What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“With City Bus Manager, we had a very positive Early Access experience. Working closely with our community allowed us to shape the game together with players, prioritize the right features, and continuously improve based on real feedback. The response was incredibly motivating and helped us build a better and more successful game.

Because of this, we would like to follow the same approach with Global Rescue. Early Access gives us the opportunity to involve you directly in the development process again - from gameplay improvements to deciding which features and content updates matter most.

We believe Global Rescue will benefit greatly from this collaborative development, and we’re excited to build it together with you.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“The duration of Early Access largely depends on how the game evolves together with the community and when we feel it has reached a complete and polished state.

Based on our current plans, we expect Global Rescue to remain in Early Access for approximately 1 to 2 years. However, this timeframe may change depending on development progress, player feedback, and the overall reception of the game.”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“The full version of Global Rescue is planned to expand significantly in terms of features, content, and overall depth. Even in Early Access, the game already offers a solid core gameplay loop that we plan to build upon with additional systems, mechanics, and content.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The Early Access version of Global Rescue is already fully playable and offers a complete core gameplay experience.

It currently includes over 200 missions and additional side objectives, as well as 23 different vehicles. In addition, the game already supports modding through the Steam Workshop, allowing players to create and share vehicles, skins, and missions.”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“We plan to slightly increase the price during or after Early Access as the game grows in scope and receives additional content and features. Our goal is to reflect the overall value of the game, so a potential price increase towards full release is possible.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“We plan to involve the community closely throughout the entire development process. Players can share ideas, discuss features, and give feedback through Steam Discussions and our Discord.

In addition, we have integrated a dedicated in-game feedback system that allows players to report issues and submit suggestions directly from within the game. These suggestions can be seen and supported by other players, helping us identify which ideas are most requested by the community.

Based on this, we plan to regularly evaluate the most popular suggestions and use them as a foundation for upcoming content updates, ensuring that development is driven by what players want to see most.”

About This Game

In Global Rescue, you take command of building and operating your own emergency services base. Coordinate missions, manage personnel and vehicles, customize your base — and take on the thrilling day-to-day operations of various first responder units: fire department, police, EMS, and even SWAT.

Thanks to realistic map data, you can freely choose your location anywhere in the world, from your own hometown to any city around the world!

Make sure your fleet and employees are always ready for action. Upgrade vehicles, train your staff, and expand your base using an extensive research tree.

From extinguishing fires and handling traffic accidents to questioning witnesses, treating medical emergencies, or coordinating high-risk SWAT operations, Global Rescue offers a wide range of authentic emergency scenarios. With the integrated mission editor, you can also create your own operations to face fresh challenges, all within a vibrant 3D world!

Using accurate Overture Map data, you have the freedom to establish your base anywhere in the world! Paris, Tokyo, Washington, Rio de Janeiro, or right in your hometown. Where will you begin your service?

Plan your base layout carefully: ensure enough space for wash bays, parking and everything needed to keep your emergency vehicles ready for deployment. At the same time keep office spaces, break rooms, and sanitation facilities in mind to keep your staff efficient.

Continuously expand and optimize your base to meet the growing demand and daily challenges. A wide variety of objects and furniture gives you the freedom to customize your base just the way you like it.

In Global Rescue, you'll have access to a wide selection of emergency vehicles across police, fire, EMS, and SWAT units. Build your fleet from 23 highly detailed vehicle types, including American, European, and Asian vehicles, either in standard liveries or with custom skins.

Ensure you have enough parking spaces, garages, wash bays, and fuel stations to keep your vehicles ready at all times. Only a well-maintained fleet can handle the challenges ahead!

AI Generated Content Disclosure

The developers describe how their game uses AI Generated Content like this:

All of our art assets are handmade by our artists. We only use AI for things that would not be technically possible otherwise.

We use a text-to-speech solution for the voices because we want to include custom names for vehicles, streets and employees (which can also be changed) in the messages. We also want to support modding missions with voices. None of this is possible with pre-recorded footage.
