This new crime sim game looks sick! It might even be able to take GTA’s place as the best game in the genre.
It looks like the newly announced Crime Boss: Rockay City could give Grand Theft Auto 6 a run for its money. With an impressive teaser and an earlier release date, Crime Boss: Rockay City could definitely outshine GTA 6. Thanks for the heads up, Rockstar!
After the recent Project America leaks, everyone knows that GTA 6 is going to be set in Vice City. However, not many people know about Crime Boss: Rockay City. Both games are set in Florida, share a genre, and have a similar audience. However, Crime Boss: Rockay City has the potential to set itself apart from GTA in several ways.
For one, Crime Boss: Rockay City is being developed by a small independent studio, meaning that it doesn’t have the same kind of budget that GTA has. This could allow Crime Boss: Rockay City to be more experimental with its gameplay and storytelling. Additionally, the game is set in the present day, which could make it feel more relevant and timely than
Rockay City Will Be More Strategic Than GTA 6, According to Crime Boss
Previously, the Grand Theft Auto series has been focused on action and fast-paced missions. However, it looks as though the upcoming game, Crime Boss: Rockay City, is headed in a more strategy-based direction. Ingame Studio’s Head Of Development Jarek Kolá was interviewed by Pavel Dobrovsk, who tweeted that the game “combines the strategic management of a mafia empire with fast-paced missions.” Although the specifics of how this will appear in-game are still unknown, there are countless potential outcomes. Gameplay may feel more cerebral and gratifying by fusing the often action-packed genre with strategic components from, say, the Sid Meier’s Civilization series of games.
GTA games always have had some strategic elements to them. However, with GTA 6, those elements might not be as pronounced as they are in other games such as Crime Boss: Rockay City. This is because GTA 6 will most likely stick to its tried-and-true design, which has proven to be successful and influential. Nevertheless, after nine years of GTA 5, some players might be ready for a change and therefore Crime Boss: Rockay City could fill that void.
One Person Could Start a Crime Rockay City Is Different From GTA 6
GTA games might have some strategic elements, but GTA 6 won’t be as strategic as Crime Boss: Rockay City. GTA 6 will probably stick to its tried-and-true design – which makes sense, since it’s been so successful and influential. But after nine years of GTA 5, some players might be bored with the gameplay and looking for something new – which is where Crime Boss: Rockay City could come in.
Crime Boss: Rockay City is a new game that promises to be much more strategic than GTA. In the game, you play as a crime boss in a fictional city, and you have to juggle different gangs, businesses, and rivals to stay on top. It sounds like a perfect game
The downside of first-person perspective is that it can make character customization feel less important. Since the player won’t see their character very often (apart from cutscenes), there’s not much incentive to seek out clothes, accessories, and other appearance-related items in the game. We don’t know how extensive character customization will be in Crime Boss: Rockay City, but this is where GTA 6 could potentially do better.
Rockay City’s Cast Already Competes with GTA 6 | Crime Boss
Crime Boss: Rockay City has an impressive roster of famous actors, including some 90s movie stars and other famous figures. Chuck Norris, Danny Glover, Vanilla Ice, and others were all cast perfectly for their roles. This is sure to attract the attention of many potential players – especially those who are familiar with the actors and greatly appreciate the game’s setting.
The GTA franchise is no stranger to featuring celebrities, but with Crime Boss: Rockay City already swiping one of its most cherished actors, it doesn’t look too good for Rockstar Games. Danny Trejo, who will play The Dragon in Rockay City, also played the well-liked Umberto from GTA: Vice City. The return to Vice City in GTA 6 could have seen another cameo from Umberto, but this doesn’t seem likely, as the actor has evidently moved to the opposing crime simulator. While there are plenty of famous actors who could return in GTA 6, this event begs the question of how many actually will.
The Open World of GTA 6 Will Be Different From Crime Boss: Rockay City
Although it’s still too early to say for sure, it doesn’t appear like Crime Boss: Rockay City will have as much open-world exploration as GTA 6. Although it might seem like a terrible thing, this might actually be to its advantage. To the dismay of some GTA fans, no open-world map appears to have been mentioned in any promotional materials for the Ingame Studios game. If accurate, though, this demonstrates that Crime Boss: Rockay City’s intention is to be a wholly original game that stands out, rather than a GTA clone.
It seems like the game is focused more on its story than anything else, and a smaller map could work well for that. Open-world sandbox games can be great, but sometimes they can feel too big or overwhelming for players. A linear map might make the experience feel more streamlined and thought-out. GTA 6’s map probably won’t be a problem, but Crime Boss: Rockay City’s will be different, which could work in its favor.
Crime Boss: Rockay City might pose some competition for GTA 6, as the game is set to launch in March 2023. However, there are several ways that GTA 6 will be able to stand out from its competition. For one, GTA 6 is developed by the well-known and reputable Rockstar Games, while Crime Boss: Rockay City is being developed by a relatively unknown studio. Additionally, GTA 6 is expected to have a much larger budget and scope than Crime Boss: Rockay City, meaning that it will likely offer a more polished and comprehensive experience. Finally, the GTA franchise has a far larger and more dedicated fan base than Crime Boss: Rockay City, so even if the latter game is good, it will.
