If you’ve ever wondered what it’s like to be on the other side of the riot shield, Riot Control Simulator is giving you a change to find it, and it’s free to try right now.
Boots on the Ground
Riot Control Simulator: Rookie Day is a free prologue out now on Steam, putting you in the botts of a fresh-face riot officer learning the ropes. It’s a gritty, satirical look at what happens when authority meets unrest, all wrapped up in a choice-driven simulator from indie studio Corpix Games.
You’ll face down angry crowds, make snap decisions, and walk the line between order and chaos. Whether you go in swinging or take the softer route is up to you.
Tactical Gameplay Meets Tough Choices
The full game, launching on PC in late 2025 (with consoles following in 2026), will expand with a full campaign, larger city maps, riot vehicles, water cannons, and more. The game blends realistic riot control tactics with a moral choice system that shapes how missions play out.
You’ll handle protects, check IDs, make arrests, and choose how to use your gear, or whether you even should. The devs say it’s all fictional and tinged with satire, but it definitely looks to raise questions along the way.
