About the game
Barkour is defined by its distinct gameplay and a roster of specialised gadgets that help you complete each mission. Whether you go in full stealth, guns-blazing or use your barkour skills to avoid danger, it is in your paws to decide how to approach each encounter. The freedom to act as you see fit is the hallmark of a true agent, right?

Agent T.H.U.N.D.E.R. is a highly trained professional who is well aware of the stakes of each mission that he takes part in. However, he is still a playful dog at heart, who will charm you time and time again. His trusty AI sidekick, A.L.F.-RED, will ensure that his playful nature doesn’t interfere with his mission completion.

During gameplay, you’ll explore stunning and diverse locations all over the world. From a perilous greenhouse complex to an amusement park filled with head-turning attractions (and dubious safety standards), each mission will test your skills to the fullest!

Key features:

A serious agent, and a not-so-serious dog
