The Precinct (PS5)

Welcome to Averno City, 1983. In this neon-noir action sandbox, gangs rule the streets and the shadows of the past loom large. You are Officer Nick Cordell Jr., a rookie beat cop fresh out of the Academy and the first line of defence for the city's citizens. As you patrol the rain-soaked streets, you are not just fighting to keep the peace; you are on a personal mission to uncover the truth behind your father’s murder in the line of duty.

The Precinct is a stylish tribute to classic police cinema, blending a detailed police simulator with high-octane sandbox spectacle. You must navigate the shifting power struggles of Averno's criminal underbelly, responding to a wide variety of callouts. Your shift could involve anything from ticketing parking infractions to engaging in intense shootouts during high-stakes bank heists.

You can utilise an in-depth support system to call in backup, allowing you to deploy roadblocks, spike strips, and additional units to corner your mark.
