What's new?

Heisters, As the year nears its end, and we head out for some much needed time off over the holidays, I just want to take a moment to say thank you. Your passion, your energy, and yes, even when you call us out – it’s always a reminder of just how much PAYDAY means to this community. That’s what keeps us going, every single day. While our launch didn’t start out the way we’d hoped, this year has been full of moments that made us laugh, reflect, and scramble. The…

Hello heisters, We hope you have had a great time with the update earlier this week, checking out First World Bank in all its reimagined glory and exploring its secrets (how many beavers did you find? ). While we are incredibly happy with how positive the reception has been, we do also see that some of our players are also sadly facing issues with the newest updates. This is not what we’re here to talk about in this post, but we still want to acknowledge that we do see these…

Heisters, it looks like heist-santa is right on time ahead of the holidays! First World Bank is coming to PAYDAY 3! Heck yea! Leading up to this heist, we saw a bunch of heisters requesting their favorites from the previous two games, and were always happy to see First World Bank mentioned often. It’s always fun to see a legacy heist make a return, and we’ve used this line before, but having the same level across three games is really cool! The changes made between PAYDAY: The Heist and PAYDAY…

Hello Heisters! What a week. Tuesday, we held a stream with Almir and our CEO Mats who discussed the statement from the investor report that started us on this journey “continuing to deliver amounts of value to our players with a significantly lower level of investment” – following that, the Payday community was understandably upset. Since that doesn’t sound great, Mats joined Almir in this Tuesday’s stream to answer a few questions. They weren’t able to answer everything, but here are the highlights as well as the notes we had…

“No plan survives contact with reality” as the saying goes. Such is for us here at Starbreeze as well. This blog will focus on a few changes happening to our schedule going forward.

One, the quality isn’t where it should be, and since the character is the first paid piece of content outside of the Year 1 Edition, we don’t want it to be disappointing in any way, hence it is delayed. The new…
