Is Shakedown - Hawaii still worth playing in 2026?

An open world action game from Vblank, Shakedown Hawaii extends the spirit of Retro City Rampage with a pixel art top down parody of gangster games, where an out of touch CEO buys up and schemes to build a business empire. The satirical humour about the business world, the unbridled retro action and the freedom to wreak havoc make it a snappy, funny title. The deliberately dated pixel art and the repetition divide. A good game for fans of old school arcade action and biting humour on PS3.
