Kidō Keisatsu Patlabor: 98-Shiki Kidō seyo!

Kidō Keisatsu Patlabor: 98-Shiki Kidō seyo! is a title from the Mobile Police Patlabor series that presents an original story. The player assumes the role of a newly assigned officer in Division 2, who must immediately help the unit counter a sudden military takeover of their own headquarters.

Its gameplay blends two distinct modes. While exploration and combat follow a traditional Japanese RPG format, interacting with specific environments shifts the perspective to an adventure game style. In this mode, dialogue options, environmental investigation, and inventory management become the primary focus.

Initially a solo endeavor, the recruit's mission gradually becomes a team effort as other characters from the division join the party. The adventure progresses through the use of numerous collected items and information gathered from conversations.
