Well, look at the time, PAYDAY 3 is almost here, and yet, still, there are players who don’t know if it’s multiplayer. Don’t worry, though. Today, we’ll break it down, nice and slow, for y’all. We’ll explain just what the heck type of multiplayer, if any, PAYDAY 3 has. First of all, the fact that this question needs answering means one of two things. 1, You’re new to the series, in which case, is so, you get a pass.
If it’s not that, then you know about the previous 2 PAYDAY games. But you wanna know if the third game’s gonna be any different. Either way, both are valid reasons. So, we’ll be catering to both camps. Well answer this query and leave you in the know about all things about PAYDAY 3’s multiplayer.
Does PAYDAY 3 Have Multiplayer?
Alright, we’re not messing around and getting straight to the point. The long and short of it is that PAYDAY 3 has a multiplayer component. BUT! Before you leave, hear us out. The multiplayer in question isn’t the traditional one, like in other competitive first-person shooter games like Apex Legends. Instead, the game’s rather more straightforward in its multiplayer approach.
Essentially, you’re not gonna be competing against each other, but working together in a co-op style approach. Also, PAYDAY 3 is online-only, so yeah, you’ve been warned. The goal, as the name of the game implies is about scoring big with heists you accept. Of course, how you approach the situation and if you can work as a unit are big factors in how the heist goes.
Fail to do things right, and you’ll not only lose, but your team’s gonna feel it too. Espeically cause the main opposition now has those freaking cloakers!
What are the Chances of Traditional Competitive Play in the Future?
As of what we know before the game’s launch on Septemer 21, 2023, there are no plans in the immediate future for traditional multiplayer for PAYDAY 3. So, in short, don’t hold your breath for it.
However, its not all bad. Think about it, it’s because PAYDAY 3 is the way it is, that it feels so unique and refreshing. If it was out there chasing trends, we wouldn’t nearly be as interested in it. Still, if you’re hankering for some co-op competitive play, we’ve got just the thing.
How about you check out a few FPS games like Halo: Infinite? They greatly balance both singleplayer and competitive multiplayer. Hopefully they’ll tide you over, until you jump back into PAYDAY 3 on launch day.
