SWAT 5 is on it way call SWAT:Special Division READ HERE!
Division 9: Irrational?s Unreleased Zombie Survival Shooter | Irrational
SWAT: Special Division
Introduction
SWAT: Special Division carries the police flag to a new front. In a world where scientific experimentation has yielded supernatural horrors, not all threats are human – and Special Division is tasked with protecting the nation against the terrors that do not officially exist.
As a squad leader in the Special Division, you will command an elite set of SWAT officers, equipped with the best the nation has to offer in both lethal and non lethal deterrents. Against you stands an unknown array of supernatural enemies and their allies, with an agenda no one fully understands – until you put your life on the line to stop them.
With SWAT 4, Irrational Games focused on improving the basic gameplay that made SWAT 3 such a success. We improved the squad mate AI, added in new and exciting non-lethals to emphasize SWAT’s police heritage, revamped the leadership system, added character dialogue to give enemies and teammates more personality and brought the graphics to a competitive edge.
SWAT: Special Division will continue the improvements in these areas, but it will combine a dark, sophisticated horror story with tension filled action to bring the player a darker, grittier experience. The Swat franchiseis uniquely positioned to bring strategic first-person shooter action and a suspense-filled horror story together. Action in SWAT 5 naturally alternates between the frantic shooting of an entry gone awry and the tense strategic preparation for suspect contact. Now, behind every door there could be another armed suspect… or something far, far worse.
