Firefighting Simulator – The Squad will give you plenty of opportunities to take on the battle against the flames alone or in multiplayer as you team up with up to three other players in over 40 diverse missions. As a firefighting, your responsibilities at sites will include scanning the location, assessing the hazardous situation, and coordinating your very own firefighting squad. You will tackle fires in different scenarios such as forest fires, aircraft fires, or even building fires in residual or industrial structures.
Each fire in the game will be unique and will possess its own set of challenges. Depending on the fire source, you will need a unique strategy for containing the fires. In solo, your squad will be played by AI however if you head into multiplayer, you will be able to join with your friends giving you more control over the entire scenario. You will need to work as a team and use the skills of each firefighter and take into account some advanced mechanics such as water, smoke, heat, backdrafts, flashovers, grease fires, and more to contain fires from different sources such as electronics, chemicals, and explosions.
