Guards! ! Vanguard Edition

Guards! is a co-op action game for up to 16 players. You and your fellow officers fight through the gang-ruled streets of New Alestead, relying on teamwork to get out alive and bring criminals to justice.

The gangs of New Alestead

Three rival factions control the city: the Fogtoof Boyz, a violent and destructive Orc gang; The Commision, rogue merchants whose desire for power has put them on the wrong side of the law; and The Corpse Cult, a religious organization that turns its followers into mindless zombies.

Each gang has a kingpin. You work your way up the gang’s ranks to discover the kingpin’s location, then assault their hideout. Taking out the kingpin takes out the gang.

Missions and stakeouts

Missions can involve arresting people, securing contraband or escorting important VIPs out of the city. Before attacking a criminals’ hideout, you can observe from the shadows to learn patrol patterns, identify the gang members you face and spot environmental objects that may help you.

Fight and improvise

Criminals attack without waiting to face you one at a time, so you need to act quickly and coordinate with your partners. Almost anything can be used as a weapon, including crates, barrels, planks, pieces of doors, arms, City Watch-approved civility moderation tools and your feet. Criminals can be brought in dead or alive.
