CRIME BOSS: ROCKAY CITY IS COMING TO STEAM

505 Games and InGame Studios are thrilled to announce that our first-person action heisting game, Crime Boss: Rockay City, will be releasing on Steam, June 18th 2024. Get ready to manage a crew of heisters to take the town by storm in the single player rogue-lite campaign or join up with a group of friends to pull of large and daring heists in various online multiplayer game modes. We’ve been on an incredible journey so far and we can’t wait to welcome more Heisters on board next month.

Cagnali’s Order

Along with the Steam release comes Update 9 and an all-new major DLC pack, Cagnali’s Order.

A new player has arrived in Rockay. Cagnali Industries has one goal in mind: control. Will you be able to rise against impossible odds, face the monolith and resist order? Discover the conspiracy that stands to shift the fabric of Rockay in this all-new plotline, either solo or with friends.

Cagnali’s Order features four dystopian missions where the RCPD have been joined by an evil mega-corporation’s robotic police squad. Bursting with new enemies, a new boss, playable characters (plus obligatory laser gun!), Cagnali’s Order forms the backbone of the expansion package (which already includes a re-worked gaming system, levels, weapons packs, heists and so much more.)

Steam Special Offer

For this momentous occasion in our game’s history, we wanted to give new players and longtime fans the Crime Boss: Rockay City experience in its entirety. When you purchase the game on Steam, you will not only receive the base game, but for a limited time, Cagnali’s Order and all previous DLC for FREE!

This includes:

  • Dragon’s Gold Cup
  • Heavy Hitters Weapon Pack
  • Tactical Weapon pack

So bosses, what can you expect to see in the brand new Dragon’s Gold Cup?
