Like the first, you play as a heist group gang member, from old fashioned bank robberies to going up against cartel figures, or doing a politician’s dirty work. What you’ve come to enjoy in the first, the sequel ups the ante with all new types of heists and revamped skill trees. OVERKILL definitely brought out their big guns for this. The developers listened; you see it in the game.
GB: "Of course, Payday 2 has had its fair share of ups and downs as well, in spite of the success that it has enjoyed. For starters, the disparity between the game’s PC and console versions is a major issue that plagued the game for years on end, thanks to the frustrating optimization issues across platforms brought about by the Diesel Engine, which the game was developed on."
Payday 2 launched 10 years ago today, and a constant stream of updates still makes it worth playing ahead of Payday 3.
Starting today, Payday 2 is free at Epic Games Store. The free game offer runs until June 15. Once you claim it, it's yours to keep.
