About Bionic Commando: Rearmed

✦ AI summary

Swing, shoot, and grapple your way through a modernized 2.5D remake of the classic NES side-scroller, featuring new co-op modes, expanded abilities, and challenge rooms that test your bionic arm skills. This faithful reimagining preserves the original's addictive swing-and-shoot gameplay while adding new bosses, weapons, and online leaderboards that connect to the full 3D sequel.

Classic side-scrolling gameplay is reporting back for duty with Bionic Commando Rearmed, a remake of the classic NES game, out now on PC.

20 years after the 8-bit classic was released, Bionic Commando Rearmed recreates the world of the original with a complete "2.5D" visual revamp. Bionic Commando Rearmed preserves the original's mix of swinging and shooting in an intense 2D side-scroller, all to the tune of a brand-new soundtrack based on the classic 8-bit music from the NES masterpiece.

But Rearmed is far more than just a remake - it features all-new modes such as the 2-player co-op play, smarter enemy AI, new bionic arm abilities, new weapons, bigger bosses and online rankings. Faithfully sticking to the story of the NES game, Bionic Commando Rearmed tells the story of Nathan "R.A.D." Spencer's first mission, sent in to retrieve captured agent Super Joe from the hands of the Imperials.

Fans of the original story can expect to see all the characters from the NES version, as well as the memorable moments that made the title so popular with fans. Rearmed will also link-up to its 3D "big brother" coming to PC, with unlockable content, in-game hints and a story that spans both games.

Key Features:

  • Classic Bionic Commando side-scrolling gameplay, updated with new abilities, weapons and bosses
  • 2-player co-op mode
  • Total modern visual and audio revamp
  • Cross-game interoperability – complete specific parts of Bionic Commando Rearmed to unlock new content and hints for the Bionic Commando sequel
  • Challenge Rooms – obstacles courses and swing puzzles that test your skills, with your best times ranked against other users in online leaderboards
  • Top-Down Stages – the return of the top-down scrolling gameplay of the original's 'Enemy Encounter' stages, with remixed music from the classic Commando!
  • Multiplayer – up to 4 players can face off in a frantic melee of shooting and swinging!
  • In-game art designed by Shinkiro, one of Capcom's most talented artists

What Steam players say

Recent verbatim reviews from Steam — separate from playze.io community reviews below.

✦ AI summary

Bionic Commando: Rearmed is praised by players for its entertaining gameplay, unique grappling hook mechanics, and humorous dialogue, but it suffers from serious technical issues on modern systems that require workarounds like installing legacy PhysX drivers or patching the executable file to run at all. Most players feel the game itself is worth experiencing once you get it working, though many express frustration that Capcom continues selling it in a broken state without providing official fixes.

Right click on Bionic Commando Rearmed in your Steam games list. Hover over manage, then click browse local files. A file explorer window will pop open. Locate bcr.exe in that file explorer window and right click it. Click on properties. Now click on the compatibility tab. Check the box that says "run this program in compatibility mode for:" and select Windows XP Service Pack 3. Click apply. Click the button below that says "change high DPI settings." Check the box that says "Override high DPI scaling behavior." Choose "application" from the dropdown menu. Click okay. Then click apply and okay. The game should now work. Launch it and enjoy.

I completed Bionic Commando Rearmed on Windows 11. I encourage you to read this review if you intend to do the same, as it [b]does not launch properly on Windows 11[/b]. [h3]WINDOWS 11 NOTES[/h3] After installing, the game will silently crash on launch, without even citing an error. Doing the following two things fixed it for me: 1: Install legacy NVidia PhysX drivers which the game relies upon. The following link should take you to NVidia's site. https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/drivers/physx/9_10_0224/physx-9-10-0224-driver/ I have seen other users use up to version 9-13 as well. 2: Restart your computer -- Mine did not work until I restarted after the install. 3: Write over the game's installed EXE with a patched version. The file is hosted on a Google Drive (use at your own risk, but I experienced no problems): https://drive.google.com/file/d/1C7cJgaaf5-NQ1iqbRiHCm7Oot21LE2KS/view This patched EXE will also fix some issues that prevent the hacking minigame from working properly on high-resolution monitors. [h3]REVIEW[/h3] I did not play this in co-op, and I doubt any of my friends would be interested. Might be fun, hard to say. To be frank, as I finished Bionic…

I have a love/hate relationship with this game. First, I'm not recommending anyone buy this game; I will give my feelings on the game itself below, but the most important thing you must know is that the game is very unlikely to run as-is on any modern machine. It will very likely crash to desktop. I had a few false starts downloading different old drivers, and then finally got it running after finding an altered game executable elsewhere that doesn't break due having more than 4 cpus. It's pretty unacceptable that Capcom continues selling this game in a broken state. Now for the actual game. I love that they reimagined a classic NES title that already had a unique mechanic (no jumping, movement is only possible for grappling claw techniques), and iterated on it, creating an intricate and both frustrating and satisfying movement system, while retaining much of the original game's charm. The grappling takes some getting used to, but once it starts clicking it becomes really cool moving through levels. The boss fights are generally more like hazardous puzzles which makes them interesting (at least the first time, there are some repeats with small tweaks). I appreciate that they rem…

It is very fun and entertaining gameplay, along with funny dialgogue parts. I saw a lot of reviews complaining about having to set the game up for the pc, but in the end, it is all worth it, as it is a very entertaining and fun game.
