  • Heists

A four-player co-op heist shooter: you hit banks and other jobs, use drills and saws to complete objectives, take hostages to trade and hold off police waves that grow the longer you take, with random events thrown in.

Why play it now

When you have three friends online and fancy a tense heist where you have to work together to get out.

Who it's for

For groups who enjoy demanding co-op shooters and splitting up the tasks during a heist.

When not to pick it

If you're playing alone: the AI-controlled teammates can't complete objectives.
