505 Games’ Crime Boss: Rockay City is out this month and offers a unique first-person shooting experience for fans of the 80s/90s-style crime films. It has a rogue-like campaign starring Michael Madsen becoming the city’s new crime boss, quick co-op missions with different characters, and extensive multiplayer scenarios with a diverse cast.
Of course, that’s not the end. Developer INGAME STUDIOS will continue supporting the game after launch, with development director Jarek Kolář telling GamesRadar, “The word ‘evolution’ is what’s on our roadmap. Rockay is a city that never sleeps, and neither will the game’s development. From day one, we’ll be iterating and improving upon the game.”
Post-launch, the team will introduce “new characters and scenarios, new heists, new jobs to undertake, and even new narrative beats that will take the story off in entirely new directions. And, of course, we’ll be tweaking and improving upon the game itself and asking the community for their feedback too.”
This is apparent in the dedicated feedback page and the team’s desire to listen to all feedback. Other stars may also enter the game, though Kolář didn’t mention specific names. “The late 80s and 90s were ripe with some of the most iconic stars in movies and TV. We would love to include as many as we can. We’ve even had a few names reach out to us, which is really flattering, so we’ll see how it goes.
“We have so much post-launch content planned, it would seem wrong not to include a few new stars, right? We have a lot of Hollywood history to play with here. I can’t say too much, I don’t want to give anything away!”
Crime Boss: Rockay City launches on March 28th for PC via the Epic Games Store. It’ll remain exclusive to the storefront until at least June 2024, but PS5 and Xbox Series X/S players can get their hands on it this June. Head here for more details on the game, and stay tuned for further updates.
