The legendary Payday team, feared by law enforcement and the underworld alike, is back. The new threat posed by the chaos the team members left behind has forced them to leave their peaceful retirement and rejoin the criminal world. The team is leaving Washington DC and moving to New York to identify and crush this new threat. The new environment brings new challenges, but it also offers new opportunities for a bandit with a plan. In addition to the gold, cash, jewelry and other valuables you find, you'll also collect a vast collection of weapons, cosmetic items and prizes. Just showing up and getting your hands on the loot is not enough. You need to work hard and make a smart plan to escape with as much loot as possible. Gain experience, unlock new skills and learn how to use different weapons to become stronger and overcome more difficult challenges. A professional criminal knows that pulling off a successful heist requires planning, hard work and a fair amount of luck. You can choose how you want to carry out the heist - you can choose whether you want to reach your target by stealth or with a hail of gunfire, whether you want to free bystanders or hold them hostage, and whether you want to go it alone or take friends with you. The possibilities are endless and in your hands, and the choices you make will have a big impact on the course of the game. Looting is important, and not just anyone will do, as the game is at its best when played with friends.
