It’s possible Payday 3’s release date will be confirmed over the coming weeks as part of Summer Game Fest, perhaps during its live kick-off show on Thursday.
Developed by Starbreeze Studios, Payday 3 will officially be published by Plaion’s Prime Matter label this year for PC, Xbox and PlayStation consoles.
Taking place in contemporary New York, the cooperative heist shooter will see the original gang – Dallas, Hoxton, Wolf and Chains – coming out of retirement in a world that has further transitioned into the digital age.
