Developer CookieDev and publisher Ultimate Software S.A. announced last week that their upcoming criminal action game (with co-op!) ‘Crime Simulator’ will hit PCs first in 2024/25 followed by Xbox consoles in a tentative 2025 scheduling. A prologue is available as a free download on Steam. PlayStation and Nintendo Switch ports are planned for the future.
Crime Simulator is a unique simulator of criminal underworld activities with a first-person perspective (FPS) view. The game offers single-player and online co-op modes for up to 4 people at a time. The gameplay broadly depicts criminal life, also relying on elements known from other game genres.
A criminal career includes in Crime Simulator not only carrying out bandit jobs (such as theft and debt recovery) and fighting but also, among other things, collecting raw materials, developing characters, upgrading equipment or gaining the right reputation among the factions present in the game.
As of May 10, a free demo of the game is now available on Steam. In Crime Simulator: Prologue, players will find one smaller settlement with a construction zone and an abandoned farm that serves as a hideout for gangsters. The full version of the game will feature three larger settlements, desert areas on the outskirts of Mexico, national park areas in Canada and several additional locations, among others. The CookieDev team is also working on a whole lot of additional content.
In Crime Simulator, many tools await players to use in criminal actions. The developers offer, among others, baseball bats, crowbars, rods, wrenches, knuckles, knives, telescopic batons, pistols and various types of bombs and grenades. Specialized traps and turrets will also be available for use.
