In the 1988 novelization of the movie, a clue is given as follows: a news report states that Sylvester Stallone has died after a failed head transplant at the age of ninety-seven, but his latest movie "Rambo - the Old Blood" will be released soon. This would place the year Robocop is set in as 2043 or 2044 (actually, it makes sense given the technological level seen in the film (half-human cyborgs, ect.) However, in the mini-series Robocop: Prime Directives, Murphy's gravestone gives the year of his death as 1992, suggesting that the first film is set in 1992 & 1993.
