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.

Deep Silver and Starbreeze unveiled a brand-new Payday 3 gameplay trailer that reveals rapper and actor ICE-T as a brand-new NPC in the Payday universe.

ICE-T is one of the most outspoken and multifaceted artists in the world. In the Payday 3 universe, ICE-T plays the character Mac, a quest-giver who provides new missions to players.

In the "99 Boxes" heist, players can team up for four-player co-operative gameplay to infiltrate a highly secured container storage area. True to the core experience of the Payday franchise, the "99 Boxes" heist in Payday 3 can be approached in two ways: by sneaking into the warehouse avoiding guards, cameras, and workers with a stealth approach or go by going loud, guns blazing, which usually ends up in explosive shootouts with the police and SWAT teams calling in helicopter support. Whichever way players go, the goal is to team up and come out with the ultimate Payday.

Payday 3 will have a large presence at gamescom 2023 with the "99 Boxes" heist playable in the PLAION business booth (Hall 4.2 Booth B041-D050) and the PLAION consumer booth (Hall 9.1 Booth B010-C019). Aspiring heisters are welcome to join the gang for another round of chaos and crime.
