On top of that, Overkill later revealed that the PC version would be getting support for the HTC Vive and Oculus Rift, bringing the entire game to VR and allowing for cross-platform play with non-VR players.Īnd finally, between December 2017 and November 2018, the game would see its seemingly final year of content updates spread across four events, which tell a new story arc revolving around an Illuminati-esque secret society known as the Kataru.

It was also announced the following month that the PC version of the game would be rebundled into the 'Ultimate Edition', removing the need to separately buy its overwhelming amounts of DLC said edition retails for $45, far less than the normal cost of all the DLC combined, with the bonus that anyone who already owned the base game and any amount of DLC can simply upgrade to the Ultimate Edition for a much-reduced price, close to the equivalent of the typical 75%-off sale for whatever DLC they don't own.

Almost all of the music can be heard via the in-game jukebox for free (provided you own the core game), and several can be heard for free on the PAYDAY Bandcamp page and composer Simon Viklund's site.Ģ017 was a big year for the game - in April, it was announced the game would be getting ported to the Nintendo Switch, with the port releasing in February 2018. Like its predecessor, the soundtrack can be found on Steam as downloadable albums of the game OST and the GO Bank Christmas singles. Furthermore, on October 25, it was announced that Overkill would be partnering up with their friends at Lion Game Lion, an independent studio that branched off from their company, to produce another series of new heists.

As reward for getting over 1.5 million members five days early, several major upgrades were released (some still ongoing). The game is also receiving continued updates every few weeks, which as of Ultimate Edition, includes free content and bug fixes.Įspecially of note is that, as a thank you to the community, free bonuses were released for the series' third anniversary: dubbed CrimeFest, the content is available to everyone enlisted in the official Steam group, with each reward given for passing member milestones before the anniversary. The successful beta test from the community had the developers release the first DLC, Armored Transport Heist, for free towards anyone who pre-ordered the game. The game had five DLCs planned, until Overkill's publisher 505 Games gave several million dollars in funding to ensure content and support for the game for the next 20 months. The series can be found for free on Youtube as well as several other websites. The series was produced and directed by Demian Lichtenstein, who also directed 3000 Miles to Graceland, and was co-produced by Overkill Software. The series showcases the main characters in action while also showing minor characters that play a role in the overall story arc, or what kind of people they are.

In addition to the game, Overkill Software created a promotional mini-series, simply called PAYDAY: The Web Series, which consists of six episodes (averaging at about 10 minutes each) based on the game.

The game also contains weapon mods that allow players to tweak and customize weapons as they wish for optimal performance, as well as customizable masks that have different materials, patterns, and colors. Supplementing class skills are perk decks that grant passive abilities (including four perks shared across every deck, like slightly higher headshot damage, and slightly faster movement while wearing armor, and five unique perks for each deck, like health bonuses for having hostages, regaining some health by killing enemies, moving faster, and having faster armor regen at lower health, etc.) that are applied to the player and sometimes the rest of the crew.

Rather than having swappable classes, the game uses a more refined character class system you spend skill points to level up different class trees that contain different abilities, allowing you to mix-and-match abilities. Like its predecessor, PAYDAY 2 involves hitting a target for huge cash bonuses, and carries a lot of similarities: guys in clown masks, tropes and ideas borrowed from heist movies, and core mechanics that mirror the Left 4 Dead series. Eventually, the original Hoxton was brought back to the fold through a prison break, and his replacement was renamed 'Houston' to avoid confusion. After fan outcry, the voice actors returned, save for Chains ( who remained the same character in-story) and Hoxton ( who was replaced in-story by Dallas's brother). This wasn't the case initially, due to a complicated situation involving the original voice actors being replaced. The game follows the same crew of hardened criminals Dallas, Chains, Wolf, and Hoxton who have moved on to bigger and better heists in Washington, D.C.
