Turbo Overkill is a first-person shooter and the debut project of Trigger Happy Interactive. It stars a cyborg living in a cyberpunk-inspired dystopia, tasked with destroying the artificial intelligent controlling his hometown.
The game is set in a dystopian, cyberpunk future. Its protagonist is Johnny Turbo, a cyborg mercenary returning to his hometown of Paradise. Once there, he finds the city taken over by an AI called Syn, which possessed the citizens and implemented a reign of terror using its cybernetic army. In desperate need of money, Johnny accepts the seemingly suicidal job to destroy the AI, facing off against its minions and rival bounty hunters.
Turbo Overkill is a first-person shooter inspired by such series as Doom and Quake. The player must fight their way through hordes of enemies using various weapons and special abilities. The game heavily emphasizes mobility. Johnny can use a grappling hook to draw himself closer to surfaces, run at extreme speeds, wall jump and slide into enemies, slicing them open with his chainsaw leg. Killing enemies grants money, used to upgrade the character and his weapons.
The firearm roster is vast and diverse, including dual revolvers with homing bullets, a shotgun with a grenade launcher attachment, a sniper rifle that teleports Johnny to where the bullet hit, ripping the enemy to shreds from the inside, and many others. There are also special weapons players can install in Johnny's body, such as an arm-built rocket launcher. Upgrades can be purchased or taken from defeated bosses.
Turbo Overkill features a singleplayer campaign with over twenty levels, many secrets and optional challenges.
The game's visuals and audio are both very impressive. The smooth gameplay, lighting and artstyle portraying a futuristic dystopia are all very appealing.

Thumb Culture: 4 / 5
Turbo Overkill is a high adrenaline throwback to first person shooter origins. It sets itself apart from others though in its cyberpunk, vibrant atmosphere and curious weapon and body modification systems. If you haven’t picked it up already on PC, maybe the console port is more your style. Turbo Overkill definitely earns itself the Thumb Culture Gold Award.

By just about every single metric for evaluating a boomer shooter, Turbo Overkill excels and delivers in spades. I had a near limitless amount of agency to play as I want and still enjoy a boomer shooter experience without frills, gimmicks, and other artificial difficulty spikes. It oozes creativity while taking players on an exhilarating ride through a cyberpunk apocalypse. It's the perfect blend of gore, seriousness, and silliness. Turbo Overkill is a literal spectacle of unfettered, high-octane boomer shooter gameplay. Call it a symphony of destruction, mayhem, gore, and violence. Call it bloody good fun. Call it whatever you want, really, so long as fun is somewhere in that mix. The world of Turbo Overkill is one worth exploring and desecrating with Johnny Turbo's chainsaw leg.
Try Hard Guides: 8.5 / 10 by Christian Harrison
Turbo Overkill is a dark and grungy FPS adventure from Trigger Happy Interactive that takes advantage of its scenario to provide hours of interesting and exciting levels. The fast-paced movement and variety of ways to defeat your enemies almost make up for some of the slower moments as you try to figure out where to go. However, these issues are minimal and FPS fans are sure to enjoy it nonetheless.
