Ways to earn money
Tips
New Yolk has several income sources, and the best one depends on the role you are playing.
- Robbing banks is the biggest earner for gangsters.
- Racing supercars is another way to bring in cash.
- Owning a mega-mansion can provide ongoing income after you buy one.
- Civilians have their own earning paths that do not involve crime.
Combat and weapons
Check
Street Code's weapons are not your standard arsenal. The Guitar Blaster and Kawaii Wing Shooter look wild but hit hard. Gadgets are also part of the toolkit, especially when you are trying to outmaneuver cops.
- Guitar Blaster a distinctive-looking weapon with strong attack power.
- Kawaii Wing Shooter a cute-designed weapon that is genuinely effective in combat.
- Gadgets use these to outsmart cops.
Switching roles and roleplay variety
Tips

- Gangster — rob banks and cause chaos, but stay ahead of the cops.
- Police officer — switch to this when you want to be the one pursuing criminals.
- Civilian — quieter lifestyle, different earning methods.
- Mom / Baby / Delivery person — unusual roles built for creative roleplay scenarios.
- You can switch roles at any time.

Common questions
FAQShould I start as a gangster or a civilian?
Start with whichever one sounds more interesting to you. Since you can switch roles at any time, there is no pressure to get it right the first time — just try one and change it if you want something different.
Can I play with friends?
Yes, Street Code is multiplayer and you share the open world with other players. You can invite friends and play together online.
Are the unusual roles like mom or baby actually useful?
Those roles are designed for creative roleplay rather than grinding money or fighting. They give you a completely different kind of session and are worth trying if you want a break from the crime-and-cops loop.
