Boots (Stretch), is a henchman for a successful but shady businessman, and is locked into his life of crime. Newly released from prison he attempts to leave his troubled ways behind him – but to do this he must complete just one last assignment – to assassinate his own brother Christian, an MP hotly tipped to be the next Prime Minister. When Boots is given the opportunity to finally exact his revenge on the brother who testified against him and helped land him in jail in the first place – the temptation is too great to resist… As events take a downward spiral, Boots realises that he can’t take anything for granted, especially not when family is involved.

In the game you will play Boots; a freelance money collector whose task is to find, collect and deliver cash and goods whilst driving around the streets of London.  Boots is one of the best money collectors in town; his driving skills match his fists, fast and hard.

At the beginning you are only known by a few, but as the story unfolds you become known to street hustlers, petty criminals, drug dealers, racer boys and leading crime figures – all of whom pay for your skills.

 “The Heavy will offer fans a whole exciting storyline that is full of twists and surprises" said Frazer Nash, CEO Frazer Nash Communications.

The Heavy will offer an opened, fast-paced driving action-movie experience, featuring an unfolding storyline that will develop over the next few years to include double crossing and revenge.

Packing a punch, The Heavy doesn’t hold back and exposes a world where you can trust no one and loyalty is rare.
