Dex PS4 – 2D Open-World Cyberpunk Action-RPG, Hacking in Cyberspace, Augmentations, Non-Linear Choices – Retail Disc

The Dex PS4 disc brings the 2D side-scrolling, open-world cyberpunk RPG developed by Dreadlocks Ltd. First released on PC in May 2015, Dex arrived on PlayStation 4 on 7 July 2016 according to Sony’s store. It is an action role-playing adventure focused on exploration and non-linear play. You explore, fight, talk and hack your way through Harbor Prime, a neon-lit cyberpunk city, while a mysterious organisation hunts you. Play as an assassin, hacker, diplomat or gunfighter, and shape your character with skills and body augmentations. It is a single-player game rated PEGI 16.

Hunted in the City of Harbor Prime

Dex is set in Harbor Prime, a dense cyberpunk city of towering buildings, street gangs, corporations and hidden networks. You play Dex, who becomes the target of a mysterious organisation and must find out why while staying alive. The official description promises a mature story told through interactive dialogue, where the people you meet and the choices you make shape how events play out. Because the game is non-linear, you decide which leads to follow, which factions to help and how to deal with each threat. The tone is dark and adult, with crime, corporate power and technology at its heart, which is reflected in its PEGI 16 rating for strong language and strong violence. Fans of classic cyberpunk fiction will recognise the themes of control, identity and surveillance.

Fight, Talk or Hack Your Way Through

Dex mixes several styles of play in a hand-drawn 2D world. Combat happens in real time, with melee attacks and firearms, so you can tackle enemies head-on as a fighter or gunfighter. If you prefer stealth, you can approach as an assassin. Dialogue gives the diplomat route, letting you talk your way past problems. The standout feature is hacking: Dex can enter Cyberspace, a separate digital layer where you fight defence programs to open doors, disable cameras and turn security against enemies. Character customisation lets you invest in skills, and augmentations, which are body implants, unlock new abilities. Exploration is rewarded across an open city of districts, side quests and hidden areas, with side-scrolling movement that suits players who enjoy 2D RPGs.

Single-Player Adventure

Dex is a single-player experience with no multiplayer or online modes, according to the official Steam listing from the developer; Sony’s store does not list player counts for PS4. The PlayStation Store lists genres of Action, Role Playing Games and Adventure. Because the game has no online component, there are no servers to shut down, and the full adventure works offline from the disc. Full voice acting is in English, with subtitles in several languages on the PC version. Progress is saved locally.

Who This Is Not For

Players who want modern 3D graphics: Dex is a 2D side-scroller from 2015 with a retro hand-drawn look. There is no multiplayer, co-op or split-screen. It is rated PEGI 16 for strong language and strong violence, so it is not for young children. Voice acting is English only, with no Arabic, and fans of fast arcade action may find the RPG pacing and dialogue slow.
