Free Haiti Hostages

Gangs hold three hostages deep in the alleys of the capital. One armed robot dog goes in.

You command Unit 02, a robot dog armed with a rifle and a sniper scope. Over three chapters you fight through a maze of narrow alleys, climb ladders onto rooftops, and free three hostages taken by the Baz Kraze gang: Nurse Nadège Pierre, schoolteacher Wilson Jean and radio reporter Sophia Laurent. Each one must be escorted back to the police truck alive. Then comes the gang's leader, Le Roi.

The real story

In late August 2026, armed men stormed Kenscoff, a hillside community above Port-au-Prince. According to the United Nations, at least 47 people were killed and more than 50 kidnapped, one of the largest mass kidnappings in Haiti in recent years. Some of the victims had sought shelter in a church compound.

Kenscoff is part of a much larger crisis. Gangs control an estimated 70% of the capital, and violence has driven a record 1.5 million people from their homes. The UN counted more than 3,000 people killed in the first half of 2026 alone, and reported kidnappings rose by more than 40% in the spring.

A new UN-backed Gang Suppression Force began arriving in 2026 to replace the earlier Kenya-led mission. Haiti's government has also turned to armed drones, a tactic human-rights groups say has killed civilians too. General elections, the country's first in more than a decade, are scheduled for December 13.

About the game. Free Haiti Hostages is fiction. Unit 02, the Baz Kraze gang, Le Roi and the hostages are invented and do not depict real people or groups. The setting and the kidnapping crisis are real.
