The third installment of the squad-based heist action series, Payday 3, has finally been released. The story is set years after the notorious crew took over Washington DC, and this time around, Dallas, Hoxton, Chains, and Wolf are forced to come out of retirement to confront a new threat.
The latest version of the popular co-op shooter series features a thrilling selection of high-stakes heists, with the Payday crew being called back into action by a dangerous threat. Once again, the gang will be the envy of their peers and a source of terror for law enforcement as they carry out some of the most daring and lucrative robberies in criminal history.
Although the game maintains the core elements of stealth, action, and heist-building that made its predecessors so successful, developer Starbreeze Studios has introduced some exciting new features and made a few necessary adjustments to the gameplay.

Does Payday 3 Support Cross-play?
One of the fans’ most pressing questions is whether Payday 3 supports cross-play.
Cross-play is a great feature that allows players to access online multiplayer games with friends, regardless of the platform they are on. This has become even more important in recent years as more and more gamers have multiple platforms.
Fortunately for franchise fans, Deep Silver and Starbreeze Studios have confirmed that Payday 3 supports cross-play.
Is Payday 3 Going to Be on Game Pass?
Yes, Payday 3 is now available on Game Pass. As the developer Starbreeze Studios confirmed before, Payday 3 was released for every gaming platform at the same time on September 21, 2023, and joined the Xbox Game Pass collection from day one.
How Many Heists Are There in Payday 3?
Payday 3 will feature 8 heists on launch day, with four more coming via the Season Pass. While fewer missions exist than the 12 in Payday 2, Starbreeze Studios promised that each heist would be larger and more elaborate than the previous game.
From bank robberies to art gallery capers, there are plenty of ways for players and friends to make a name for themselves in the criminal underworld of New York City.

Starbreeze has unveiled the official minimum and recommended PC system requirements for Payday 3, the high-octane co-op heist shooter.
