![]() Understandably, the Payday community has been somewhat jilted by this experience, and I can totally understand that. The hype train grew in momentum daily, but was totally derailed by the final reveal this morning: it’s not another Payday game or update, it’s a new Walking Dead game, complete with appearance by Robert Kirkman to vouch for the studio. Plus, this isn’t totally unheard of: a heist in the first game crossed over with Left 4 Dead and saw the four characters running through Mercy Hostpital to locate a patient with the “Green Flu” and extract a blood sample, essentially playing with a whole patient-zero what-if scenario. ![]() Many picked up on the possible zombie theme early, excited to see a shift in the Payday mentality to some degree.Īfter all, the countdown led up to the anniversary of the release of Payday 2, and was pumped through the official Payday steam community group. Cruising through the subreddit r/paydaytheheist, I’d see speculation daily on what was upcoming. It was a month-long hyper-overt guerrilla marketing stint that was slowly releasing audio clips to indicate what was, you know, next from OVERKILL and their managing publisher Starbreeze. So if you’re a fan of Payday 2 like I am, you probably at least cast a cursory eye on the “What’s Next” campaign that OVERKILL had running on their website.
