Introduction
Highway Police Simulator for the PS5 promises a unique blend of traffic enforcement, narrative intrigue, and simulator gameplay, but in its current state, it’s a mess of poorly executed ideas, game-breaking bugs, and unintentional comedy. If this game was a highway, it’d be riddled with potholes, stuck in perpetual construction, and missing half its signs.
Gaming Heaven
The narrative element is a bold move. Choosing between a police family or street-kid background adds flavour to your character, though the impact on gameplay is invisible. Visually, it’s a decent effort for a simulator, with detailed cars and environments that are, at least in theory, immersive. The idea of having a narrative-driven simulator with custom character options shows ambition, even if none of it works as intended.
Gaming Hell
Unfortunately, the game is plagued by bugs worse than a roach-infested diner. Vehicles defy physics by launching into orbit, NPCs vanish mid-traffic stop, and lag spikes occur so frequently it feels like the game is trying to simulate a broken internet connection.
The core mechanics are underdeveloped and unfinished. Basic policing tools like flashlights and tasers are inexplicably absent, with promises of future updates that might save this sinking ship. Right now, playing feels more like beta testing an unfinished project than enjoying a game.
Final Judgement
Highway Police Simulator is a dumpster fire wrapped in a police badge. While there’s potential beneath the chaos, it’s buried under layers of glitches, broken mechanics, and missing features. If you’re tempted to buy it, don’t. Wait for updates – or better yet, spend your money on a game that isn’t stuck in a perpetual state of repair.
