Gangstar Mirage City is officially preparing for its regional launch on August 20, 2026, and Filipino players are getting VIP treatment ahead of release. Level Infinite and Gameloft have unveiled a series of community events, faction battles, and registration campaigns that reward players for representing the Manila Brigade while building anticipation for the upcoming multiplayer open-world action title.
Originally soft-launched in the Philippines earlier this year, Gangstar Mirage City will soon expand across Southeast Asia, South Asia, Eastern Europe, the Middle East and North Africa (MENA), and Latin America (LATAM), introducing new content alongside a broader player base.
Filipino Players Take Center Stage with the Manila Brigade
One of the biggest highlights leading up to launch is the introduction of the Manila Brigade, the Philippines’ official faction competing against regional crews from neighboring countries.
Players who register as members of the Manila Brigade through the game’s official website will receive an exclusive in-game avatar, allowing them to proudly represent the Philippines inside Rooklyn City.
The competition doesn’t stop there. Each regional faction will be ranked based on community participation, with the Manila Brigade going head-to-head against:
- Indonesia’s War Kanda
- Malaysia’s Taiko Tedung
- Thailand’s SIAM APEX
Should the Manila Brigade finish ahead of its rivals, every participating member will receive 300 Diamonds, delivered directly through the in-game mail system after launch.
HolyFather and Galawang Bata Osas Lead the Charge
Adding even more local flavor to the campaign, popular Filipino content creators HolyFather and Galawang Bata Osas have been named captains of the Manila Brigade.
The two creators will spearhead community activities, encourage faction participation, and host events across their official social media channels leading up to launch. Fans can also expect opportunities to interact with fellow players while helping the Philippine faction climb the regional rankings.
This localized approach reinforces Gangstar Mirage City’s commitment to engaging Filipino gamers, especially with the game’s built-in Tagalog text localization, making the experience even more accessible for local players.
Expanded Features Await at Full Launch
The regional release isn’t simply opening access to more countries—it also introduces a significantly expanded version of the game compared to the earlier soft launch.
At launch, players can explore a larger version of Rooklyn City, featuring:
- Up to four-player cooperative heists
- High-speed vehicle combat and customization
- A brand-new PvP Arena mode
- Expanded empire-building mechanics
- More ways to customize weapons and equipment
- New progression systems for managing criminal businesses
The game blends multiplayer action with open-world exploration, allowing players to build their criminal empire while competing and cooperating with friends.
Register Early to Unlock Global Vault Heist Rewards
Beyond the Manila Brigade campaign, players worldwide can participate in the Global Vault Heist, a community registration event that unlocks rewards based on the total number of registered players.
As registration milestones increase, everyone benefits:
| Registration Milestone | Reward |
|---|---|
| 5 Million Players | 100 Diamonds |
| 10 Million Players | 200 Diamonds |
| 20 Million Players | 5 Vehicle Upgrade Vouchers |
| 30 Million Players | Full Tilt Vehicle Pack |
Players who joined during the Philippine soft launch are also eligible to participate. All earned rewards will be distributed through the in-game mail system once the game officially launches on August 20.
Philippine Community Can Win a Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra
Level Infinite is also rewarding community engagement outside the game.
Supporting the official Gangstar Mirage City Philippines social media pages contributes toward community milestone goals. As these milestones are reached, players will unlock additional rewards, including a chance to win the campaign’s grand prize—a Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra.
The initiative encourages players to grow the local community while building excitement before launch.
Tagalog Localization Makes the Experience More Filipino
Localization has become an increasingly important feature for mobile games, and Gangstar Mirage City embraces the Philippine audience by including Tagalog text support alongside multiple regional languages.
Available languages include:
- English
- Tagalog
- Indonesian
- Thai

- Turkish

- Latin American Spanish
English voice acting will accompany all versions of the game.
