505 Games and Overkill have locked down the date for Payday 2’s current-gen release. This version comes with the content updates and DLC that have been added along the way.

The gameplay has been retooled to include a new perk system and a planning phase. Players also will have access to another skill tree focused on stealth abilities. 

Those that pre-order will get in-game gear, including:

  • Red dot weapon sight modification available for use on all rifle weapons
  • Exclusive Skull mask
  • PlayStation 4 or Xbox One exclusive mask
  • Unique mask pattern titled "I LOVE OVERKILL"
  • Unique color pattern, only available with this unlock
