I hadn’t heard of Drug Dealer Simulator before, but the original game came out on PC back in 2020 so I’m not sure why its taken 5 years for it to hit consoles. Let’s take a look and see if this game is addictive or not…

The game has you decide what type of dealer you are. The achievements/trophies make you take different paths including getting several customers to overdose or hit milestones with money you earn and so on. It does look quite dated even for a game that launched 5 years ago but looks aren’t everything. How does it handle?

The controls are decent and you can even get boosts by getting high on your own supply, but the gameplay mechanics can become repetitive quickly and there are a few bugs here and there that hold back the experience. The city you explore feels a bit empty and lifeless, while the game lacks the charm of games like GTA or Saints Row. The PS5 and Xbox versions are identical.

The Verdict

Drug Dealer Simulator looks dated and can get repetitive quickly. I don’t know why its taken 5 years to get a console port, but it still lacks polish.

Score: 6.0
