Payday 3 is currently in the ‘design phase’ and will make use of Epic’s Unreal Engine, developer Starbreeze has announced.
Payday 3 Update From Starbreeze
This is the first update we have actually heard on the game in a while, and although it’s not exactly a landslide of information, at least we know the project is still alive and kicking. Unsurprisingly, there’s still no release date confirmed, however we did get a teaser image of sorts in a new tweet, which we have actually embedded below.

Formerly, Starbreeze stated the company was still looking for a publisher for Payday 3, and before that stated that the follow up will most likely introduce in 2022-2023. In other words, the absence of information today is most likely not a surprise.
Payday is the company’s crucial brand name and we are looking for a good partner that can provide financial stability and has the marketing and distribution resources required to power the best possible launch and more development of the item.
