This information comes from Aggiornamenti Lumia on Twitter, who discovered this possible leak and shared it on social media. It’s still unclear, however, if this release will be simultaneous on all platforms, as the game has been previously confirmed to be in development for at least PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X/S.
While all non-official information should be taken with a grain of salt, Aggiornamenti Lumia has a pretty good track record when it comes to leaks. Previously, they have leaked information likeImmortals Fenyx Risinggoing to Xbox Game Pass, and the release date forLords of the Fallen, for example. So, it’s fair to say that this is a decent source of information aboutPayday 3’s release date.
According to previously revealed information about the game,Payday 3will be set in New Yorkand have a modern focus. Some time ago, the developers talked about dealing with how security technology has changed in the last few years, and how this will impact the title’s gameplay. The game will offer a vast range of gadgets that could be used during heists, and players could, for instance, use the money they robbed to buy cryptocurrencies and get more weapons in the black market without being tracked by the police. Still, it remains to be seen if these changes will help the new entry in the franchise to become as popular asPayday 2was, especially as it has more competition around than the previous game had in 2013.
Payday 3is currently slated to be released in 2023 for PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X/S.
