Starbreeze outlines plans for full year of Payday 3 DLC

Payday 3 is coming out in just over a week and Starbreeze is already teasing its post-launch content plans. Like Payday 2, there will be plenty of DLC for Payday 3 but that won't be all. In fact, the developers are already planning a big engine change that will see the game move to Unreal Engine 5. 

Payday 3 – Year 1 will include four major DLCs – Syntax Error, Boys in Blue, The Land of the Free and finally, Fear & Greed. The first DLC will arrive in Winter 2023, followed by a new DLC every three months or so right up to Fall 2024, at which point we should start hearing about plans for a second year of content updates.

Mixed in with these DLCs will be a number of free updates, including seasonal events, new playable characters, new enemy weapons, additional cosmetics, quality-of-life updates based on user feedback and finally, a shift over to Unreal Engine 5, which should boost the fidelity of the game as well.

Payday 3 officially launches on the 21st of September for PC, Xbox and PlayStation. The game will also be available day-one through Game Pass.
