What Is Crime Simulator?
Crime Simulator puts you in the shoes of a rising criminal trying to build a name in the underground. You’ll plan stealth missions, infiltrate homes and businesses, steal valuables, sabotage targets, and build a shady empire—solo or in 4-player online co-op.
Think you can survive the streets? Or will you get caught red-handed?
Forget casual thievery—this is a deep, skill-based system where stealth, timing, and the right gear make or break your mission. 
Gameplay Features
- Solo or Online Co-op: Team up with up to 3 friends or sneak alone in tense single-player missions.
- Stealth-Driven Action: Avoid guards, bypass security systems, and disappear before the cops arrive.
- Build Your Reputation: Upgrade your gear, enhance your skills, and grow your hideout into a full-blown criminal base.
- Multiple Heist Tools: Use lockpicks, crowbars, silenced weapons, scanners, and even drones.
- Diverse Locations: Rob houses, break into stores, and hit the H1 – Texas Train Station in a massive planned robbery.
- Dynamic Difficulty: From chill mode to master-thief mode—choose how hard you hustle.
With over 30 hours of main story content and more coming post-launch, Crime Simulator is shaping up to be a standout title for stealth-action fans.
