Game Director on PayDay 2 David Goldfarb said, "We have a bit of a problem here at Overkill - there are just too many great ideas and none that we were really happy to throw out - so PayDay 2 has become just too big to reserve release on Xbox Live and PlayStation Network alone."

"It's an incredible position to be in, having a game that just keeps growing and getting better all the time," added Head of Global Brand at 505 Games, Tim Woodley. "We wanted to do everything we could to make a game that truly fits the vision of the team at Overkill but most importantly delivers an exciting, rewarding experience for the player - be they a long-time fan or new to the series.  We're expecting great things from PayDay 2 and are really looking forward to working with our retail partners all over the world to make it the huge success it deserves to be."
