Experience all the excitement and danger of fighting blazing fires in Firefighter F.D.18. As a firefighter, break down doors with axes, use high-powered fire hoses to smother flames, and avoid collapsing floors while looking for trapped civilians. Firefighter F.D.18 pushes the PlayStation®2's graphic capabilities to its limits and captures all the realism and experiences of real life firefighters.

Set in a huge city, the game follows firefighter Dean McGregor as he becomes embroiled in a complex mystery involving the random eruption of fires within some of the area's largest buildings. Also covering the fires is TV news reporter Emilie Arvin, and as the game progresses the unlikely pair finds themselves working side by side as they seek out the perpetrator behind the blazes.

Viewed in the third-person, Firefighter F.D. 18's camera system trails McGregor as he enters the burning locations searching for trapped survivors and attempts to put the fires out. Players are introduced to the danger firefighters face every day as chemicals explode, backdrafts show their devastating force and flashovers threaten the life of McGregor and those he is attempting to rescue. The game also forces the player to think quickly using hoses, axes and additional equipment to extinguish the fires.
