Crime Boss: Rockay City Is Just $2 on Steam – And It’s Better Than Ever
Crime Boss: Rockay City Is Just $2 on Steam until April 25. The once-troubled Payday rival has been revamped, with major updates and fresh 2025 content on the way.
Crime Boss: Rockay City had a rough start, but it’s making one heck of a comeback—and right now, you can grab it for just $2 on Steam. That’s 90% off until Friday, April 25, and if you’ve been curious about this co-op heist shooter, now’s a great time to jump in.
Going toe-to-toe with the Payday franchise was always going to be a challenge, especially since even Payday 3 struggled to match the staying power of Payday 2. Crime Boss launched back in 2023 and had a bumpy road, with bugs, balance issues, and not enough content to keep players hooked. But fast forward to now, and it’s in a much better place—earning some well-deserved positive attention after its Steam release.

When it finally hit Steam in 2024, we chatted with head of development Jarek Kolář about the game’s wild journey. Inspired by Payday but mixing in a healthy dose of cheesy ’80s action and a roguelike twist, Crime Boss has been steadily reshaping itself since that rocky launch.
Player reception has improved a ton, and the devs at Ingame Studios clearly aren’t done yet. The 2025 roadmap is packed with new heists, missions, characters, weapons, and perks. One of the biggest things on the horizon? A massive heist expansion coming this December, bringing a fresh batch of content to sink your teeth into.
Sure, Crime Boss: Rockay City might not be on Payday 2‘s level in terms of popularity, but it’s carved out its own spot as an underdog worth rooting for. If you’re hunting for a fun, affordable game to play with friends—and one that actually has plans to keep growing—this might just be the hidden gem you’re after.
Don’t sleep on the deal: it’s $1.99 / £1.59 until April 25.
