About the Game

SWAT Commander: Prologue is the FREE introductory version of our team tactical shooter and does not reflect the final version of the game. Check out its full version's page for a description of its features!

In the prologue, you face the challenges of our second mission – Hot Reception. Team up with your friends in a SWAT squad or go in solo to investigate an auto shop where a violent shootout between rival gangs took place. Secure any evidence of criminal activity, bring the perpetrators to justice, and restore order!

Make yourself familiar with the mission's briefing and find out what dangers emerged to threaten innocent civilians – you're about to face them yourself. Equip your SWAT operative accordingly with a selection of rifles, handguns, armors, and tactical gear to tackle the belligerent gangs.

Create a multiplayer lobby to invite other players or go into the mission solo or join the lobby of another SWAT commander. Coordinate and discuss your mission plan down to the equipment each of you will be bringing or the entry point you'll be choosing.

Select one of the three available game modes to determine the type of mission you'll be embarking on – high-risk warrant, barricaded suspect, and bomb threat. Your operations' goals can change between bringing down dangerous suspects, neutralizing entrenched criminals, and defusing an explosive device.

Enter the Bernard Tire & Auto Center to begin the SWAT intervention. Secure your mission objectives and earn an evaluation of your performance. Remember to keep your eyes open and use every tactical advantage you can think of. Defend the innocents and bring the perps to justice!
