In the original This Is the Police, players responded to a crime by choosing which officers would be sent out and letting them deal with the problem, only occasionally needing to step in to make critical decisions. In the sequel, however, you’ll be much more involved in the action thanks to the revamped combat system.

​
The new turn-based combat system looks to have been inspired by the likes of XCOM, with players taking advantage of cover and moving their team around a tile-based battlefield.
​It also looks like officers will be able to earn perks through progression. At around the one-minute mark in the trailer, we see officer Rankin awarded the Hunter perk, which allows him to locate traps and warn other team members about them.

The focus on combat is to defuse dangerous situations with as few casualties as possible, disarming perps and taking them down using non-lethal methods due to the risks involved in gun fights; it only takes a single bullet to end an officer’s life.

This Is the Police 2 will release sometime later this year on Xbox One, PS4, Switch and PC.

What do you think of the revamped combat system? Let us know below.​
