Overkill Software’s PayDay 2 may be aspiring to be the “Dark Souls of heist games” butt here’s a substantial amount of lore governing the series. Take the PayDay web series for example: Episode 3 is now available, and for those who are keeping track, this episode sees the FBI discovering a connection between the crew and a bigger threat. Colourful characters also abound Crime.net as Hector and Lucas make their presence felt. And what will Bain do to keep from getting caught?
Meanwhile, PayDay 2 will be releasing on August 15th for Xbox 360, PC and PlayStation 3. Following up from the original’s heist-based gameplay, you’ll fight alongside friends to pull off 30 heists and kill anyone who gets in your way. Which is usually a lot of people, so have fun with the new and improved gun combat.
Crime Net will also make an appearance in the game, only functioning as a mission prerogative and unlocking heists depending on conditions fulfilled during missions.
