In New Trailer, Story-Driven Police-Strategy Game Unveils its Tactical Combat Features

Vienna, Austria/Minsk, Belarus, April 13th, 2018: Back in the big city, Police Chief Jack Boyd, the protagonist of This Is the Police, was too deeply mired in bureaucracy to pay much attention to field tactics. But in Sharpwood, a cold frontier town where a young woman named Lilly Reed has recently become sheriff, you'll need to take a new approach: you'll have to take your cops under direct control during particularly difficult and dangerous missions.

In such situations, the game will switch to a new turn-based combat mode system. Gather a team of your finest police officers (or use your drunk and stupid bums - you don't always have the luxury of being choosy!). Take up advantageous positions and don't forget: the police are supposed to arrest suspects, not kill them. You'll have to carefully study the terrain, constantly adapt your plans, stealthily approach your suspects and use non-lethal weapons and equipment. Unless, of course, you bartered them for a dozen cans of tuna. Sometimes gunfights are almost impossible to avoid, but be careful: This Is the Police 2 doesn't have hit points. A single bullet can cost a cop their life.

About This Is the Police 2
Just like the first game, This Is the Police 2 is a mixture of adventure and management genres, and this time it enjoys further mechanics that will strengthen both the strategic and tactical parts of the game. It won’t be enough just managing the equipment of your policemen and keeping in mind their individual skills. Every challenge requires the player’s direct participation on a tactical combat scene, and the outcomes will depend on every decision you make. Now your subordinates aren’t just some resource; they are living people with their own strengths, weaknesses, fears and prejudices, and you'll have to reckon with all these things in order to survive.

This Is the Police 2 will be released later this year on PC/Mac, PlayStation®4 computer entertainment system, Nintendo Switch™ and across the Xbox One family of devices including Xbox One X.
