If you are having issues with an unmodded game you can try to verify the integrity of the game files. In the steam library; right click on PAYDAY 2. Select "Properties" from the menu. Under the tab "LOCAL FILES" select "VERIFY INTEGRITY OF GAME FILES...".
The process may take some time to finish.

Updates may be incompatible with the mods you may have installed. Even seemingly unrelated mods may cause unexpected issues. If you are experiencing any issues with the game; try removing any mods you may have installed and try again.

Upcoming changes to the Texas Heat DLC campaign!

[h2]Hello Heisters![/h2]

We’ve heard you! By public request, we’re changing how we’re packaging PAYDAY 2 DLC for the Texas Heat campaign! Similar to what we did with Silk Road in 2020, we will let you buy the DLC’s upfront at a reduced price.

So how exactly is this going to work? The bundle will be released first, alongside one DLC. The following DLCs will then be added later for anyone who owns the bundle and also released separately as we did during City of Gold. We are doing it this way to give our teams the time they need to work stress-free on delivering quality content, while also providing you all with the discounted option you have been asking for.

Keep in mind, if you purchase any of the DLCs separately, you’ll be unable to purchase the bundle afterwards as these bundles will not be able to adapt their price to what you already own.

The first bundle will be available in mid-April, keep an eye out for more information about the bundle contents on the day of release. We will also be hosting an AMA on the r/paydaytheheist subreddit on the 22nd of April to give you a chance to ask us questions, whether it’s about this new bundle system or anything else on your mind surrounding PAYDAY.

PAYDAY Spring Sale 2022

Spring is upon us, with warmer weather, flowers in bloom, and of course Steam sales. Starting now, and until the 11th of April you can grab PAYDAY 2, PAYDAY: The Heist and related DLCs at great discounts up to 83% off. Check out the store pages or see the links below to see the available deals.

Here’s some of the highlights:
