It’ll be out in 2026, and Starbreeze are being upfront with the fact it’ll be a games-as-a-service-type game.

    Payday 3 was horrible, no trust in them anymore.

      Did you play launch payday 2? The only reason payday 2 is good is because they’ve spent so much time on it past launch.

        This argument is nonsense. The same Dev that did all that work to improve Payday 2 then released the shit Payday 3. Maybe if they’d never made a similar game before there might be an acceptable explanation, but that’s the exact opposite of what happened with payday 3.

          You’re comparing a game on launch to a game with 10+ years of updates.

          Play launch Payday 2 in 2023.

          And you’re ignoring the improvements they’ve actually made w/ 3 like having one of the most in depth stealth systems of any game.

          Plus they built 3 on an entirely different engine because of the inherit flaws in the Diesel engine.

            Yes. THEY realised these improvements were needed, made them, and then the same THEY released a sequel without those improvements. What are you defending here, failing to learn from mistakes? Inability to get better at their craft? They shouldn’t need to go through another ten years of updates to get a decent game, especially when it’s the third in the series.

              The only repeated error they’ve made was releasing a game with too few maps on launch. Which I can excuse them for not have 85+ hiests on launch. Other issues with the third game come from them changing the old formula in new ways in an attempt to make a better game.
