Romero Games started developing the project in Unity Pro in early 2017. Gangsters’ backstories and attributes can help or hinder players in their goals – in a battle against a rival gang, a trusted lieutenant might defect or refuse to target a secret lover from the other side, while a grizzled veteran could go above and beyond the call of duty for a beloved boss. Empire of Sin is populated by gangsters, each with their own personality traits and links to other figures – as allies, enemies or lovers – and these qualities evolve based on how the game is played. Players must manage their crew and key resources, moonshine and money. Gameplay includes exploration, real-time empire building, and boss-on-boss sit-downs as well as turn-based combat.
