Hey there, fellow gamers! Today, we’re diving into the exciting world of Payday 3. And guess what? They’ve introduced a new weapon type called ‘Overkill’. Now, imagine these as your secret weapons, your Ace up the sleeve, separate from your regular primary and secondary weapons. These bad boys are like special abilities that can turn the tide of battle in your favor. So strap in and get ready for some serious firepower!

As of now, there are only two Overkill weapons available in the game. We’ve got the Marcom Mamba MGL grenade launcher, because who doesn’t love to make a big, explosive entrance? It’s got a revolver barrel that holds six rounds. You can unleash some serious carnage before needing to reload. The power is literally in your hands!
And let’s not forget the HET-5 Red Fox sniper. This bad boy is a beast. It’s got incredibly low recoil, making those headshots a piece of cake. Plus, it comes with a thermal scope. Yeah, you heard that right! Taking out enemies from a distance has never been easier. It’s semi-automatic and can hold a whopping 20 rounds. This beauty will be the envy of your squad.

Now, I know you’re itching to get your hands on that shiny new sniper, so let’s talk about how to unlock it. To get your mitts on the HET-5 Red Fox, all you need to do is reach Infamy Level 40. Sounds simple, right? Well, you’ll have to earn it by completing challenges, heists, and showing those cops who’s boss. That’s the price of greatness, my friend. But once you hit that level, it’s all yours, free of charge. Say goodbye to the grenade launcher and hello to sniping glory!
But hold on, how do you actually deploy these Overkill weapons? Easy peasy, lemon squeezy. In the bottom right corner of your HUD, you’ll spot the Overkill meter. This bad boy fills up as you complete objectives and take down enemies. Once it’s all the way up, Bob’s your uncle — a prompt will appear, ready for you to unleash hell. On PC, simply press ‘Z’ and watch the magic happen.

A package will be delivered right in front of you, like a gift from the gaming gods. Just interact with it, and voila, you’ll be armed to the teeth with your Overkill weapon of choice.

Now, choosing the best Overkill weapon for your build is crucial. Are you ready for this tough decision? Brace yourself! The grenade launcher is the complete opposite of subtle. We’re talking explosions that’ll shake the very foundations of the virtual world. It’s perfect for those times when you want to make a big n’ loud entrance or take out crowds of enemies. Hostages, anyone? This beast complements mid-range builds, so grab your assault rifle and go to town.
But if you prefer a more calculated approach, it’s time to pick up that sniper rifle. It may still pack a punch, but it’s all about precision and long-range play here. Hang back, provide cover fire, and take out those pesky snipers or reinforcements before they even know what hit ’em. It’s your ticket to being the ultimate support player, the team medic keeping everyone safe from a distance. No need to put yourself in unnecessary danger, my friend.
So there you have it, the lowdown on Payday 3’s Overkill weapons. The Marcom Mamba MGL and the HET-5 Red Fox are your keys to victory. Now go out there, wreak havoc, and show those cops who’s boss!
