Sunset Overdrive is an open world action game developed by Insomniac Games. Originally released in 2014 as an Xbox One exclusive, the game made its way to PC in November 2018. It includes all of the DLC from the original version, but lacks the Chaos Squad online co-op mode.
All content that was originally unlocked via pre-order, the Weapon Pack DLC, or Chaos Squad has been moved to the in-game shops. Missions will reward OverCharge (in-game currency) even when replayed, rather than just the first time[1], presumably to compensate for the increased amount of it required to unlock everything.
The PC version of Sunset Overdrive launched with some issues, most notably a mouse sensitivity bug that was later patched.[2]
The port was criticized for being basic, with a lack of graphical settings and a fixed 16:9 aspect ratio.[3]
