PlayStation Plus: Payday 2 Free for Members

Posted by Kristine Steimer // Sr. Community Specialist -

Heads up, PlayStation Plus members. It’s time for some serious shenanigans – Payday 2 is coming to the Instant Game Collection tomorrow. Team up with your friends to pull off a variety of heists, like robbing a convenience store or taking down a major bank vault. Completing these virtual crimes will net you both experience points to build out your character’s skill tree and cash to purchase new weapons and other goodies. For PS Vita owners, our final PS Vita PLAY title, TxK, will be available tomorrow at a discounted rate.

Such a great game. I already have it, but I highly recommend downloading it to any Plus members or anyone else, really. I have it for PS3 and PC. Great series.

Played it solo, bought it on steam sale.

Wasn't that into it but with friends playing along with, it could potentially be a ton of fun.

thats what nice about it being free, all you have to do to convince your friends to play is hit DL in the PS store and go make dinner.

Another reason not to trade your ps3 in

Absolutely, it really shines when you have a full team. Solo it's pretty pointless, but with a competent crew you can have a ton of fun. So many approaches to each job that it keeps it fresh, plus there's always subtle differences to map layouts and AI paths which keeps you on your toes and simulates those situations when sometimes things go sideways on a job.

is it really that good? i found the first one incredibly repetitive so i ignored the sequel.

[Joey_Leone]

That's the power of Sony.

Bought the first game, thought it was a good concept..waited on this due to the backlog when it dropped...glad its free so i can play it in spurts and not feel like money is sitting on my shelf..

[NeoTribe]

[N8]

I had mine on amazon to on preorder but I canceled because they have them at best buy. There where like 5 of them . dont wait! Go to best buy and get them

So jealous!

[cell989]

I really want to try out this game, seems like an awesome concept, I hope the execution is just as good

[SpitFireAce85]

I need a bigger HDD.

[HonkyLips]

I've been wanting to play this game. I'm glad it's coming around to my PS+ rental service.

[Fullmetalevolust]

Looks like I'll be playing payday 2 with my bro. I won't go far solo, not usually my type of game.
I was lookin' forward to remember me, I am so excited that it's coming this month, looks for a good story that could hook me in for hours of gameplay, just hope the fighting mechanics are solid enough to keep me engaged and immersed.
I need a bigger HDD, just like the person who said it earlier, some of them free games can be huge.

[MikeGdaGod]

worth a try

[FRAKISTAN]

Yeah,If you could mention always whether this is US or EU PS+ that'd be great

[rbluetank]

I have playstation plus on two ps3. I can not download dookie both ps3'. I tried to download metro light. it took 6 hrs to downloaded the game. when it tried to install; I got corrupt data file. please imagine waiting 6 hrs to download something and it becomes a waste of time.. I am going to call sony but I do not think they can fix this. I called them before and fix worked for a hot minute. I can not download some with out a 100% success rate with my plus. I will keep plus just for mp on certain games.....

If you have friends this game can be immense fun. Overall, I think it's only an average game though. The shooting mechanics leave a lot to be desired and the console versions are stright up ugly and have performance issues. The lack of a lean makes the stealth approach pretty inconsistent.
