How Many Heists Will Be Available in Payday 3 at Launch?
Payday 3 will launch with 8 unique heists, all set in New York City. While this may seem like a low number compared to Payday 2, which launched with 12 heists, Starbreeze Studios has assured fans that these heists will be much larger and more complex. They also plan to release at least 4 more heists post-launch, bringing the total to 12.
Here are all of the heists in PayDay 3 so far:
- No Rest for the Wicked
- Road Rage
- Dirty Ice
- Rock the Cradle
- Under the Surphaze
- Gold & Sharke
- 99 Boxes
- Touch the Sky
All the heist names have been revealed in Pre-release gaming. However, with fewer heists than Payday 2 on full release, couch-based criminals left and right have some questions about the few heists that will be available.
We will have to wait to see how many of the 8 heists be completed with stealth and without any kills or if any of the heists be completed without even putting on masks, like in Ocean’s Eleven.
- The Tightest Crew – The legendary Payday Crew, dreaded by the law and underworld alike, is back. Ripped from their peaceful retirement to rejoin the criminal world by a new threat, one born from the chaos the Crew left in their wake.
- Give in to your greed – Give outlet to your greed and let loose in PAYDAY 3. In addition to gold, cash and jewelry and any other valuables they might come across, you’ll be able to build a sizable collection of weapons, cosmetics and accolades.
- In PAYDAY 3 the choice is put in the hands of the players, deciding how to tackle the heist, whether you sneak or go in guns blazing, whether you let your hostages go or keep them around as pawns, whether you go at it alone or bring friends.
- Thrive in Co-op – Not just anyone is worthy of standing at your side for something as important as a heist. Likewise, PAYDAY 3 is best enjoyed with close friends in mind, whether you bring them from your childhood or make them along the road.
- Pre-order the Standard Edition in order to get The Trifecta Lootbag, including the Obsidian Glitz outfit and Venomous Verdigris mask.
What Changes Are There in Payday 3 Heists?
Although we do not know yet what changes and updates will be made we can give you some suggestions we would like to see in this game. Maybe there will be a change in Heist design ahead? Here are some other things we would like to see in these new heists:
- Is each heist unique, with its own look and feel, security systems, alarm systems, and features?
- Will this encourage players to check the location, experiment with the environment and their skills, and figure out the perfect execution plan?
- Do cameras become indestructible and do additional guards with unique features spawn on higher difficulty levels?
- Does this require players to adapt their strategies?
All these things would add to the scale of the heists leaving you and your Payday Gang in the criminal hall of infamy along with Scarface and John Wick.
