Publisher Numskull Games and developer Ground Shatter have announced that buddy cop FPS RICO London will launch on consoles and PC this September.

The game takes place all in one night in London on New Year’s Eve 1999. Playing as a pair of cops, you’ll be making your way up a high-rise tower as you take down a bunch of East end gangsters trying to stop you from making your way to the top of the building. The arcade style action promises several gamemodes, with different enemy types.

Each storey of the tower is a different stage, and you’ll also have to worry about rescuing civilian hostages. Defeating enemies will also allow you to collect more weapons and performance enhancing perks. You’ll be customising and adjusting your perks and loadout between floors as the night progresses. And as a buddy cop shooter, you’ll be able to play with a friend either locally or online. The game is a follow up to 2019’s Rico, by the way, which you can read our review of here.

You can check out a trailer for RICO London below. The game is set to launch on September 2 on Xbox One, PlayStation 4, PC and Nintendo Switch.
