Developer Fallen Tree Games has announced a new major content update for its hit neon-noir police game,The Precinct, which will add a new solo mode and some fresh customization options for Officer Nick Cordell Jr. and his squad car of choice. Fans ofThe Precinctwill be able to download the update on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC for free later this week.
After launching to mostly positive reviews from players back in May, Fallen Tree Games outlined itsfuture plans forThe Precinctand promised to continue updating the unique police game with new bug fixes, quality-of-life improvements, and more. The studio has since gone on to release multiple updates for the title, featuring some important fixes, such as one that was causing some players to lose their saves. The most recent patch came earlier this month, with another host of bug fixes that ensured players' gameplay experience remains as smooth as possible. But now that the bug fixes and general improvements are out of the way, Fallen Tree Games is ready to start pumping out some new content for players to check out.
The Precincthas already proven to be a big hit with players, but now Fallen Tree Games has given fans even more reason to patrol the streets of Averno City with the game’s first major content update. The patch will be available to download later this week on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC via Steam and the Epic Games Store, with two significant new features for players to check out: solo mode and new customization options. For those who might not have picked upThe Precinctjust yet, but are eager to check out the game’s first major content update, now is the perfect time, as Fallen Tree Games has also confirmed thatThe Precinctwill be a part of the Steam Summer Sale starting June 26 and will also be discounted on the PlayStation Store until July 2.
The Precinct Update Adds New Solo Mode
As seen in the new update trailer above, players will be able to takeThe Precinct’s cop adventuresto a whole other level with the game’s new solo mode. Now, when beginning a new patrol, players have the option to hit the streets on their own and turn off their partner. How this will affect the overall flow of gameplay remains to be seen, but it will likely be a whole lot more challenging tackling all of the crime on the streets of Averno without Kelly by your side, so it’s best to think wisely before heading out alone.
There are also some brand-new customization options for players to check out forThe Precinct’s wide array of squad carsand protagonist, Officer Nick Cordell Jr. All six squad cars now feature five slick new livery options, while Cordell Jr. also gets a stylish upgrade with a range of customization options. Players can now choose from ten different outfits, eight hats, and four types of glasses to create a look that suits their own policing persona.
