If you prefer to attack the autumn and winter months much like a bear, hunkering down for the harsh weather and hibernating ‘til the spring, then do we have the game for you! Like guns, robbing banks, and looking dripped out whilst doing it? PAYDAY 3 is now here, and promises hours upon hours of chaotic fun.
Early Access is Live!
Lucky enough to own the Silver or Gold Editions of PAYDAY 3 for Xbox, PlayStation or PC? Well, get ready to start the game early, as you can now start your bank robbing career in Starbreeze Studios’ and Deep Silver’s newest title.
Unfortunately, those with the Standard Edition for the game, including players picking PAYDAY 3 up for free on Xbox and PC Game Pass, will have to wait until Thursday, 21st September to start playing.
A exhilarating co-op FPS experience is what PAYDAY 3 is all about, as the legendary PAYDAY Crew re-locates to New York City. The Big Apple is home to a wide array of high-security banks and vaults for you to rob, in any way you see fit. With up to four players in an online crew, you may choose to take the stealthier approach, and find keycards to clear the way, nobody harmed. Of course, many crews will be employing the guns-blazing method, and PAYDAY 3 caters with a variety of weapons.
Oh, and it wouldn’t be PAYDAY without a swathe of funky masks to don. Whichever character you choose to play as, you will certainly be doing so in style!

PAYDAY 3 on Game Pass Game Description
PAYDAY 3 is the much anticipated sequel to one of the most popular co-op shooters ever. Since its release, PAYDAY-players have been reveling in the thrill of a perfectly planned and executed heist. That’s what makes PAYDAY a high-octane, co-op FPS experience without equal.
Step out of retirement back into the life of crime in the shoes of the Payday Gang, the envy of their peers and the nightmare of law-enforcement wherever they go. Several years after the crew’s reign of terror over Washington DC has ended, they assemble once again to deal with the threat that roused them out of early retirement.
The Tightest Crew
The legendary Payday Crew, dreaded by the law and underworld alike, is back. Ripped from their peaceful retirement to rejoin the criminal world by a new threat, one born from the chaos the Crew left in their wake.
In order to identify and crush this new threat, the Crew is leaving their Washington DC roots behind them and moving to New York City. A new location will bring with it new challenges, but also new opportunities for a heister with a plan.
