Crime Boss: Rockay City is celebrating its two-year anniversary on Steam in style. Developer INGAME Studios and publisher 505 Games have released Update 21, the game’s biggest free update yet, bringing what they’re calling version 2.0 of the cooperative FPS title Heist. The update arrives alongside the announcement that the game has now surpassed one million units sold, a milestone that seems to have given the team reason to celebrate and plenty of motivation to continue.
The headline addition of Update 21 is an all-new Story Mode, which features a fully structured single-player campaign following criminal mastermind Travis Baker and his rise to power. Unlike the original campaign, this mode removes the roguelite elements, meaning no randomization or permadeath. Players can move through the narrative at their own pace, enjoying both returning cinematic cutscenes and newly created scenes. Notably, Story Mode also incorporates storylines from the Gold Cup and Cagnali’s Order DLCs, bringing them together for the first time into a single cohesive experience.
Two new missions have also been added to the game. “Hell’s Kitchen” is described as a high-stakes heist, while “Close Encounter” takes things in quite a different direction with an alien theme set in the Rockay Rumble type mission. These additions are aimed at both returning players looking for new content and newcomers discovering Rockay City for the first time.
However, perhaps the most important long-term addition is full modding support for PC gamers. The full modding toolkit is now available, allowing the community to create custom characters, new weapons, original missions, and entirely new game modes. INGAME Studios has announced plans to regularly feature community-created content on its YouTube channel and is exploring ways to bring the best mods to console players through curated DLC releases. It’s a move that suggests the studio sees the modding community as a real part of the future of gaming.
Crime Boss: Rockay City is now available on PC via Steam and Epic Games Store, as well as PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S. Update 21 is free on all platforms. For the latest news and updates, the game can be followed on X, Instagram, TikTok and YouTube.
