Cooperative heist FPS Payday 2 has reached new heists of National Treasure-ish nonsense with the addition of a heist sending us into the White House to steal presidential pardons for ourselves. Sure. I’ve loved Payday’s escalation over time from robbing banks by means of conspiracies and Illuminati and strange artifacts, and naturally it results in the White House. What else may it do – steal the Declaration of Independence? Nicolas Cage already beat the gang to that. The free heist is reside now and ends this chapter of the Payday story pretty conclusively.
Yes, we’re busting into the White House to steal presidential pardons for ourselves. Apparently they maintain a vault full of signed and stamped pardons with clean names, and it’s completely legit when you steal one and fill your personal title. Checks out. It’s a tough heist, with numerous obstacles and obstacles to beat as we undergo and underneath the White House, to not point out safety. It may be stealthed, although that was definitely past my crimeskills.
See the Breaking News event page for extra on the story that unfolded throughout eight days.
Completing the heist unlocks a brand new live-action cutscene, named The End. It caps off months of story that ran by means of many crimes and updates, and appears to fairly definitively finish this chapter of Payday. Starbreeze confirmed Payday 3 way back in 2016 and this ‘ending’ does appear to trace at the place which may go story-wise. If this finally ends up as the ultimate huge content material replace, dang, it’s been a trip.
Developers Overkill Software have added a lot to Payday 2 since its launch in August 2013, recurrently whacking in new heists and weapons and characters totally free. Yeah, they’ve launched tons of paid DLC too and it does suck that some highly effective gear is confined to DLC, however not less than everybody in a celebration may play a DLC heist if one participant owned it and this scheme appears to have funded years of free updates too. I’ve acquired extra from it than I ever anticipated.
Payday 2 is on sale proper now. The base game is all the way down to £3.74/€4.99/$4.99 on Steam whereas the Ultimate Edition containing nearly all of the DLC (lacking just one fundraiser character pack) is £8.48/€11.29/$11.29.
