SWAT: Global Strike Team (PS2)


The SWAT: Global Strike Team was founded in 2018 as an international offshoot of the U.S. SWAT organization. The GST is made up of specially selected SWAT officers and ex-military personnel who have shown the ability to adapt to and overcome any situation they encounter. Like the U.S. SWAT organization, SWAT: GST is a life-saving institution whose mission is to uphold the laws of its operating country, so all efforts must be made to use only necessary force. You are Mathias Kincaid, a former member of the U.S. Army’s elite Delta Force turned SWAT: GST element leader.

The elaborate storyline focuses on you and your two teammates: Tran, a veteran sniper, and Jackson, expert technical specialist. After assuming control of Kincaid, your objective is to command Ono and Garrett through several diverse missions while maintaining the tactical upper hand over your opponent. This means using the environment, the latest gear, the most advanced weaponry, the element of surprise, and anything else you can get your hands on to succeed. Using the full capabilities of your other two teammates is essential to mission success. In one mission, for example, you are given the task of eliminating a number of suicide bombers, which requires the use of the sniper to immobilize the suspects and the tech expert to diffuse the bomb.
