A hybrid RPG and command-adventure game set in the Mobile Police Patlabor universe.
The briefing
Kidou Keisatsu Patlabor: 98-Shiki Kidou Seyo! is an original scenario based on the Mobile Police Patlabor manga and anime franchise. The player takes the role of a new Division 2 recruit shortly before a silent military coup attacks headquarters.
The game combines traditional Japanese-style RPG movement and combat with command-adventure sequences. In these sections, players can ask characters about different subjects, investigate points of interest, and collect and use a variety of items. The recruit initially travels alone, with additional characters joining the party later.
Developed and published by MA-BA, the game was released for the Sega Mega Drive/Genesis on October 23, 1992.
