Overview
All Points Bulletin is a third-person tactical shooter set in San Paro, where crime has taken over the city. Pitting criminals against enforcers in objective-based gameplay. It's customisation system is one of the game's foremost features, allowing players a big varriety of styles.
This game is free to play, and is continuously maintained. It has a web-based store-front where you can buy various in-game items, as well as a subscription to increase the speed of your progression.
