The game also features a brand-new Challenge Mode, allowing players to take part in various competitive events, along with controller support on PC and full Steam Deck compatibility. Updates also brought new weapons – revolver and sniper rifle – and two vehicles: Sina and Zenith. A wide range of new mechanics and quality-of-life improvements has also been implemented, such as fast travel, mission companions, civilian panic, pedestrian escapes, and the ability to search bodies. All these improvements come together to deliver a smoother, more polished experience, supported by numerous UI upgrades, new animations, and overall performance optimizations. But there’s more – for the biggest fans, developers at Crazy Rocks and publisher PlayWay have prepared a special collector’s edition. It will open for pre-orders on November 6th. The release of Contraband Police on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S is scheduled for November 7, 2025, and Xbox pre-orders are set to begin on October 30.

Your loyalty to the service will soon attract the attention of Oberankov’s gang – a ruthless criminal group that’s ready to do anything to maintain control over smuggling routes and eliminate anyone who stands in their way. Life at the border isn’t just paperwork – during chases, ambushes, and shootouts, your reflexes, equipment, and the condition of your outpost will determine your survival. Success is rewarded with additional resources that can be used to upgrade your facilities, vehicles, and gear.
