Description
About This Game
Welcome to New Queens…
…where fists fly, bullets rain and crime pays.
Taking place across the snow-covered Winter of 1990 and the sun-bleached streets of Summer ‘96, The Henchmen chronicles your career criminal’s rise through the ranks. Starting off as a low-level street thug and culminating in a clash of the crime lords, New Queens is yours to reign in blood - or leave in a body bag.
Combining 90’s nostalgia with modern design principles, The Henchmen shakes up the classic open world formula with combo-driven combat, arcade driving physics and full co-op support; delivering a pulse pounding, power-sliding, partner-ready take on the crime sandbox.
Whether you’re behind the barrel of your gun or the wheel of a hot new ride, you’re about to show this city what it takes to own the underworld.
