The Precinct Rolls Out Free Update with Solo Mode and Customization Features This Week
Neon-noir crime sim The Precinct is stepping up its game with a free content update coming this week to PC (Steam and Epic Games Store), PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S. Publisher Kwalee and developer Fallen Tree Games have revealed the update brings two highly anticipated features: Solo Mode and robust customization options for vehicles and your in-game character.
Walk the Beat Alone in Solo Mode
The newest addition, Solo Mode, lets players take on the gritty underworld of Averno without backup for the first time. As Officer Nick Cordell Jr., you’ll be on your own—just your patrol car, your instincts, and a city full of criminal chaos. Whether you’re breaking up bar fights or racing to stop a bank heist, Solo Mode offers a fresh and more immersive challenge for those who want to live the lone wolf fantasy.
Squad Cars, Suits, and Swagger: New Customization Features
Customization also gets a big boost in this update. All six patrol vehicles now feature five distinct livery designs—ranging from classic police blues to edgier, stylized looks to match your precinct’s attitude or your personal flair.
Officer Nick also receives a fashion-forward upgrade with 10 new outfits, 8 hats, and 4 types of glasses to help players tailor their policing persona. Whether you want to channel gritty street cop or undercover style icon, the options are there to make Averno City your own.
Save Big During Summer Sales
Alongside the new content drop, The Precinct will be part of the Steam Summer Sale starting June 26, and also features a PlayStation Store discount until July 2, 2025—making it the perfect time for new players to jump in.
