Rescue Ops: Wildfire might just be the game to ignite a new era of firefighting sims

Share:

Here in Croatia, massive summer wildfires often strike the seaside, some deliberately set, others sparked by extreme heat, and watching firefighters battle the flames on TV makes you think: “That’s truly brave.” This is why Exkee’s firefighter simulation game, Rescue Ops: Wildfire, skips unrealistic nonsense and aims to pioneer the genre.

Rescue Ops: Wildfire places you in control of an authentic fleet of firefighting vehicles, including fire engines, helicopters, and water bombers. You’ll navigate to incident sites, rescue trapped civilians, clear forests with specialized equipment, and tackle flames head-on using immersive water hose systems. Every decision matters as you coordinate tactical support, such as calling in aerial water drops or setting up defense lines to contain the fire’s spread.

The game features two modes: campaign and sandbox. The campaign mode drops you into fire season with diverse wildfire scenarios across vast, real-world-inspired locations. In sandbox mode, you can test your skills against bigger, unscripted wildfires. Exkee has big plans for the Rescue Ops franchise. Wildfire is just the beginning, with the studio looking to expand into urban fire operations and other emergency rescue jobs.

Rescue Ops: Wildfire is set to release in late 2025 for PC via Steam and Epic Games Store, and Xbox consoles.
