Judge Dredd: Dredd vs. Death is a first-person shooter (FPS) featuring the popular DC comic book character, Judge Dredd. The game is set in the comic’s dystopian future, where crime is so rampant that law enforcement officers are now authorized to be the judge, jury, and executioner of any crimes they come across.

As it's quite an old game now, good comparisons can be found in the form of popular FPS, Duke Nukem 3D: 20th Anniversary World Tour, as well as Unreal Tournament 2004. The game features similarly dated graphics.

Become the Judge

Judge Dredd is a popular character from DC comics. The world of Judge Dredd is a dystopian one in which crime is pervasive that law enforcement agents (judges) are authorized to deal out the entirety of the judicial process, from apprehending a criminal to judging and executing them. The player will take on the role of a judge and dispense justice around the city.

First-person shooter action

The gameplay style of Judge Dredd: Dredd vs. Death is relatively standard first-person shooter fare for the time, with a short single-player story to tackle, two-player cooperative LAN play, and LAN battles with up to 32 players. There are also over 60 characters to choose from.

An authentic but dated shooter

Given the dated look and feel of Judge Dredd: Dredd vs. Death, it is likely to only appeal to fans of the franchise, many of which praise the game for its authenticity to the comic books. There is a short single-player story to play through, and the multiplayer aspect can be experienced with bot players if a LAN party can’t be arranged.
