[h3]“All available ACPD officers are being dispatched to Walton City to assist with containment. Lethal force is authorised.” - The Chief

You thought Averno City was dangerous!

We’re excited to announce that we’ve partnered with Into the Dead: Our Darkest Days to form the Surviving the City Bundle.[/h3]



[h3]The Surviving the City Bundle includes:[/h3]

The Precinct, a top-down action adventure game with an 80s neon-noir aesthetic. Averno City, 1983. Gangs rule the streets and your father lies restless in his grave. Clean up the city, uncover the truth, and embark on thrilling vehicle chases through destructible environments in this neon-noir action sandbox police game.

Into the Dead: Our Darkest Days, a side-scrolling shelter survival game that tasks you with guiding a desperate group of zombie apocalypse survivors to safety. Walton City has fallen to a zombie outbreak. Lead a band of desperate survivors from refuge to refuge by scavenging, crafting, and fighting in a relentless struggle for survival. Plan wisely, stick together, and — above all — keep moving if you want to make it out alive.

If you already own The Precinct or Into the Dead: Our Darkest Days, you’ll still be able to take advantage of the bundle. Instead of buying the full bundle, however, you’ll be given the option to complete the set and receive a 10% bundle discount on the other games, which will stack with any other discounts that are available on the games at the time (including our 15% launch discount!).

[p][/p][p]The new K-9 system lets officers deploy a fully trained working dog from the precinct kennels. Your partner can be washed, fed and customized there — breed, harness, collars and more — before heading out on patrol. The dog will obey commands, ranging from subduing dangerous attackers, pursuing fleeing suspects, or sniffing out concealed narcotics.[/p][p]
[/p][h3][/h3][p]A new callout tasks your K-9 with tracking a wanted suspect using a recovered scrap of clothing. If you're on duty without a dog, you can summon a K-9 unit as backup via your radio. A purpose-built Station Wagon variant offers dedicated transport, though the dog will readily ride shotgun in any patrol car![/p][p][/p][p]Check out our brand new trailer for the update here 👇[/p][p][/p][previewyoutube][/previewyoutube]
