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.

Payday 3 takes players to the city of unlimited possibilities - New York City.

The Payday Gang, consisting of Dallas, Hoxton, Wolf and Chains return from retirement, and find themselves in the Big Apple after an unknown threat appears, shattering the illusion of peacefully living on the “right” side of the law. As they say, “Leopards can’t change their spots”, and thanks to years of experience and a mysterious new player in the criminal underworld, they quickly get their hands on the first lucrative heists and leave their explosive calling card with the city's security and police forces.

Players will discover new ways to pull off the perfect heist thanks to new skills, gadgets and weapons while the PAYDAY 3 storyline will continuously expand with new content and challenges.

Get your first in-depth look into Payday 3 and meet with some of the talented people who are responsible for bringing it into the world. In the first episode we cover some basic information about who from the Payday Gang is returning and take a look at our new setting - New York City!

In somewhat of an odd twist, developer Starbreeze Studios revealed that Payday 3 is currently using Unreal Engine 4 but that they are planning on upgrading to Unreal Engine 5 post launch.
