The SWAT: Global Strike Team was founded in 2018 as an international offshoot of the U.S. SWAT organization. Made up of specially selected SWAT officers and ex-military personnel that have shown the ability to adapt and to overcome any situation they encounter SWAT: GST is a life-saving institution, whose mission is to uphold the laws of its operating country. So, all efforts must be made to use only necessary force. You are Mathias Kincaid, former member of the U.S. Army's elite Delta Force, turned SWAT: GST element leader. The story line focuses on you and your two team mates: Tran, a veteran sniper, and Jackson, expert technical specialist. Your objective is to work with Ono and Garrett through several diverse missions, while maintaining the tactical upper hand over your opponent. Use the environment, the latest gear, the most advanced weaponry, the element of surprise, and anything else you can get your hands on to succeed. The capabilities of your other two team mates are essential to a mission's success, for example you are given the task of eliminating a number of suicide bombers, which requires the use of the sniper to immobilize the suspects and the tech expert to diffuse the bomb. Command Tran and Jackson by issuing orders, using either the D-pad on your controller or the optional headset. This allows your team to move quickly and effectively, making even complex manoeuvres easy to perform. The optional microphone will take advantage of the expansion slot on the Xbox controller. Lead Kincaid and his team from basic training through five chapters (21 missions) linked by a powerful story line. Team-up with a friend and battle through 10 co-op only multiplayer missions. If working together isn't your specialty, choose the Deathmatch option, and fight head-to-head.
