Electronic Theatre delivers a preview of Realtime Worlds' forthcoming APB, set to be released exclusively on PC early in 2010, though no payment model has yet been decided...

Suggested to be limited to only four players per game-established set-up, with Realtime Worlds’ on-hand representative extremely cagey when pressed as to whether this would be upped in the final release, the matchmaking will call upon players in the local vicinity to take part in one of the many action sequences player can embark upon. The example given was that of a single criminal stealing a car. Should this criminal be a newcomer, with current records providing evidence on an inexperienced player, it’s likely that only one or two Enforcers would be asked to pursue the criminal. However, should they be of a greater skill, three Enforcers of a higher rank may be called-in to take down the lawbreaker.
