About This Game

Crime and gun violence have reached crisis levels in a near-future Japan that was never supposed to look like this. The government's answer is JSWAT—the Japanese Special Weapons and Tactics unit, operating as a covert force deployed only for the most extreme situations. Gang warfare, hostage crises, threats that conventional police cannot contain: that is the job. You are the newest recruit, and the first mission is already waiting.
