Payday 3: The Ultimate Heist Adventure!
Starbreeze Studios recently lifted the curtain on the single-player mode of Payday 3! Brace yourselves, because this news might not entirely please everyone. Drumroll, please… an internet connection will be required in all game modes! Wait, where are you going? Before you ditch your excitement, hear me out. While the Payday series is well-known for its multiplayer mode, Payday 3 will also offer an option for lone wolves to team up with computer-generated criminals. So, put your anti-social tendencies on hold, my friends!
The Heist of a Lifetime
Payday 3, the highly anticipated sequel to the 2013 hit Payday 2, will transport you to a modern version of New York City. Get ready to embark on thrilling heists and robberies throughout the sprawling metropolis. But hold your horses! Since the days of Payday 2, the world has gone through some serious changes, and Payday 3 is diving headfirst into the chaos. Picture this: cryptocurrencies, heists tied to mass surveillance, and even the infamous Dark Web. It’s like a thrilling ride through the darkest corners of the internet!
The Good, the Bad, and the Online Connection
During a recent livestream, Starbreeze Studios’ global brand director, Almir Listo, spilled the beans. Payday 3 will indeed offer both multiplayer and solo game modes. However, there’s a hitch. Brace yourselves for this shocking revelation: an online connection will be required regardless of whether you’re playing with pals or going it alone. I can already hear the collective sighs echoing across the gaming world. But let’s delve into the reasoning behind this decision.
The necessity for an internet connection stems from Payday 3’s support for cross-progression and crossplay. It’s a small price to pay (pun intended) for the convenience of saving your progress and seamlessly transferring it across platforms. So, take a deep breath and kindly ask your ISP for a stable connection, because the Payday 3 crew has got you covered!
Frustration and Fisticuffs
Naturally, the revelation that an online connection is mandatory for Payday 3, even in solo play, ruffled some feathers. Players flocked to the livestream’s comment section, expressing their frustrations and disappointment. Many yearned for the ability to dive into the heist action even when offline, particularly those uninterested in multiplayer or cross-progression features. Some even threatened to abandon Payday 3 altogether and seek refuge in other Grand Theft Auto-like heist games. It seems like the absence of an offline mode hit a nerve.

Starbreeze Studios has gone above and beyond to revamp various aspects of Payday’s gameplay. From weapons and armor to scaling the game’s difficulty modes, they’ve left no stone unturned in their quest to deliver the ultimate heisting experience. So buckle up, grab your masks, and get ready to pull off the score of a lifetime!
