Irene Rietveld

Irene Rietveld is part of the New Amsterdam Police. An operative sporting a jetpack, she frequently engages with the Bomb Rush Crew, at first viewing them as just vandals that she has to apprehend.
== Role in the Story ==
Rietveld is first encountered as the boss for the tutorial stage at the police bureau. She apprehends Faux and Tryce as they attempt to escape, but she backs down once Faux manages to defeat her.
Rietveld is fought a second time during the story, specifically after BRC manages to meet with the Flesh Prince at the basketball court. Red and the rest of BRC are in a side area connected to the court, having a short discussion among themselves. When they try to leave, Red is separated from the others by a police barrier. He then has to fight Rietveld by himself. Once she's defeated, she gives up on trying to arrest Red and flies off.
A bit later, just before BRC head to Millennium Square to try and confront Eclipse, Rietveld is seen again at the police bureau. Berlage is going over the files for “Teun Vogelaar”, a.k.a. Faux. He asks her what her opinion is on using Faux as part of Project Algo. She advises against doing so, though she doesn’t give an exact reason why. Berlage does not bother questioning her further, just responding that her objection has been noted.
Right after the DOT EXE leader is killed, Rietveld is at the mall with other police officers. They are securing the scene of the crime and trying to make sure no potential suspects get out of the mall. She questions if “that guy”, likely referring to Faux, had something to do with this incident. She also thinks about how she knew he was bad news when she encountered him on the night of his escape.
Rietveld then has a flashback, seemingly just after her fight with Faux at the bureau. She orders other officers to make sure anyone who’s been hurt during the escape is taken care of, and asks for the status of the three suspects. An officer responds that DJ Cyber and one other detainee (referring to Tryce) managed to escape. Meanwhile, they were at least able to recover Faux’s head, while Tryce of course got away with Faux’s body.
This leads into a conversation she had with Berlage, where he explains he wants to protect the city of New Amsterdam from lawlessness, especially from “gangs” like the writer crews. Rietveld still insists that it’s too risky, especially since they don’t know what else is on Faux’s mind. Despite her objections, Berlage is determined to continue forward with Project Algo, especially with incorporating Faux into the core of the project.
The next time we see Rietveld is after BRC have defeated both Devil Theory and DJ Cyber. She and several other officers manage to break into the Project Algo control room. There they find Berlage already dead. Rietveld goes up to the central interface of Project Algo, and asks Faux directly if he saw what happened to Berlage. Faux instead responds that he sees the end of all writers in New Amsterdam, such that he will be the only one left, and thus become All City King. He proceeds to take control of the other officers in the room, shown by their eyes all turning red. He has them pull out their guns and aim at Rietveld. The cutscene abruptly ends as she looks over at one of the officers.
Although we don’t see it onscreen, Rietveld does manage to escape somehow. The last time we see her during the story is in Mataan. After Faux has managed to rip off Red Felix’s head and kidnap Solace, Rietveld arrives with Felix’s original body, which was presumably in police custody this whole time.
She explains that Project Algo is out of control at this point, and Faux’s corruption of the project has spread to the rest of the police force. Essentially, she and BRC want the same thing at this point, which is to stop Faux, hence why she ends up helping them in this way. When Tryce demands that they get some sort of diplomatic immunity in exchange for stopping Faux, Rietveld promises that she’ll do her best to repay them somehow, even despite the corruption of the police.
==Boss Fight==
Rietveld is fought twice in the game, once during the prologue at the police bureau, and the other during chapter 1 in Versum Hill.
===Police Bureau Fight===
At the bureau, while Tryce is attempting to open a door so that he and Faux can escape from the roof, Rietveld appears to try and capture them. The player has to thus fight her off on their own.
Several police officers will also appear to help her, so the player will have to deal with them while Rietveld hovers around, trying to divebomb you. Once you hit Rietveld in the air enough times, she will go down. With the fight finished, she decides to retreat and flies off.
===Versum Hill Fight===
In Versum Hill, at one point Red is separated from the rest of BRC by police barriers. Rietveld then comes in flying a helicopter as she proceeds to fight him by himself.
For this boss fight, there are three stages to keep in mind. The first stage is simply Rietveld attacking from the helicopter, with several officers on the ground to further distract the player. Note that more officers will appear throughout the stages of this fight as other officers are defeated. Using the rails around the area is one of the easier options for reaching and hitting the helicopter.
Once it’s down, Rietveld comes out of the helicopter to fight you directly. This second stage is simply a repeat of her previous boss fight at the bureau. Again, using the rails makes it easier to reach and hit her.
When she’s brought down again, she goes back to the helicopter and manages to rip off its gun. For this third and final stage, she will use the gun to shoot chains at the player to try and capture you that way. Just keep moving to avoid the chain shots, and use the higher rails to reach her like before, to defeat her for good.
== How to Unlock == 
Rietveld can be unlocked in the postgame. Go to Versum Hill, and back to the arena where you fight her during the story, next to the basketball court. There, you will see Rietveld surrounded by the police, who have attacked her to the point of disabling her boostpack so she can't get away.
You have to fight them off to save her. There will be regular officers, but also snipers, a helicopter, and a walking tank. Once you've beaten them all and talk to Rietveld, she explains that she was heading an anti-corruption division in the police force, in order to fully rid the police of Project Algo's influence. However, after being attacked by her fellow police officers for her efforts, she decides to quit the force and join BRC instead.
