Payday 3 developer Starbreeze has appointed a new interim CEO, claiming that it needs "different leadership" in order to achieve its strategy around creating "attractive games." The leadership shakeup comes after Payday 3 massively underperformed since it launched in 2023, with players continually flocking back to the previous game in the series, Payday 2.

Payday 3 has largely been ignored by the dedicated Payday community of players. Developer Starbreeze Studios launched the game back in September 2023 to lackluster sales, and many Payday fans continued to play Payday 2 over the most recent entry in the series. Now, the studio has put out a dev blog detailing exactly what they see the problems are with Payday 3, and how they plan on approaching fixing them in future updates.
