Make it Count is the 1st expansion for Empire of Sin. It was announced on 2021-05-21 and is planned to be released on 2021-11-18 alongside the free 1.06 Precinct update.

Expansion features

Make It Count will introduce boss Maxim Zelnick and his gangsters, the ‘Fixers’:

• Maxim Zelnick - Play as the ‘Mob's Accountant,’ a boss that excels at economics and creates synergy in combat. He uses his smooth-talking to "make peace" with money and connections.
• ‘The Fixers’ - Five gangsters are up for hire, bringing their loan sharking Racket and combat abilities. This Racket unlocks Blackmail over other characters and factions.
• A string of missions that tell the story of Zelnick and the Fixers, unlocking game features like Loan Sharking, and more.
• New rackets, new abilities, new gangsters and new missions- more details to come!

Free features

The free major Precinct update includes:

• Precincts - Each neighborhood will be split into smaller precincts that are controlled by you and other major factions.
• Depot - This is the precinct control building: own the depot, own the precinct.
• Supply lines - Set you supply lines with adjoining precincts, which if not managed strategically, can have adverse effects that ripple throughout your empire.
• Precinct screen - Somewhere to get acquainted with your new precinct layout and ways to improve them.
• Police - Many factors will influence how active the police are in a certain precinct.
• Modding - Starting from "The Precinct", modding support will be gradually rolling out into the game. Starting with phase 1, the modders among you can work on text-based assets like Lua gameplay scripts, with more modding capabilities planned for the future.
