United Against Fire

Step into the boots of a U.S. firefighter and face high-stakes missions that require skill, strategy, and teamwork. From rescuing civilians to battling complex fire scenarios—such as electrical fires, grease fires, and explosive hazards—Firefighting Simulator: Ignite delivers a thrilling and authentic experience.

Teamwork is everything. Whether playing solo with AI-controlled teammates or teaming up in four-player cooperative multiplayer, you’ll need to work together to contain the flames and save lives.
 

A Leap Forward in Realism

Powered by Unreal Engine 5, Firefighting Simulator: Ignite offers cutting-edge fire, smoke, and heat physics for an unparalleled level of realism. To effectively battle each blaze, players must strategically deploy the correct extinguishing agents and firefighting techniques.

For the first time, players can customize their firefighter’s appearance, adding a personal touch to their experience.
