About the Game

*“Racketeering activity is defined as specified criminal acts, including murder, arson, distribution of controlled substances, and intimidation and retaliation against witnesses.”*

- Federal Bureau of Investigation

Racketeering is an open-world criminal sandbox where you start with nothing and build an underground empire by hand, alone or with friends.

Grow weed, harvest crops, process raw materials, package product, and sell to an expanding network of buyers. Every part of your operation is physical. Carry supplies, place equipment, organize production rooms, load setups into vehicles, and relocate when the pressure gets too close.

As your money and reputation grow, invest in better equipment, vehicles, properties, and legitimate businesses. Expand beyond weed into party drugs, meth, and cocaine. Launder your profits, manage police attention, navigate rival gangs, and decide how far you are willing to go to protect everything you have built.


Control the entire operation from production to sale. Cultivate crops, process materials, manufacture increasingly valuable products, package your supply, and build a reliable network of buyers.


Your operation exists in the world, not just in menus. Carry equipment, position workstations, arrange production rooms, stock vehicles, and physically build every stage of your empire.



RUN THE OPERATION TOGETHER

Build alone or work alongside friends in online co-op. Divide responsibilities, combine resources, manage production, make deliveries, and expand your criminal empire together.

MASTER SIMULATED CROP GROWING

Create the right environment for every crop. Poor conditions can damage or destroy your harvest, while a carefully managed setup can produce valuable yields.

EXPLORE A LARGE OPEN WORLD

Travel through a large world. Secluded locations, establish hidden operations, purchase properties, make deliveries, and expand across long distances.

BUILD LEGITIMATE FRONTS

Purchase and operate legitimate businesses to launder money and divert police attention. Every business becomes part of your empire, but valuable properties can also attract the attention of rival gangs.

DRIVE, DELIVER, AND ESCAPE

Take control of more than 20 vehicles with physics-based handling. Transport supplies, move product, relocate equipment, and make a fast exit when a deal goes wrong.

A LIVING, SIMULATED WORLD

Custom large-scale traffic and NPC systems keep the world moving around you. Roads remain active, communities feel populated, and every journey presents new risks and opportunities.

TOP-DOWN COMBAT

Protect your operation when negotiation is no longer an option. Fight rival gangs, defend your properties, and survive the consequences of becoming known.
