Overview

Urban Chaos: Riot Response is a first-person shooter by Rocksteadystudios. Although technically competent, it received a lukewarm reception, and has mostly been forgotten. Despite the similarities in the titles, Riot Response is unrelated to Eidos' 2000 third-person action adventure, Urban Chaos (Game).

In Urban Chaos: Riot Response you play as Nick Mason (Character) an Elite member of a super police force known as T-Zero. A gang known as the Burners have decided that they want control of the city, and will do whatever it takes to get their way. Buildings have been destroyed, running pitch battles between the gangs and the police are common place and the streets are no longer a safe place to be.  A riot brakes loose and it is too much for the regular police to handle. That's where Mason and his team come in. Using his riot shield and what ever weapons he can find, it is up to Mason to send the hoards of insane and heavily armed deviants back to to where they came from. Mason has to work with Fire Fighters, Police Officers and Paramedics to get through the hazardous environments created by the Burners.
