Hello! Our monthly Boss Build for Crime Boss: Rockay City is here!
In our previous post, we focused on health and taking the bullets on behalf of your crew. This included heavy weapons, equipment to defend your position, and perks designed to keep you in the fight as long as possible. You can check out “The Tank” and our other previous builds here:
This build will set you up to effectively bus bags from the mission area to the escape location on behalf of your team. Be sure to remember to keep your crew members close as carrying multiple bags will force you to use your sidearm and leave you vulnerable to enemy fire.
As noted in the posts above, these builds apply to your multiplayer boss and not necessarily for single-player heisters, though they can be used for inspiration. Let’s get into it!
Weapons
Primary:
The SMG 9mm ESOG is the perfect weapon to have when you want to get in quiet and if things get loud on your way out. A decent mag size and exceptional accuracy make this weapon great when you’re under pressure and need to drop a bag to pick off the opposition before continueing on to the drop off point.
Secondary:
High damage, deadly accurate and semi-automatic. Aim for the head and keep it moving; this is just the sidearm you need when your hauling the loot out of the job.
Equipment
Carry a third bag and potentially save you and your crew a trip. Best for long missions that require you to move over a sizeable distance to the exfil.
While the Mule Booster is the obvious pick for the “Bag Mule” build, the silenced stun grenade is also a great option.
On jobs like the Jewelry Store heist or Branch Bank, where the escape vehicle is nearby, the stun grenade can incapacitate enemies long enough to drop off your loot and return to the task.
Perks
If you do end up being the designated bag carrier, odds are you’ll go down. You might get swamped by the opposition and are unable to switch to your prim
ary in time. Make sure your crew can get you back on your feet and that they have the time to do it.
With your hands full you’ll be left vulnerable to other attacks. Resistance will do exactly as the name says and keep you on the move.
With all that money on your back you can be sure that cops and gangs alike will be gunning for you.
Best applied when you have Mule Booster equipped. Move fast and reload on the fly.
Great with the Mule Booster or the Silenced Stun Grenade. Carry three bags more often or cause long lasting damage to your enemies senses.
And that’s it! Thank’s for reading.

For this build, we’ll be focusing on health and damage threshold, giving your Boss the greatest survivability among your crew members. With this setup, you’ll be leading the charge, drawing more gunfire, and giving your teammates a chance to thin out the enemy numbers or get away with the loot.
As always, these builds apply to your multiplayer boss and not necessarily for single-player heisters, though they can be used for inspiration. Let’s get into it!

After much buildup and anticipation, InGame Studios and 505Games are excited to announce that Crime Boss: Rockay City’s 11th major update is now available for players to enjoy.
This update brings new and fun content to experience, but most importantly, it delivers numerous fixes and adjustments that players have requested and patiently awaited.
Working on Update 11 has been primarily an effort to improve the game’s quality of life and iron out any lingering issues. While we’ve included some fresh new content for you to explore and experiment with, the main focus of this update is on ensuring that Crime Boss plays as smoothly and as fun as possible.
The content of this update is too long to list here but we will cover some of the essentials.

Fixes:
Modding:
• Implementing a UGC plugin for loading mods (Unreal Engine plugins), giving you the ability to Blueprint mod the game.
• Creating composite tables for the most-used DatabaseTables with BP functions to append new (or existing) tables into the composite tables, which is great for replacing or adding new weapons, for example.
• Adding the ability to add gameplay tags with the UGC Mod.
• When a campaign mode defines no map layout presets, gang starting positions will fallback to random, valid turfs (which allows for completely randomized starting positions).

Hello! We’re back again with another Boss character build for Crime Boss: Rockay City!
In our previous post, we focused on stealth and infiltration. This included silenced weapons, equipment to help case the job, and perks designed to keep you out of sight while simultaneously ensuring no one escapes yours. You can check out the “Going Silent” build here:
505 Games » “Going silent” – Stealth Boss Build in Crime Boss: Rockay City
However, being a clandestine robber can sometimes be too slow, unnecessary, or straight-up impossible. For these missions and situations, professionalism must be thrown out the window in favor of a more “shock and awe” approach. Time to deal some damage!
As noted in the post above, these builds apply to your multiplayer boss and not necessarily for single-player heisters, though they can be used for inspiration. Let’s get into it!
Bottom of the barrel in terms of accuracy, ammo capacity, and reload time, but wait! Don’t brush it off yet because this drum-fed semi-auto shotgun packs a serious punch. Keep it loaded because, though this may sound counterintuitive, this will be acting as your secondary. When things get hot and the pressure is on, pull out the Striker and feel your worries wash away as you quickly dispatch large groups of opposing forces at once or deal massive damage to unique enemies like heavies and shields. If used effectively and accurately, it’s an extremely deadly weapon, especially in tight spaces.
The Glizzy R+ is a heavily modified version of its base counterpart. Sporting a red dot sight, compensator, and extended magazine, it can let off shots in rapid succession while maintaining relatively high accuracy. The damage output is low, but with the short reload time, enemies won’t have long before they’re back in your sights. This is a perfect sidearm when hauling loot—a full team with this weapon equipped might not even have to worry about dropping bags to switch to their primaries.
Exactly what it sounds like—a handheld cluster bomb! Throw it down a full corridor and see just how quickly it clears out, or put some arch in it and create a rudimentary air burst. Be careful though, these things can be unpredictable and potentially cause a lot of collateral damage—blowing up civilians, cars, or even you and your team.
The Gun Nut perk increases your overall weapon handling. Faster reloads, decreased weapon sway, the ability to reload while sprinting, and a slight damage buff will ensure that no matter how outmanned you are, the enemy will always be outgunned.
The Marksman perk gives your boss a further increase in firearm damage. It may not offer much, but what it does offer is substantial. With the combination of Marksman, Gun Nut, and the Urban Striker, you can expect most cops, gangsters, and guards to go down with little to no fight.
As the primary damage dealer of your crew with this loadout, it’s important that you stay in the fight for as long as possible. The Comeback perk ensures you do, granting you an extra revive. Just make sure you bring someone reliable along to pick you up.
