Will Payday 3 be available to play on PlayStation? Yes and no — here’s what we know.
Is Payday 3 Available on PlayStation?
Payday 3 will be available to play on PlayStation 5 consoles upon release, just another title in line to boast current-gen exclusivity for the time being. While disappointing to those who still hold their PS4 near and dear, the game’s day-one availability on PS5 seems to take advantage of the console’s capabilities, promising top-notch graphics and liquid smooth gameplay.
What’s more, PlayStation has posted trailers for Payday 3, which viewers have been quick to praise. Citing the ambitious gunplay featured in the game, it seems the potential player base is now eager to get their pre-orders in for one of four game editions and take part in a heist with friends to test out just how well the new title will hold up upon its release next month.
Is Payday 3 coming to PS4?
While Payday 3 won’t be available on PS4 upon release, it is rumored that the title will come to PS4 post-launch. However, this information has not yet been explicitly confirmed by publisher Deep Silver or developer Starbreeze Studios. At the time of writing, we can assume Payday 3 will be exclusive to current-gen systems and consoles.
