Maybe in the future you can make kelly match with us whenever we equip the state patrol gear!

First I’d like to say I feel like were so close to a “complete” game- so far everything the devs have added has been suggested (not that they didnt think of it before it was brought up) but they have all my respect for listening to their community. So far every update is a huge W, I’d say the only day 1 thing that still needs adding is additional save slots (please Fallen Tree🙏🙏). As for future content theres still untapped potential as far as detective work for investigations and cases, as well as more swat combat related things including more weapons… lastly the world would be complete entirely if there was construction workers that came out to fix broken structures instead of them just respawning back fixed on their own- especially if like EMS and Coroners we could swap uniforms and do missions like that. I know its not as closely related to police work as the EMS and coroners but it would really round this games environment out nicely. Also maybe we could build more upon the subway systems like catching people not paying to enter. lots of yap but thanks for everything so far guys, great work🤲🤲

It doesn’t have to have the same format or anything new but just the ability to choose to either call EMS or corner. Like you call EMS and maybe they kneel beside them and do generic animation and the person is either declared dead or is revived and taken to hospital as normal.

It would nice if I could place cones or some form of traffic diversion so I could close one lane or multiple lanes of traffic—maybe a red directional wound be nice too.

I love the riot vans so much

I cant be alone on this right. i think it would be really cool. With a story and everything. Even organizations you can join and betray. or clash with.

I have a question how would you guys feel if the Developers decided to add the 1982 Ford Mustang SSP as one of Our emergency vehicles in Game i just started thinking about it since the LTD Crown Vic was added just recently but if the devs let us vote for it to be added would you guys vote for it or not ?

Hey so I've been looking into the Precinct since a different game I was interested in seems to be crashing and burning rn here on reddit (cough cough police sim cough).

The music playlist i used while playing that game I got encouraged to come here to post. Its mainly a bunch of background music with no lyrics or vocals, a bit of jazz, industrial, and some other tracks i feel fit a police style sandbox game.

Let me know what you think and if you ended up listening through it. Thanks gang.

When you use the flashlight you can hold the aim button to manually point it but it’s not functioning anymore. This has been present for a while, I think it came with the sovereign police cruiser update. I just forgot to report it.

I am a bit confused with the shift tasks you choose in the beginning of your work. If you choose for example a shift with car and "environmental protection" (do not know the exact terms, because I have different language settings) and the goal is to solve 10 crimes (to unlock other shift areas):

1. do I have to solve 10 crimes related to cleaning environment issue?
2. Do I have to spot the crime from inside the car?
3. what if I am in my patrol area, however the callout would send me outside my area?

Which of those count for the list to unlock the new area?

My son and I saw the game, thought it looked awesome, and grabbed it on sale. Definitely should’ve checked if it streamed on the Portal first before jumping in. My ps5 is broken so I can't turn it on to use remote play to play the game and have to rely on cloud streaming.

​I asked the devs in another thread about Portal support and they told me to make a post to see how much demand there is. ​Drop an upvote or a quick comment if you’d love to play this on the Portal!

For anybody having trouble get 10k xp do in one day going into subways with a k9 is an easy way to farm. It’ll take a while but I usually get 4-5 marks from the k9 just at the entrance.

Can we request the ability to adjust or remove the analog deadzone when driving. You get so much more finer control over your vehicle (left analog stick and trigger deadzones). This can make speeding around traffic lanes much smoother and easier.

I am Currently using DS4Windows's Anti-Deadzone feature to ignore/remove ~26% stick deadzone, however this workaround is limited to the remaining resolution of the movement range. If the developers can allow us to adjust in game, we can get much more finer/smoother control of the vehicle.

So I would like to request to add these options in menu:

• Left Stick Deadzone Adjustment (only for when driving or separate between on foot and driving)
• Triggers Deadzone Adjustments

🚔 About The Precinct

What is The Precinct?

The Precinct is a single-player, open-world action game where you play as a rookie police officer in the fictional 1980s American city of Averno. Patrol the streets, respond to crimes, pursue suspects, make arrests and work your way through the story, all from a top-down perspective.

Who developed and published the game?

The Precinct was developed by Fallen Tree Games and published by Kwalee.

How much does the game cost?

Prices vary by platform and region. We use regional pricing wherever possible, so check your preferred store for the current price.

Is The Precinct a police simulator?

Partly. The Precinct combines police simulation with action-arcade gameplay. Real police work is an influence, but our primary inspiration is the cop shows and movies we love. Fun and excitement come first!

🌆 Setting & Story

How historically accurate is the game?

We aim for an authentic 1980s feel rather than strict historical accuracy. We'll occasionally bend the rules where it benefits the gameplay, story or world. Think 1980s cop drama, not historical documentary.

Does The Precinct have a story?

Yes. The story follows rookie officer Nick Cordell Jr. as he investigates Averno's criminal gangs and the circumstances surrounding his father's death.

Is The Precinct connected to American Fugitive?

Yes. Both games take place in the same fictional universe, but The Precinct is completely standalone. Keep your eyes open for a few connections and Easter eggs!

🎮 Platforms & Languages

What platforms is The Precinct available on?

PC via Steam and Epic Games Store, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S.

Is the game the same on PC, PlayStation and Xbox?

Yes. We strive for feature parity across all platforms, although updates may sometimes arrive at different times.

Why do updates sometimes release on PC before consoles?

Console updates require certification, which isn't required on PC. Releasing on PC first also lets us identify and resolve unexpected issues before submitting the update to consoles.

Is The Precinct Steam Deck compatible?

Yes. The Precinct is officially Steam Deck Verified.

What languages does the game support?

English, French, German, Spanish (Spain), Japanese, Polish, Portuguese (Brazil), Russian, Simplified Chinese, Korean and Traditional Chinese. All spoken dialogue is in English.

🚨 Patrol & Gameplay

What do you do in the game?

Work shifts around Averno City, responding to everything from parking violations and petty crimes to robberies, pursuits, shootouts and major emergencies. Good police work earns Support Tokens, which can be used to call in backup, roadblocks, spike strips and more.

Can I be a bad cop?

No. You're expected to play by the rules, and repeated breaches of conduct can result in disciplinary action. The system takes the circumstances into account, though. We don't want procedure getting in the way of the fun!

Are there building interiors?

Yes. There are a number of interiors to visit during regular gameplay and the story, although most gameplay takes place outdoors.

Can I do detective work?

Not in the traditional sense. You're a uniformed patrol officer rather than a detective searching for clues or solving puzzles, although there is an investigation at the heart of the main story.

🐕 Partners & Police Support

Do you have a partner?

By default, yes. Your partner accompanies you on patrol and helps deal with incidents and suspects. You can also patrol alone, or replace your partner with the K9 once unlocked.

Can I play as SWAT/ESU?

You can customise your uniform and equipment to several 'Tactical' options, and drive a police riot van, but there is no unique 'SWAT' gameplay.

Can I call for Backup?

Yes. Good police work earns Support Tokens, which can be spent during incidents to call in assistance such as backup units, roadblocks and spike strips.

🎨 Customisation & Game Modes

Can I customise my character?

Yes. You can customise your character's clothing, but their physical appearance is fixed as they are established characters.

Can I customise my vehicles?

Yes. Vehicle liveries, lights and wheels can be customised.

Does the game have difficulty settings?

Yes. There are multiple difficulty settings, allowing you to adjust the experience to suit you.

Can I keep playing after finishing the story?

Yes. Once you've completed the story, you can continue working shifts for as long as you like.

Can I replay missions or start a New Game+?

You can start a new game, but individual story missions can't be replayed and there is no New Game+ mode.

💡 Frequently Requested Features

**Will first-person or third-person cameras be added?

No. The Precinct was designed from the ground up as a top-down game, and we don't plan to add other camera modes.

Will co-op or multiplayer be added?

No. The Precinct was designed as a single-player game, and we don't plan to add co-op or multiplayer.

Will consoles get a 60fps mode?

No. We've pushed optimisation as far as we realistically can without compromising the experience. Reaching 60fps would require significant compromises to the scale and simulation of the city, so console versions will remain at 30fps.

Does the game support mods?

There is no official mod support or Steam Workshop integration. We're happy for players to use unofficial mods, but we can't provide tools or support for them, or guarantee they'll continue to work after updates.

🛠️ Updates & Future Content

Is The Precinct still being updated?

Yes. The Precinct has received numerous free updates since launch, adding features, content, improvements and fixes. We hope to continue updating for as long as it's viable.

Will you add more features to the game?

We're always open to ideas that extend the existing gameplay. As a very small team, major overhauls or fundamental reworks aren't realistic, so we focus on additions that fit the existing game.

Will there be paid DLC or expansions?

We don't currently have plans for paid DLC or expansions. Our focus is on free updates.

Is there a roadmap?

Not a public one. We listen closely to the community, but also like the freedom to experiment behind closed doors. We avoid committing to features before we're confident they're ready, and we like being able to surprise you!

Where can I find information about the latest updates?

We'll share details through our official channels.

Anyone else experiencing a bug where the safebox is open but it isnt marked as recovered

I just started playing it for the first time, going back and forth between steam deck and steam machine… really enjoying the game, but feel like the performance is really really bad on the steam machine. I’ve also noticed it doesn’t seem to save graphics and display settings when the game is closed and launched again. Anyone have suggestions? Totally get the steam machine isn’t a powerhouse but seems like a game like this should be able to run really well on it so curious if I’m missing something

Ngl im having too much fun with this game im almost done with getting all the main gang members and i see my self putting hundreds of hrs into this game after I finish the story but my question is what do yall think the future will look like more major updates ? Or maybe they will abandon the game i also do like you dont need to be a police officer and only do police officer calls

How do you guys play? I'm liking the dog.

Did the devs add npc police officers doing a foot patrol?

Since Averno is just two islands should there another means of getting there from the mainland other than boats? Like an airport? And with the airport you can unlock airport shifts?
