It’s been over a decade since Grand Theft Auto V hit our screens, and the gaming world has been eagerly awaiting the next installment in the series. With rumors swirling about potential delays pushing GTA VI’s release to 2026 for the console version. PC gamers may well have to wait even longer. This has left many gamers wondering—what’s next for the crime-action genre?

OMERTA, an upcoming Web3 crime-action RPG aims to fill this void. Inspired by fan-favorites like Grand Theft Auto, Mafia, and Saints Row, OMERTA merges classic action-adventure gameplay with unique underworld empire-building antics to breathe a new life into open-world mafia games. The game also draws heavily from real-world crime syndicates like the Italian mafia and Mexican cartels, delivering a fresh and immersive take on organized crime.

So, what sets OMERTA apart from other open-world crime games like GTA or Saints Row? The answer lies in its unique gameplay mechanics and rich narrative. Once the game is released, Players will begin their journey in the fictional metropolis of Brookton, a city ruled by five powerful and dangerous cartels: OMERTA, Full Metal, Menagerie, Coven, and Silk Route.

In the single-player mode, you’ll start as a lowly henchman and work your way up the criminal ladder. Along the way, you’ll engage in dynamic missions that involve everything from gunfights to heists, and business takeovers. Each cartel has its own specialties, ranging from drug trafficking to arcane rituals, providing depth and variety to your rise to power.

The sprawling city of Brookton is your playground, with a range of activities and missions to complete. You’ll earn rewards like weapons, drugs, and rare arcane artifacts as you establish your dominance. OR if you’re a bit tactical, you will be able to build your own unique weapons. These rewards carry over into the online mode, where the real action begins.

While OMERTA‘s single-player campaign will offer hours of immersive content, OMERTA Online will
