Payday 3 visited at www.games.chWe are left in doubt, Due to the PayDay 3 not being mentioned in the list meaning it will not release in 2020 thus won’t contribute to the expected revenue.
PayDay 3 will be something else, in a recent interview, PayDay producer Almir talked about the game and said it will be something else, however, he didn’t reveal anything for the upcoming game because it might change in the future.
In January, Starbreeze raised $44 million to speed up the production of PayDay 3 and cover costs of Overkill’s The Walking Dead.
In other news, Despite having been released 4 years ago, Overkill is continuing its promise of delivering updates for Payday 2, this time in the form of Payday VR which will come later this year.
In related news, Starbreeze also mentioned in their financial statement that gameplay for Overkill’s The Walking Dead will be revealed at E3 2018. Recently we got our first look at the second character of the game, Maya who was revealed through a trailer full of emotions and horror.
