Cruelty Squad is a 2021 tactical first-person shooter developed and published by Finnish[1] indie studio Consumer Softproducts, managed by artist Ville Kallio, through the Steam distribution platform.

In the game, the player takes on the role of a biologically-augmented assassin employed by the titular wetwork security company, tasked with performing black operations for its host conglomerate.

[4] Cruelty Squad is described by the developer as "an immersive power fantasy simulator with tactical stealth elements",[5] and is often compared to late 1990s and early 2000s shooters such as Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six, Deus Ex, Perfect Dark, and Hitman: Codename 47.

The player chooses their weaponry and equipment before starting each of the 19 missions present in the game, and then must traverse open, sandbox-style levels to locate and neutralize targets.

Corporate contract killings are handled in part by Cruelty Squad, a wetwork security company working under the umbrella of a large conglomerate.

He is tasked to kill a number of people who have drawn the ire of conglomerate "higher-ups"; these include anti-corporate politicians, cultists, rogue police officers, delinquent employees, and rival CEOs.
