District 187: Sin Streets (Korean: 지구 187 : 신 거리) is a first-person shooter video game developed by Netmarble, a subsidiary of CJ Corporation. An online multiplayer, the game pits SWAT teams and gangsters against each other in urban combat.[2] The game was released on November 20, 2012,[3] with digital distribution through Steam made available on November 28.[4]
Gameplay
The game resembles Counter-Strike, including its "cops and robbers" setup, game modes and map layouts.[5] It features an extensive weapon modification system that allows both mechanic and cosmetic upgrades.[6] The game focuses on clans and team-based progression. Clans will compete for territory, with clan performance in four weekly "street fight" events determining possession of city districts.[2]
Business model
District 187 is free-to-play, with all weapons available for in-game currency only. Players are charged real money for cosmetic modifications and for upgrades that speed up the acquisition of in-game currency.[5]
Development
The game was developed for western audiences by CJ Corporation's North American subsidiary.[7] On October 3, 2013 the developers shut down the game servers and took the game offline. It is now no longer available.[8]
