What is American Fugitive?

This single-player, top-down action game takes place in the open world of 1980s Redrock County, in the American South. As Will Riley, who escapes prison after being framed for his father's murder, you travel on foot and by car, take criminal jobs, rob houses, steal vehicles, and evade police while looking for the real killer.

For you if...

  • +you like classic top-down crime games
  • +you enjoy optional activities between story missions

Not for you if...

  • you need multiplayer rather than a single-player game
  • you prefer structured levels to open-world exploration

What players say
