This Is the Police headed to PS4, Xbox One next month

THQ Nordic’s dark and gritty police-themed strategy/adventure game is officially making the jump from PC to consoles later next month.  March 22nd to be exact.

The noir-style title, which was developed by Weappy Studio, received mixed reviews when it was released on the PC not all that long ago, so we’re sure that THQ Nordic is hoping that the game will find a larger audience on the PS4 and Xbox One.   This Is the Police will hit retail and digital storefronts.

See some screens and game details below!

This Is the Police is a strategy/adventure game set in a city spiraling the drain. Taking the role of gritty Police Chief Jack Boyd, you’ll dive into a deep story of crime and intrigue. Will Jack reach his retirement with a nice stack of bills, or will he end up broken … or worse?

  • Your mission is clear: make $500,000 in 180 days, before Jack Boyd reaches retirement. How? That?s up to you!
  • Decisions, decisions! This Is the Police is all about a dark story and how you react to it. Whatever you decide, your choices will influence the game ? and the fate of Jack Boyd.
  • The Good, the Bad, and… the Ugly? The Chief of Freeburg’s Police Department deals with all kind of people. It is up to you to find the bad guys, and decide how to deal with them.
  • Carry out your duties. As head of Freeburg PD, Jack deals with all sorts of challenges every day: responding to emergencies, managing his officers, defending the department against City Hall and a corrupt mayor, and much more.
  • Solve Investigations and gather evidence against the criminal gangs of Freeburg.
  • Deal with the competing powers of the city. Everyone offers you favors, and each one comes at a price.
  • Rich and fully voiced story: Jack Boyd is portrayed by Jon St. John, the voice of Duke Nukem.

This is the Police is available for PC, Mac and Linux. The game will be released to consoles on March 22nd, 2017 as digital download and retail box.
