The game that RON is a spiritual successor to. I also wished this game got an HD remaster treatment, it was ahead of it's time along with F.E.A.R. (2005), that really changed the FPS genre.

History / About:

In SWAT 4, the player leads a SWAT element in resolving various situations, such as Hostage Rescues or apprehensions of dangerous subjects, simulating the experiences of real-life Special Weapons and Tactics operators.

Setting:

Unlike previous installments in the Police Quest video game series, which followed LAPD SWAT officers through missions set in Los Angeles, California, the single-player campaign of SWAT 4 takes place in New York City, during the game's then-future of 2008 to 2009. During the single-player campaign, the player is tasked with leading a five-man police SWAT team, also known as an "element", through 13 missions.

Campaign:

In SWAT 4, the player first starts off by undergoing training at Riverside Training Facility, under the guidance of police Lieutenant Sonny Bonds. The training will teach players how to clear rooms, fire weapons, command his "element", and learn how to use the snipers. Thereafter, players will start to be deployed to various places for operations, such as hostage situations, barricaded suspects and habitual high-risk warrant services.

SWAT 4: The Stetchkov Syndicate is an expansion pack for SWAT 4 released on February 28, 2006 in North America and is based on the fictional Stetchkov family.

Various improvements to the game have been made, such as the addition of VoIP capability to multiplayer games, seven new single-player missions, two new multiplayer modes and seven new weapons. Players may also use their fists to punch suspects and civilians if they are not compliant. Suspects will now also pick up their weapons if they are not swiftly arrested. 10 player co-op with up to two teams of five, stat tracking, ladders and rankings for multiplayer along with the ability to hold commands in single-player missions until the lead operator gives the signal were also added. An option for the appointment of lead operators to issue commands for the red and blue teams in multiplayer was also added.

This is the final game of the Police Quest series to date to be released on Windows.

In August 2014, Activision reactivated the Sierra Entertainment label, opening up a future for the franchise as Sierra holds the IP for any future installments of the series.

Few years later... Ready Or Not was announced back in 2016 I was lead to believe, the reveal trailer was shown in 2017, early access was finally launched on December 17, 2021.
