A Chance for Redemption?
The arrival on Game Pass and the continued support with free updates and new DLC could be a significant moment for Police Simulator: Patrol Officers.
When we first reviewed the game, we awarded it a 1.5/5, stating: “There’s absolutely no faulting the premise of Police Simulator: Patrol Officers… But as soon as you look past that initial premise, pretty much everything else in Police Simulator Patrol Officers goes wrong. It looks rubbish, has visual pop-up galore, draw distances that are no longer than your arm and a whole load of issues relating to how the world around you unfolds… Police Simulator: Patrol Officers should be handing in its badge for lack of care to the community, well before its shift is over.“
With the new Garage & Tools Update promising improvements and the game now accessible to millions via Game Pass, players can decide for themselves if Brighton has cleaned up its act.
The free update is available now for all players. Game Pass subscribers can download Police Simulator: Patrol Officers today, and those looking for extra visual flair can seek out the new Vehicle Customisation Pack on digital stores.
