![]() Some of the remaining heists, together with the Safe House-feature, unfortunately have too high requirements in terms of optimization to be viable to port at this time. We will release Console update 1.5 – for free – which will soon be hitting a console near you and will bring the console version of the game slightly closer to the current Legacy collection on PC. We’ve previously mentioned that we would like to attempt to achieve parity for PC and Consoles, at this time however, it will not be possible. To be clear as can be, we will out of necessity, at this time, have to accept disparity between the PC and Consoles versions for PAYDAY 2 going forward. We see this as an opportunity to, at least, be as forthcoming as we can be regarding the road map ahead. ![]() We simply have too many constraints in available manpower to be able to fix the situation in the short term. We’ve had to look at the future console updates from our situation as it looks today, with the limitations that we have, rather than looking back at what has been said and done before and make choices accordingly, even though they might not be what we wish them to. As of April 2019, the PAYDAY 2: Crime Wave Edition with its DLC’s is almost caught up to PC, but not quite. We are however making the changes needed, so we can do it right for the next one from the get go.Ĭonsoles has always been something of an Achilles heel in our production pipeline and while we’ve made several efforts through the years to strengthen the team and effectivising the PC production to better align to consoles, it hasn’t been enough. I want to change that for the future, but in all honesty, we won’t be able to do that for PAYDAY 2. Where we are right now, I know that we still can’t. I know that we have not delivered on the Consoles as we should have, or even promised at one point. Should we find the opportunity to revisit and solve the disparity in the future, we will do so. We would like to set the proper expectations at this time.PC and consoles will unfortunately have disparity going forward.Update 1.5 for XboxOne and PlayStation 4 is live NOW-ish (we’re waiting for the update to appear across both platforms) and is available as a free update. ![]() Many of our console players have been asking for updates, we’ve asked you to have patience with us and here’s finally an update for you: TL DR We’d like to reiterate that the changes we’ve made were not an easy decision, but we hope that we can continue delivering exciting and fun experiences for you, that feels like time well spent in PAYDAY 2. We feel overwhelmed by your understanding, and at the same time accept and acknowledge some of the hesitation you’ve expressed. Since we posted the first “Winds of Change” update we’ve been closely monitoring, listening to and discussing your feedback. Joseph Knoop is a writer/producer/getaway driver for IGN.I’m back for another update, but first of all I’d like to kick off by saying a big and heartfelt thank you on behalf of the crew and myself. The story has been updated to reflect this. Starbreeze Studios stated in March 2021 that Payday 3's release window was now 2023. Update: A previous version of this story incorrectly stated that Payday 3 had a release window of 2022 - 2023. Payday 3 is currently scheduled to release simultaneously on PC and consoles in 2023, "with additional content and functionalities planned for long beyond the original release date," Starbreeze said in March this year. Wonnevi emphasized that the new engine will allow players to step into the "living, breathing" fantasy of New York and see it "flip" into chaos and react accordingly to your decisions as a heist crew. Starbreeze didn't show any actual gameplay or cinematics from Payday 3 during its event, but what we do know is that the game is being developed in Unreal Engine, as opposed to the previous games' Grin engine. A second image shows the climax of the group's heist, as armored SWAT swarms the bank's front steps and the gang fires from the top of the steps. Payday 3's characters can be seen casing the building with their masks on, as a few police officers patrol in the distance. Software giants, cryptocurrency, mass surveillance, and even the dark web will all play some sort of role for the gang, such as updated gadgetry.Ĭoncept art revealed during the presentation also shows a fictional New York bank named "Gold & Sharke Incorporated" that may serve as a mission location. Technology has come a long way since Payday 2 released in 2013, and Starbreeze looks to be capitalizing on that fact for gameplay purposes. Payday 3 will also take place several years after the events of Payday 2, bringing back characters like Dallas, Hoxton, Chains, and Wolf as they leave retirement and return to their criminal ways.
