Bob Colayco of [[GameSpot]] gave the game a rating of 3.1 out of 10, saying the game "is terrible from top to bottom, suffering from bland, derivative gameplay, simplistic level design, brain-dead AI, and a buggy graphics engine that chugs even at low resolution." Colayco said "The game was originally slated to ship for both the Xbox and the PC, but it doesn't take much time with the PC version to understand why the console version was scrapped.", saying that Konami quietly released the game and appeared to care little about it.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.gamespot.com/pc/action/apocalyptica/review.html |title=Apocalyptica for PC Review |accessdate=2008-03-05 |author=Bob Colayco |date=[[2004-06-02]] |publisher=[[GameSpot]]}}</ref> |

Apocalyptica is a third-person shooter computer game that was developed by Extreme FX and published by Konami in April 2004.
Gameplay
Players are able to control several different religious super-soldiers (with 4 classes distinguishing between the larger amount of characters) that are technologically advanced in a mission to destroy Neo-Satan and his minions in locations like outer space and Nu Hades, as well as in Hell itself.
There are several weapon sets that the player can select (some only unlocked in the later levels) that include a pistol and sword, a rifle, several spells, and in the later levels large two-handed swords which heal the player with some of the damage done.
There are a variety of different missions which have different ways to be completed. Some missions are simply objective-based, requiring the player to reach the end point of the mission, which may be accesed by using buttons or levers to open gates. Others require the rescue of hostages, and some require holding all of certain points on the map, while others are a fight over a certain object.
In multiplayer mode, there are the classic games of Capture the Flag, Deathmatch, and Team Deathmatch against other players or the AI.
