About This Game
- Fanbyte
"If Sam Raimi's Evil Dead movie made the Chainsaw Arm an iconic piece of weaponry, wait till you see the leg chainsaw."
- Sportskeeda
"Turbo Overkill isn't just one of the best boomer shooters on the market right now - this is one of the best games on the market, full stop."

Half-metal, half-human, all murder machine
Heavily inspired by some of the all-time greats like Id's Doom & Quake, and Apogee's Duke Nukem 3D, with stunning cyberpunk visuals, Turbo Overkill is the most savage FPS ever released by Apogee. You play as Johnny Turbo, augmented with hidden arm rockets and a chainsaw that extends from your lower leg allowing you to slide-slice enemies wide open.In this Blade Runner-meets-DOOM hellscape, Johnny returns to his hometown of Paradise and finds its entire population possessed by Syn, a rogue AI, and its army of augmented minions. Desperate for enough money to outrun his past mistakes, Johnny takes on the impossible job of destroying the greatest AI ever created. Rival bounty hunters want to claim the prize first. Nothing is easy in paradise.
Turbo Time, wall-running, dashing and grappling hooks, oh my
Turbo Overkill takes over-the-top to never-before-reached heights. Activate Turbo Time(™), a new form of slow motion with a twist. Build incredible speed by wall-running and dashing. Slide on your chainsaw leg, eviscerating foes and opening up bosses for critical damage, and go car-surfing on the hoods of flying cars. Blast away with the Twin Magnums, which lock-on and instagib several foes, the Boomer Shotgun and its attached grenade launcher, or the Telefragger sniper rifle, which teleports Johnny inside an enemy before they explode from within.Race through two dozen stages packed with secrets, bonus arena stages, and white-knuckle combat puzzles. Find game-changing collectibles to unlock punishing modifiers like triple-monster-speed and insta-kill. Combine all of Johnny’s weapons and powers to outsmart, outgun and outrun the corrupted legions.
TL;DR:
o Kill a boss, get its augment (special power)o Play Spider-Man with your grappling hook
o One-up Duke Nukem with your chainsaw slide-slice kick
o Kills = cash. Use cash to install augments, upgrade your weapons, and add new abilities in your talent tree
o Be a ghost runner while wall running
o Attack from above riding the hood of your flying car like a kung-furious badass
o Mini-rockets built into your robotic arm? ✔
o This. List. Will. Grow. Wishlist the game to see it happen

“Turbo Overkill is fast, frenetic and ferocious—excess personified,” said Sam Prebble, one half of Trigger Happy Interactive. “This is the game we’ve always wanted to play; making it is a dream project. Relentless enemies, extremely deadly and fun weapons, speed and precision above all else—if you love Quake III Arena, modern and classic DOOM, or Apogee’s legendary first-person shooters, you’ll feel right at home in Paradise.”“As the guy who helped launch the shooter genre with Wolfenstein 3D, Rise of the Triad, Duke Nukem 3D, Max Payne, and Prey, I haven’t been this excited about an FPS since the golden era of Apogee/3D Realms,” wrote Scott Miller, founder. “Turbo Overkill is a sandbox of fun and original gameplay ideas that come together like a night of melty hot pizza and your favorite cold, frothy brew. Playing this game made me a Turbo Lover all over again.”

The longer you play, the more boring and repetitive it gets...
Great energetic shooter; i loved it but...... i wish i could say it is my most fave game ever. I won't say that Because i'm literally HEARTBROKEN that the last few chapters are so tiresome, frustrating and eventually the final chapter of the game is impossible to pass for a veteran FPS lover like me. DO you like challenges? Yes i do, i did but I do think that finishers of this game broke their keyboards with anger. It is so hard that i had to find a god mode for cheat, out of frustration and anger. This is a huge MINUS; That's why this won't be in my "best ever games" pantheon. The whole game is superb level design beauty; sometimes unnecessarily long but worth it. There are like 30+ chapters and it takes one night to play it for 45-55 minutes at least. For a casual middle aged player like me, it is a good investment of time. If you don't like long episodes, you may get bored easily. Only a veteran FPS player can bear it. Gameplay is the mixture of all modern best FPS games, for e.g....
The game is good, great even, but the sound design fucking SUCKS! The guns sound like chirping birds!
The sequel to sex
as good and as fun as Ultrakill but long levels
An amazing shooter with a lightning-paced speed, fun and diverse weapons, levels and monsters, complex bosses and a chainsaw leg to boot. If you like Doom and Ultrakill, you'll feel right at home here
By far the most crispy, well-executed movement shooter there is - it doesn't introduce a whole lot to the formula, but it completely perfects it. Fantastic looping level design that organically makes use of the same arenas in old ways, and a very fun toolkit. The build options with augments are a bit limited, but still add quite a lot of depth. It also has the best vehicle segments I've seen in an FPS, which was especially surprising to see from a movement shooter. I was groaning when I first saw the car and knew I would have to give up my double slide jump airstrafe leg gambits, but the way it's implemented really complements the fluidity of movement on foot Extremely good, very underrated, 10/10
Sometimes power fantasy, sometimes overwhelmed, but always very fun and brutal.
Loved it! The movement kept me entertained the whole time. Solid story, guns, levels, and enemies.
