It took us a moment to work out what Crime Boss: Rockay City actually is, but it's actually pretty simple. The game sounds a bit like the Payday series, only with famous people in it.
It's a first-person shooter that's all about pulling off big heists and working your way up the ladder of organised crime. It stars recognisable performers like Michael Madsen, Kim Basinger, Danny Glover, Vanilla Ice, and Danny Trejo. Madsen takes the role of Travis Baker, the player character, looking to become the titular crime boss.
There's no concrete release date for the PS5 version, with publisher 505 Games saying it's "coming soon" for now. What do you make of this unusual project? Tell us in the comments section below.

It was sad to see so many great actors pressed into service for so tired an idea. Chuck Norris was there too.
This piqued my interest when i saw madsen and chuck norris but then vanilla ice popped in and i just rolled my eyes..what is he actually famous for? The only things that spring to mind is killing an all time classic song,being dangled off a 5th story balcony by deathrow's suge knight by his ankles and appearing on big brother..yeah he really deserves to be amongst the iconic action heros depicted in this..lets get matt hancock in on it too..
90s and got a Vice City vibe and I'm all for it
You guys really going to ignore Chuck Norris? Have you not seen memes? He will somehow ignore you to death in retaliation
Seriously tho he is probably the main reason the game is now on my list XD
Kim basinger and Danny glover? I was in for that alone. But Chuck Norris in a video game? Can the ps5 handle this? I thought we were decades away from computing that could handle chuck Norris!
@NEStalgia @Danloaded this is true. Chuck norris once kicked a revolving door shut.
Looks like if Tarantino made a video game instead of a movie.
Payday 3 is still one of the games I'm most looking forward to. If this can rival it, then that's great. But I thought 505 games was under starbreeze which publishes Payday series....
oh that can be soooo cool
@NEStalgia @Danloaded @Ashina I was sold soon as I saw Danny Trejo, Danny Glover, and Chuck Norris were starring in the game.
Hopefully this game has been in development for awhile and is releasing next year.
So Payday, trying to be GTA Vice City, but they blew half their budget on big name has been actors?
Or am I missing something that makes this look interesting?
This cast and setting in a GTA style game and I'd be all over it but a Payday style gane just isn't very interesting to me sadly
This could be great fun if it's not just the tired old formula. I mean come on CHUCK NORRIS. I once heard that he got so mad with a guy that he beat him up using only his Chin. The man's a legend I tell you.
@Northern_munkey he was a pretty big deal back in the day. For a couple of years he was everywhere and never out of the tabloids due to his national service stint as Madonna's boyfriend. Thankfully that was phased out and we no longer have to worry about being called up.
Danny glover is in there is cool.haha.this game seems interesting.word up son
@Northern_munkey if kim Kardashian is a celebrity.than so is vanilla ice.her reputation is horrible.yo v.i.p. lets kick it.yo lets get out of here.word to your mother.haha😄.word up son
Look like what saints row should have been
Looks great but with a healthy dose of scepticism from me
Have a sense of humour people, this looks ace!!
This looks god awful.
Call of Vice City: Cyberpunk Redemption
@playstation1995 @Johnnycide but he aint exactly an action hero..kim bassinger i'm not too sure about either although she got plenty of "action" in 9 and a half weeks with mickey rourke..does that count?
@Northern_munkey yeah but vanilla ice bring the fun and comedy to this game. A lot of people know who vanilla ice is. The 1990s the ladt great legendary decades.word up son
@playstation1995 🤣👍
Looks fun and as a teenager in the early 90's this just plays into all of the memories from the films and media of that time..
Hopefully gameplay holds up, it will also be interesting to see how they market this, considering the age demographic it in theory is aiming for...
But anything with Chuck Norris and Danny Trejo will always have my attention from the start 😁
Chuck Norris invented giraffes by uppercutting a horse!!
I need to see Gameplay. I've seen too much hype over the years and a movie like trailer can be decieving.
I think I'll be buying that. If Rockstar can't be bothered to create new GTA titles, then it's great to see others having a crack.
