With a cast featuring the likes of Kim Basinger, Chuck Norris, and Michael Madsen, we had hoped 90s-inspired organised crime outing Crime Boss: Rockay City would be some kind of story-driven GTA-esque adventure. Unfortunately, the reality is that it’s a Payday-esque co-op first-person shooter, although there will also be a single player campaign, according to the press release.
This first gameplay footage is clearly heavily co-op focused, though. It starts out with a stealth infiltration-style sequence, before you and your teammates raid a vault and work together to extract the loot. While it certainly doesn’t look bad, we feel like we’ve played this before: the waves of resistance get stronger as the mission nears its conclusion, and so too does the amount of armour they’re wearing.
