Description

Payday 3 for PC is a first-person shooter heist game, the sequel to 2013’s Payday 2 (which itself was a sequel to the first game, Payday: The Heist, released in 2011. Action picks up some time after the events of the last game, following which the characters went about their lives as relatively honest citizens – until now, when something has spurred their return to a life of crime.



About the Game


This time, the action is set mainly in New York, and the game is updated to the 2020s, with modern surveillance methods and cryptocurrency featuring to offer an authentic experience. Players must work together to complete several objectives, such as stealing bags of money or obtaining valuable materials, all the while trying to survive and escape from endless waves of law enforcement intent on stopping them.
You must use various weapons, tools, and strategies to avoid the law and get away with your ill-gotten, but hard-earned gains. The game – aware that it is the follow up to one of the most popular heist experiences on the market – offers you more in terms of interactions with other characters, weapons and equipment customisation, and not one or two but eight new missions to play through.



Fans of the game will be delighted to see some familiar faces: Hoxton the mastermind returns, along with Chains, the military man, while Dallas and Wolf also pop up from the first game, joined by Joy from the second and Pearl, who is all new to this game. Also new is the improved movement and gunplay which has benefited from the new advances in gameplay technology, as has the inclusion of plenty of mishaps to befall the felonious crew.
Choose your criminal path in life and follow it as far as you can, becoming an expert hacker or persuasive manipulator who can make people do things they don’t especially want to… Mix and match four of the seventeen available skills, to create your perfect heist guise, and then upgrade it to the max.

The soundtrack of the game is excellent, keeping your mood positive, even after being spotted by law enforcement and you start fighting for your freedom.



The Nitty Gritty


With cutting edge graphics and a killer soundtrack, the devs have definitely updated the right bits of the game, hanging onto the best bits: especially the familiarly thrilling gameplay. But before you even get to the game, you will enjoy customising your character and exploring the skill trees, which are nicely flexible to allow your unique preferences to shape your character.

Up to four players (cross-play is allowed) can team up to pull off the heists – they can be your friends or random strangers, depending on your set-up – and you will all have to pull your own weight to succeed. Unlike the strictly linear progress of the first game, you can explore your options before committing to one path of action or another, which is nicely freeing.



Not only can you take hostages, but you can trade them to get more time or resurrect a comrade. You might need to resort to these measures as the games get more complex the longer you play, despite the vast improvements to movements and manoeuvrability which make entirely stealth games possible.

Weapons are satisfyingly punchy to use, and you can use hostages as a shield which forces your enemies to try and get close to you to rescue them before tackling you – a good way to survive while you cross in front of the entire police force! You have thirty weapons to choose from, with plenty of choice to kit your character out to your satisfaction.



What Missions Are There?


The game kicks off with eight jobs available right away. Most games can be played two ways: full combat and stealthily. This game’s stealth options are more advanced than the first two games, and it is more possible to complete missions entirely using stealth. The missions include, amongst others:

  • Under the Surphase: an art museum heist that requires puzzle solving to get away with the priceless artworks

  • Gold and Shark Bank: A good old-fashioned bank heist that sees you getting to grips with a loaded, but securely locked, vault

  • Road Rage: An all-action armoured van heist which is a little more linear than the other missions, and has little scope for stealth so load up your best weapons before you head off to grab the loot!


  • Payday 3 for PC is available for purchase on Instant Gaming for a fraction of its retail price. You will receive an official key and be able to play the game in seconds. Play smart. Pay less.

    > Can't complete any challenges as they're bugged preventing me from levelling up

    > ''Online only'' to stop hackers yet I've seen several already and not to mention the horrific launch with Nebula I just don't understand why we couldn't have just stuck to peer to peer (if it ain't broke don't fix it)

    > Tired of waiting for a day 1 patch that seems to keep being pushed further and further back

    (For reference Payday 2 had roughly 11 patches in the 1st few months Payday 3 has not even had 1 yet and it's been almost a month)

    > 2 of the heists in game are unbeatable the nightclub in stealth still won't allow me or my team to pick up the crypto wallet in stealth and the Art heist despite picking up the correct paintings softlocks afterwards making it unbeatable

    > Devs are doing streams to take questions but the're honestly pointless as the info we get is always blunt ''we don't know'' ''bare with us'' or ''we're looking into it''

    > No health or Armour Regen effectively meaning that once you're out of both the game becomes stupidly tedious at least let us regen 1 slot of health or armour

    > No option to search for loud or stealth meaning people get toxic or rage quit

    > The god awful XP system forcing you to play how the game wants you to play or guess what you can 0 xp regardless how difficult a heist was which is honestly one of the worst changes i've witnessed in a videogame tbh

    And this isn't even half the issues with this game

    I mean I could go on but i'm tired.

    I love this franchise but to see it end up like this is depressing for now don't give this company anymore money till they get their act together

    I have been playing this game for a while now, and overall I think it's a great game. At first, it had a rough start, with several bugs and glitches that made the game almost unplayable. However, the developers have done a great job of fixing many of these issues, and the game is now much more stable and enjoyable to play.

    One of the things I love about this game is the variety of heists that you can play. Each mission feels unique, and there are many different ways to approach each one. However, I do feel that there are too few heists to play. After a while, the missions can start to feel repetitive, and it would be great to see more added in future updates.

    Another issue I have with the game is that stealth doesn't feel rewarding. While it's fun to try and complete a mission without alerting any guards, there's no real incentive to do so. You don't get any bonuses for going stealth, and in fact, it can sometimes be more difficult than just going in guns blazing. I think it would be great if the developers could add some kind of reward for players who successfully complete a heist without being detected.

    The graphics in this game are fantastic, and the attention to detail is impressive. However, I do think that they could be a little bit more optimized. Even on high-end machines, there are sometimes framerate drops and other performance issues that can be distracting.

    Finally, the lack of ammo in this game is a problem. It can be frustrating to run out of ammo in the middle of a heist, especially if you're playing solo. It would be great if the developers could add more ammo drops or some other way to help players manage their ammo more effectively.

    Overall, I think this is a great game with a lot of potential. With a few tweaks and updates, it could be even better. I would definitely recommend it to anyone who enjoys heist games or first-person shooters.

    Top game like part 2.

    If you can't play stealth, it's more your fault than the game's. So far i have done every job stealth alone or with frinds.

    You don't like the key assignment? then change it ! very simple ..

    Why is the game bad because the body bags or in the lobby this planning map is missing? i don't know anyone who has ever used the map.

    We only drew / wrote sh*t on it in the second part ^^.

    I wouldn't have needed body bags until now, so something unnecessary has been removed. that's good.

    Yes, the skill system looks confusing at first look. At the "FIRST LOOK".

    Who does not understand it ... yes no idea ... leave the game but then please do not buy other games that have a skill system or talent tree that could confuse you just as !

    Sometimes the servers are down. But you have to expect that at release time. Is also not a big developer ... like ... blizzard for example ... ah so they never make it either.

    The number of missions for release are too few for you ? Dude ... You're pretty spoiled brats...

    Not a bad game, missing a lot of features from PAYDAY 2 which i hope they will patch in at some point but still i haven't even been able to play the game until very recently and even then, the servers keep being really laggy and the matchmaking crashes in the middle of matches or when just trying to find one, so i wouldn't recommend buying this and instead to hold off until they update the game in like a year, as with every game nowadays
    • Fun gameplay, vastly improved from PAYDAY 2
    • Graphics are fine, a bit generic maybe
    • Heists are fun and stealth has been drastically improved
    • Unstable servers, and broken matchmaking
    • Not much content but might improve in the future
    • Awful progression

    Very bad game, servers are trash and the game is glitchy. Not really much added since the last game, the maps are not really good either.

    Might aswell play Payday 2 if you want to play something like this.

    The game itself is perfect! It has a lot of new features and is really appealing from the graphics! The only con were the server issues at the launch of the game but for 30€ you cant be mad! Try it yourself!
    • New features!

    If I could even log-in to the game and play it I'd love to give it a fair review, until then. This is such a massive let down, all you had to do was take what payday2 did and make it a little better..
    • The menu looks nice
    • Music in the menu sounds nice
    • Game seems to load fast into the menu
    • Servers are 100% offline all the time
    • I can't log in
    • Im getting sick of looking at the menu

    Progression based on challenges (lmao), weapons feels weak, no hideout no real planning, nothing that made payday 2 a decent game.

    Horrible lauch due to poor planning from the devs, that's what you get when you go from peer-to-peer to a client server infrastructure without the mean to maintain and scale it properly.

    I know it's impossible but I wish instant gaming would refund me the key

    Ive been playing PD3 for a few hours now, though i've only been in gameplay for roughly 40 minutes. The rest of the time has been in lobbies trying to find a match. Even if you play SOLO you still need to wait for a match for some odd reason. I feel so bad for the gamers who had preordered the silver and gold editions only to wait on a match. The devs seriously need to do some work on the server side of the game. Although i would say that the gameplay is very fun.
    • Good gameplay
    • Long waiting time between matches

    Perfekt, just Perfekt. It obviously lacks of Content compared to Payday 2 but they will do their best to bring some. The Game works totally fine and is hella fun. I give this Game a 10 outta 10 because it is exacly as good as advertised. :D
    • Koop Heisting fun
    • Stealth is just fun but still challenging
    • ITS PAYDAY M#TH3RFU**ERS!!!!!
    • Just 8 (very good) Heists at Launch
    • Nothing
    • Nothing 2x

    Saved around $20 dollars purchasing it here instead of Steam. Can't think of a time that saving money on a digital product would be a bad thing.

    Random line of text to meet recommended character limit.
    • Good Price
