~ Description of Garland Square as mentioned in the attract mode

Garland Square is located in the outskirts of London. It is comprised of Drycreek Plaza, Belforte Hotel (name not revealed in the Arcade version), Garland Park, Garland Technology Center, Geyser 1 and Grassmarket Street.

Drycreek Plaza (ドライクリークプラザ Doraikurīku Puraza?) has department stores on the second floor selling products such as CDs, arts & crafts and sports equipment (in the Special Story Mode, there is also a department store selling fashion apparel). It has an open area on the first floor. Special Tactical Force (S.T.F.) operatives start attacking from the second floor, and an infantry fighting vehicle rams into and attacks when they are at the open area.

Garland Park (ガーランドパーク Gārando Pāku?) has open shops and a floating pavilion at the center supported by open linkways connecting Drycreek Plaza and Garland Technology Center on higher ground. It is the location where the S.T.F. operatives first arrived to secure Garland Square and a large attack helicopter attacks when they are at the floating pavilion.

Garland Technology Center (ガーランドエレクトリックビル Gārando Erekutorikku Bīru?) has office and research blocks. It also has an area on the upper floor under construction. U.R.D.A. special agent Tiger starts attacking from an office block while Edge starts attacking from a research block. Both of them attack the S.T.F. operatives at the area under construction.

Geyser 1 (ゲイザー (ワン) Gēizā Wan?) is an experimental atomic reactor constructed by Garland Electric, located 5 km (3 miles) underneath Garland Square and completed on 18 April 1997 (the date is only seen on the PlayStation 2 version). Derrick Lynch overloads it and attacks the S.T.F. operatives in the control room.

Grassmarket Street has a city feel with shops, restaurants and an open area. Experimental stealth defense droid Meta Morphic A-0940 attacks Claude McGarren at the open area.

Belforte Hotel has a casino and a rooftop swimming pool. Jared Hunter attacks with U.R.D.A. air units when Claude McGarren rescues Melissa Kessler at the rooftop swimming pool.

Crimson Beach (named Crimson Sea in the PAL version) is the sea that the Belforte Hotel overlooks. Jared Hunter attempts to make his escape using an armed cruiser as the S.T.F. operatives follow him mid-air via helicopter.

Story[]

On August 2000,[1] Garland Electric Industries opens Garland Square on the outskirts of London. On 16 October 2000,[1] it is taken over by the U.R.D.A., a terrorist group led by Derrick Lynch. Since the terrorists held no hostages and made no demands for their reason for occupying the complex, the Scotland Yard orders a covert international counterterrorism squad, the Special Tactical Force (S.T.F. for short), to liberate Garland Square. The S.T.F., in turn, assigns Squad 1, led by Claude McGarren (spelled as Croad MacGalain in the Arcade version due to transliteration), to spearhead the effort.

The moment the counterterrorism team arrives at Garland Square, heavy resistance by the U.R.D.A. is imminent. Squad 1 secures the complex (by neutralizing all terrorists and killing the special agents Tiger and Edge), but the S.T.F. starts to get puzzled as in spite of their hard work, there's no sign of Lynch. An Eyes Only Broadcast from S.T.F.'s intelligence officials reveals disturbing information about Lynch's goal of "over-working" an experimental atomic reactor 5 km (3 miles) below the complex. McGarren and Squad 1 engage in a tense time-sensitive conflict to nullify Lynch and to prevent the reactor from becoming unstable, ultimately saving London from a nuclear meltdown.

Six months after the Garland Square incident, new U.R.D.A. mastermind Jared Hunter gathers the remnants and occupies Grassmarket District and Belforte Hotel. Once again, McGarren and Squad 1 are sent to annihilate the U.R.D.A. remnants and rescue the hostages. They fight their way through Grassmarket Street, defeating an experimental stealth defense droid called the Meta Morphic A-0940 in the process. They then storm the Belforte Hotel, where Melissa is held on the rooftop swimming pool. There, they are confronted by Hunter and his airborne attack squad. Declaring his intent for revenge, Hunter engages and loses to Squad 1. He then attempts escape in an armed cruiser, but is killed when the cruiser is destroyed by McGarren's chopper. McGarren and his men then take Melissa to safety, having ended the U.R.D.A.'s terror once and for all.
