You may have spotted the new CrimeCraft: Kingpin forums today and in case you were wondering what that’s all about, Kingpin is the new free-to-play socially networked game coming in December for the iPhone and Facebook. CrimeCraft: Kingpin was developed in conjunction with Big Boat Interactive.

Just like in the original CrimeCraft, Kingpin is all about building a gang, earning a reputation and killing the competition. To expand their empire, players fight their way across Sunrise City, recruiting new gang members, taking over territory and targeting rivals through grudge matches. By completing missions and taking out threats, players gain experience and rep on their way to becoming the ‘Kingpin’ of Sunrise City.

Here’s a list of features you will see in CrimeCraft: Kingpin:

• Free-to-play, socially-networked game for Facebook and iPhone/iTouch, based on the CrimeCraft universe.
• Start a gang then perform missions and contracts to earn in-game cash. Recruit your friends to build your reputation. Ultimately fight your way to the top to become Kingpin.
• Simple but deep combat system gives players control over skills, weapons and armor load-outs to take advantage of varied tactical situations and terrain.
• Achievements in CrimeCraft: Kingpin will unlock special items in CrimeCraft (for the PC) and vice versa.
• In-game messaging system allows players to coordinate attacks against a common foe, and taunt enemies across both the Facebook and iPhone/iTouch platforms.
• Gives players a deeper look into the crime-blasted, post-apocalyptic universe of CrimeCraft.
