Duesseldorf/Germany, October 29, 2024 – Get ready to patrol the streets anytime, anywhere: The popular simulation game Police Simulator: Patrol Officers, developed by Aesir Interactive and published by astragon Entertainment, is now available on Nintendo SwitchTM. With the Nintendo SwitchTM Edition, players can experience the daily life of a U.S. police officer in the fictional city of Brighton — whether solo or with a friend in online co-op mode!


Check out the Nintendo SwitchTM Release Trailer for a glimpse into the world of Police Simulator: Patrol Officers!
 

Step into the Role of a Police Officer

In the Police Simulator: Patrol Officers Nintendo SwitchTM Edition, players can choose from eight different characters and start their career patrolling the open-world streets of Brighton. The challenges of their daily routines evolve as officers progress—from issuing parking tickets and controlling traffic to chasing down criminals, investigating major crimes, and solving complex crime cases. As players advance in their careers, they will unlock new vehicles, districts, and interactions, keeping every shift fresh and engaging. The game’s mechanics also monitor player behavior, rewarding professional conduct and penalizing mistakes, with severe missteps even leading to dismissal.
 

The Nintendo SwitchTM Edition offers both solo gameplay and online co-op. Two players can team up for patrols together, which enhances the experience and adds the task of coordinating strategic teamwork to their shifts.
 

Optimized for Handheld Play

After a successful release on PC and other consoles in November 2022, Police Simulator: Patrol Officers has been optimized for the Nintendo SwitchTM, offering engaging gameplay in both docked and handheld modes. The Nintendo SwitchTM Edition includes all the core content from the PC and console versions, with additional support for portable play.
 

Players can also purchase the Garage Bundle, which introduces six additional vehicle DLCs. This bundle is available separately in the Nintendo eShop or as part of the Police Simulator: Patrol Officers Nintendo SwitchTM Extended Edition.
 

Pricing and Availability

The Police Simulator: Patrol Officers Nintendo SwitchTM Edition is available now in the Nintendo eShop for 29.99 EUR / 29.99 USD (SRP) or the regional equivalent. The Nintendo SwitchTM Extended Edition, which includes the base game plus the Garage Bundle with six extra vehicles, is also available for 34.99 EUR / 34.99 USD (SRP) or the regional equivalent. A physical retail version of the Nintendo SwitchTM Extended Edition is available in select countries and includes the Interstate Police Vehicle DLC for free.
