Plot[]
At the Underground of World City arrives the train and a person comes out. During the monologue, which plays during the cutscene, it is revealed, that this person is the player's character and they came to World City to live and work here. Once a person comes out of the underground, they see the new world opened before them. They are ready for everything and set out on their new adventure, but it seems, that they are followed by the man in black. At first, person ignores that fact, but then they realize that this man keeps acting strange. Person soon finds out that a man has disappeared among the bunch of people and notices his bag going missing. Disappointed, they head to the nearest police station. Once person informs officers about that strange man and their stolen bag, they see this man once again, this time at the police station putting some arrested crook in jail. As it turns out, this man was an undercover cop who was meant to capture criminals by hiding among the civilians. Undercover Cop explains to the person that a crook he just captured belongs to the gang of Disassemblers, the biggest and the most dangerous crime syndicate in World City. Now as they know much, person decides to join the police force in order to bring peace and restore order in World City. They are not successful at first but once they prove themselves by interrogating an imprisoned crook and retrieving their stolen bag from that crook's fellow gang members, person finally convinces police force to let them join.
Commissioner McLeod of World City Police Department, once person receives their badge, awares them of crime sprees, many of which lead to the linking with a big mysterious crime syndicate. Those crooks, who attacked person, are connected with the syndicate, although leader of the syndicate remains unknown and there are even no suspects since it is unclear where syndicate hideouts are located and who might run them. Person, now called Rookie at the department, suggests to interrogate imprisoned thugs who can be connected with the syndicate, however they can't do so as they haven't got their uniform yet (though they got a badge): unfortunately, when Rookie joined the police department, there were no prepared uniforms left for them, so they have to wait now until their new uniform would be retained for them.
Soon crooks are interrogated by some other officers, and the police finally gets an information. The syndicate has several control points located throughout all World City, disguised as usual civilian buildings: one office, one dock at the port, a night club, a customs garage and a big bank. Commissioner McLeod decides to let Rookie take a task of infiltrating the syndicate from the inside by going undercover, since Rookie hasn't received their uniform yet.
Rookie decides to employ at the office at first. There they are greeted by Mr. Cake, boss of the office who treats his employees kindly but strict. At the office, Rookie is tasked with sorting some documents out, and the job seems boring until Rookie starts checking the documents: those are reports about different crimes committed by the syndicate. Rookie makes copies of some documents as an evidence and sends to the department in a folder. There, documents are investigated and Rookie is told that some of reports lead to the facility where the syndicate stores stolen bricks from various construction sites around the city. Rookie decides to visit that facility as an office employee and check everything inside. Once they get inside, they find out that bricks stored there are kept in a facility in order to use them for building more business sites which would link to the syndicate and give it a profit. Noting that and checking facility's weak points, Rookie heads back to the police department with their reports. Next day, a police squad led by officer Andrew Cover raids the facility, shutting down its work and arresting its workers, while another squad, this time led by Rookie, raids the office itself. However, turns out that office employees as well as Mr. Cake were prepared for the attacks: one of facility workers reported that Rookie visited the facility, although Mr. Cake didn't instruct them to do so. Mr. Cake became suspicious and quickly found out who Rookie actually was, that's why the whole office was ready for a police raid. Still, Rookie and his fellow officers manage to get through aggressive and armed workers to Mr. Cake himself and, after a short "boss fight", they arrest him as well as his employees. Thus, first control point of syndicate is shut down.
Afterwards, Rookie receives a message from commissioner who says that he is pleased with their work and suggests them to catch several criminals throughout the streets. Soon enough, Rookie receives another message but from Andrew, who reminds them that there is still much work to do with the syndicate. Rookie decides to go undercover again and employs at the dock which belongs to the syndicate. There they join a gang of smugglers and are tasked with acquiring stolen bricks from other smugglers. Rookie does that once by boarding a hovercraft and sailing to the cargo ship where they are given several containers with bricks which they successfully deliver back to the dock. While on their way, a smuggler, who accompanied Rookie during that deal, informs Rookie that those smugglers are the only source of stolen bricks for the syndicate now since the facility was shut down. For this reason, the dock also serves as the main storage place for those bricks. Upon returning to the dock, Rookie leaves it for a while and heads to local Coast Guard HQ where they show their police badge and report about smuggling in the sea, revealing location of cargo ship. Coast Guard chief then orders some of his workers to ally with some of police officers and infiltrate the cargo ship, while Rookie heads back to the dock. Once Rookie is back, captain of the smugglers immediately instructs them with acquiring more bricks from the same cargo ship. However, when Rookie and smugglers accompanying them arrive at the cargo ship, they witness it attacked by Coast Guard. While smugglers decide to aid their allies and fight back, Rookie secretly takes on a coast guard uniform to disguise themselves and aids Coast Guard in their infiltration. Soon Coast Guard, not without Rookie's help, is victorious; during his interrogation, one of the arrested crooks mentions a name of Vinnie Pappalardo being a seller of bricks, even though it was claimed before that bricks were stolen. Rookie reports that to their fellow police officers and decides that it is time to raid the dock, asking for a squad to help them. Some time after, Rookie and a police squad once again led by officer Cover raid the dock with remaining smugglers, however captain of smugglers intentionally sets it on fire and escapes on his hovercraft. Rookie follows him on a jetski and, after some pursuit in the river canals of World City, finally arrests him, thus shutting down another asset of the syndicate, and afterwards assists fireman Gavin on his boat extinguishing fire on the burning dock.
With an information about Pappalardo given to him, Commissioner McLeod tasks Rookie and Andrew Cover with tracking down Vinnie. Gathering information from their colleagues, they find out which car Vinnie drives and decide to get help from traffic control officers. Those officers use police surveillance truck as their main base of operations in a city center. Much to Rookie's amusement, as it all looks innovative and unreal to them, traffic control officers quickly track down Vinnie and discover his destination through the highway, so Andrew suggests Rookie to take a ride with him in an undercover van with a camera, then meet up with an officer on the highway and chase Pappalardo once Cover gives a signal. On the way officer mentions that surveillance truck is used as the main base of operations against the syndicate now, as they seem much more dangerous than just a gang of crooks. Once they finally reach their destination, Rookie meets up with officer Jack Nitro in his highly upgraded police car effective for catching street racers in which this officer is very prominent. Upon meeting Rookie, he asks them several questions regarding driving rules and if player answers them correctly, Nitro will let Rookie drive his car during the chase. Officer Cover soon gives a signal regarding Vinnie Pappalardo, so both Jack and Rookie go after his car and take him to the custody once he is caught. There, Pappalardo is interrogated by Andrew.
After making several threats to the whole WCPD, Vinnie finally starts speaking. He claims that the syndicate is actually his rival and the only interaction his organization had with it was setting syndicate's night club on fire. As Cover remembers that were no reports of that club being on fire before, he immediately realizes that the club is on fire right now. He reports to Rookie about that, who quickly heads to the fire department of World City, once again meeting their friend fireman Gavin, who assembles a crew and along with them and Rookie onboard the firetruck, heads to the smoking clubhouse. After helping firemen fighting the fire, Rookie finally gets to the club manager and rescues him out of the club only to arrest him afterwards for being linked to the syndicate. This manager, on the other hand, in the custody provides with his assistance, telling everything about the next syndicate's assets: a customs garage. He reports about it being linked to several illegal street racing societies, as well as its head mechanic also partaking in some races. When asked why was he helping, club manager says that syndicate is terribly weakened and thus no match to the police force already.
Upon delivering manager to the custody, Rookie meets up with a businessman named Phillip Greens attempting to release his friend and business partner Vinnie Pappalardo from there. While Rookie tries reasoning with him, explaining that Pappalardo is suspected to be linked with a nightclub being set on fire, Greens begins speaking in a more harsh tone, leading to Rookie rudely asking businessman to leave. Overhearing this conversation, Commissioner McLeod and Officer Cover praise Rookie's bravery, yet still remind them they should be respectful towards people regardless of their attitude, as Phillip is a person who actually assisted WCPD before, being a major ally to them, despite his harsh behavior. A bit later, Rookie is also contacted by officer Jack Nitro, who tells them to meet him by the customs garage belonging to the syndicate. There, Jack tells that he just saw head mechanic driving to another street race and suggests a plan with Rookie going undercover and partaking in that race too, while Nitro will wait in a perfect spot to trap all of the racers and arrest them. He also mentions that while the main action is going to be on the road, customs garage will be infiltrated by another police squad. Once Rookie finds a perfect car to race, they head to the starting grid and action begins. During the race, Rookie receives a message from Jack that they should come first in the race, as he will distinguish them that way and won't try to harm them. At the finish line Rookie crosses it first and then afterwards it's immediately covered by a giant oil tank truck, so other racers at the finish line are trapped and therefore are arrested by officer Nitro. Upon getting all racers in police cars ready to be delivered to the custody, Jack tells Rookie that furthermore they can partake in similar races just to assist him in catching them once again, or even catch them head on themselves if they approach those racers in a police car.
After dealing with customs garage, Rookie realizes that there's only one last syndicate's asset to deal with for them: the bank. As it turns out during the investigation in surveillance truck, that bank belongs to Phillip Greens as an owner, much to confusion of several police officers, especially including Andrew Cover. He suggests Rookie on dealing with it by speaking straight to Greens in his penthouse, however there businessman denies everything, claiming that it's all a big mistake and he doesn't know anything about this. In this penthouse Rookie also speaks to Penny, Phillip's loyal butler, who tells that there actually is a connection to the syndicate's crimes and Greens' bank, as there are money stolen from honest people. Old butler tells Rookie of group of vigilantes, who are about to rob the aforementioned bank and deliver the money stored in there to the foundation which will return it to people whom it was originally stolen from. Rookie decides to aid the vigilantes and joins them in planning the heist, while a group of officers continues investigating how exactly Greens is connected to the crimes of the syndicate.
Day of the heist comes. Rookie and vigilantes raid the bank, taking all the money from the vault and escaping through the backdoor. There they are unexpectedly greeted by a police force led by officer Andrew Cover. All those vigilantes turn out to be high ranking crooks from the syndicate, while Cover tells Rookie that they were about to rob the bank just so the syndicate's leader could escape from World City with it. Surveillance truck group found that the main base of operations is located at Greens' penthouse, so judging how many business assets syndicate had before, Phillip Greens is the main suspect to be a leader of the syndicate. While the rest of the police group return money to the bank and deliver arrested crooks to the custody, a squad led by Rookie and Andrew raids the penthouse of Greens. While fighting their way through many crooks and guards, they eventually end up in the big room where it turns out that the leader of the syndicate has been not Phillip but old Penny the butler all along. While tired of merely serving his boss, Penny decided to steal some money from Greens' safe, so he could arrange a big crime syndicate with several business assets, and afterwards steal all of Greens' money from both his safe and his bank, so he could leave World City and never be caught by WCPD. Final battle with the most elite syndicate crooks and Penny as well begins, and it is only interrupted by Phillip Greens returning home to take his luggage for his vacation in Paradisa. Angry at Penny for causing a mess in his penthouse and leading police force there, he knocks his old butler out with his favorite golf club and apologizes to the Rookie's squad after finding out what was going on. He also praises Rookie for everything they have done and tells them that he owes them now. Officer Cover and Rookie arrest all of the remaining crooks, including Penny, afterwards.
In the game's epilogue, Vinnie Pappalardo is freed from the custody after paying a fine for causing damage to the syndicate's nightclub. All of assets are either destroyed or sold to other businessmen, including Pappalardo who bought customs garage for his street racing society called Night Shift. Officer Jack Nitro continues catching illegal street racers, especially looking for those who are from a street racing society called Midnight Club. Officer Andrew Cover becomes a leader of investigation group aboard the surveillance truck, where everyone continues working for the order in World City. Rookie finally receives their police uniform and is also promoted to a more senior officer after almost single-handedly dealing with the syndicate.
