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. Player character exploring an indoor grow operation with hydroponic plants and UV lighting in Crime Simulator, highlighting stealth and crime scene environments.

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.
