Officers! It’s time for action! ????
Get your body into action and stop that fleeing suspect: The Tackling Update is coming on December 5th, 2023, to Police Simulator: Patrol Officers across all platforms!
With this update, we focus mainly on tackling, a minimap on foot patrol and quality-of-life improvements to overall enhance your playing experience. Let's jump into it!
Officer, the suspect is fleeing!
Tase or tackle? With the new tackling option, catching a fleeing suspect becomes way more versatile due to different options in handling the situation. The feature presents a more challenging way to interact with NPCs, bringing you closer to the action!
Let's get to training! Police tackling a fleeing criminal is a critical and dangerous situation that requires a well-trained and experienced police officer! Every situation is different and must be handled cautiously, particularly when an officer may need to resort to physical force.
Call to action! To tackle a suspect, start running, get in close range with the fleeing person and in line of sight to get a button prompt. Use the button to tackle the target to the ground and handcuff them before they escape! Due to safety reasons, an officer is only allowed to tackle a person from behind or from the side, which will also detain them automatically. Make sure to always choose a place with enough space to be able to safely tackle a criminal!
Minimap on foot patrol
Getting lost easily? We got you, with the new minimap on foot patrol! With this new feature, you will be able to easily find places and get around more efficiently and intuitively!
Quality improvements
To improve your overall playing experience in the game, we made numerous improvements and fixes! Among others we have removed the sun glare screen, have rectified unreasonable CP loss, fixed the unpleasant flashing lights inside the precinct when starting the game and fixed an issue that showed wrong illegal item intuition feedback!
Of course, we’re always working on further improvements to enhance your life as a patrol officer!
Introducing: The newest generation of vehicles ????
We're happy to announce two new DLCs! Explore the amazing advantages of both to keep Brighton safe and sound:
The Guardian Police Vehicle (GPV)
A spacious and handy choice for a great police officer!
With this new generation vehicle, you will be able to transport up to 6 arrested criminals and drive them to the police station yourself! Earn +10 SP for each prisoner you successfully transported and put in their cells, with the reward doubled when transporting 6 prisoners simultaneously.

The Surveillance Police Vehicle (SPV)
A versatile choice to support you at observing the streets of Brighton!
This cutting-edge addition to the police vehicle force will detect violations by simply following a suspicious target vehicle and giving its driver intuition feedback. It works similar to pacing and fills another colored bar in the same position. When a violation is uncovered, you can pull over the target vehicle and further investigate the suspect.

The GPV and the SPV will both be released on December 5th, 2023 alongside the update, each at a small price of 2,99€ / $2,99 USD or the equivalent in your region.

With The Tackling Update, we will also publish the full patch notes, so you can see the full extent of the improvements.
Once again, there will be content creators receiving full access to the update prior to the release date while it is still in submission for the public release. Their ability to showcase might give you a chance to take a sneak peek at the content, so stay tuned!
At the moment, we want to focus on quality improvements and bug fixes and have therefore moved first aid to update 13 while ensuring more bug fixes now and in the upcoming months.
We hope you’re excited about the new features and improvements coming on December 5th! Thank you so much for your support!
