Detroit, Michigan, is where RoboCop rapped in Terminator vs Robocop.

Information on the location[]

Detroit, with a population of over 680,000 residents, is the largest and most populous city in the state of Michigan. As of 2010, it is one of the United States' lead suppliers in the automotive industry, and is home to the Ford Motor Company, General Motors Corp, and the American offices of Stellantis, NV (formerly Chrysler). Due to Detroit's industries, it is popularly known as the "Motor City".

Due to the global economic collapse that began in 2006, which led to a spike in fuel prices, demand for large vehicles such as Detroit produced—among them SUVs and military-grade consumer vehicles—fell sharply, in effect causing the entire industry to implode upon itself. The city followed suit, and in 2013, the city of Detroit filed for financial bankruptcy. It now stands as one of the poorest and most mismanaged cities in the US, also with a violent crime rate among the highest in the nation.

Detroit also serves as the main setting for the RoboCop franchise. In the dystopian future of Detroit, the crime rate is very high, a problem which RoboCop is tasked to pacify. Omni Consumer Products (OCP) is the largest company in Detroit and controls much of the business, legal and illegal.

Trivia[]

  • Detroit is one of the few locations in the series to have other location(s) linked to it and used in later battles. It is heavily referenced in Henry Ford vs Karl Marx, which uses the Ford Piquette Plant as one of its settings.
