This Is the Police 2 Reviews
It would be easy to dismiss this as a Fargo knockoff, instead of a game that’s trying to find its out story niche. It may be a bit disjointed in its pacing, but its core story is an engaging one, enough to keep me wanting to play through.
Overall, This is the Police 2 is an outstanding game. It’s fun to micro-manage your team and it really makes you proud for when you get situations right and manage to save the day.
This Is The Police 2 is shooting for something morally grey and messy but never quite has the narrative heft to carry it.
This is the Police 2 is a great example of how to present a Tactical RPG game on Consoles. Everything from the menus to the GUI is fully optimised for either the Mouse on PC or the Controller on Consoles – this may seem small, but there are some games out there which don't get this right. The game is full of action, excitement, humour, and manipulation – a perfect list of ingredients for a game about dirty cops, corruption, criminals and the law. If you've played the original game then you need to play this as it follows on directly. If you haven't played the original, either go pick it up or just jump right into this one as all the backstory is fully explained.
This Is the Police 2 is exactly the game that we were longing for. There were no games based on real-life events for a long time. you should behold the magic cast by developers in the campaign section, and hope that gameplay does not get monotonous over time. Graphics are on an acceptable level and despite outdated cutscene visuals. This Is The Police 2 can serve as a fun experience.

If you are a huge fan of the first This is the Police, you are in for an awakening. An awakening both good and bad, while some things such as the more in-depth officers and RPG like system were improved on, yet the over-excessive story and hard difficulty overshadows the improvements in those gameplay features. Some of these can be fixed with updates, others may not. I would love to see a third with the best of both worlds put in.
