer ways to explore and progress. Weapons can be upgraded, while abilities, perks, and amps let you develop your character and combat style. The single-player campaign includes the Mystery of Mooil Rig and Dawn of the Rise of the Fallen Machines expansions.

In a soda-mutant apocalypse, a customizable survivor grinds, bounces, and wall-runs through Sunset City while fighting with bizarre weapons.
