Crime Simulator supports online co-op for up to 4 players. You can invite friends directly from your platform's friends list or share a lobby code. Missions scale based on crew size, so whether you're running solo or with three others, the difficulty adjusts accordingly. Voice and text chat are built directly into the game, so no third-party app is needed. Online co-op is entirely optional — the full game is available solo as well.
