SWAT 4 is something of a modern cult classic in the PC Shooter gaming space. It was originally released back in 2005 and was a mainstay as a LAN Party and online favorite. Over the years, the game has become pretty hard to come by, particularly the Gold Edition, as online digital distributors like Steam, UPlay, Humble Bundle, and EA Origin didn't carry it. Amazon currently has a listing for it for the small fee of $140, and there's only one copy left as of this writing.
DRM-free digital distributor, GOG.com has apparently acquired the rights to sell the game exclusively, and as such, it is available right now and retails for 9.99 USD / 7.99 GBP / 9.29 EUR / 13.29 AUD. On top of that, GOG has put all previous SWAT titles on sale at 75% off and have highlighted the incredibly realistic (and favorite) Elite Force mod to add an extra spice to your game.
Here's a list of features courtesy of the game's GOG.com store page.
- Exploding with action: 21 intense missions in fully-detailed environments.
- Vast Arsenal: From deadly assault rifles and powerful shotguns to less-than-lethal stun guns.
- Advantageous Equipment: Variety of tools available to observe, access, and control situations.
- Play with Others: Numerous CO-OP and competitive multiplayer modes extend replayability.
- Quick Mission Maker: Create detailed custom missions for yourself and your friends.
If you're a PC Gamer and a fan of Tactical Shooters, you owe it to yourself to give SWAT 4: Gold Edition a look.
