In the lead-up to the highly anticipated release of Payday 3, Starbreeze Studio has provided a tantalizing glimpse into the world of heisting with the game’s early access version.
As the game inches closer to its official launch, the developer has shared a treasure trove of player statistics that showcase the thrilling criminal exploits taking place within the pre-release build. From daring heists to staggering kill counts, players are leaving no stone unturned in their pursuit of criminal glory.
In a recent post, Starbreeze excitedly declares, “We’ve just completed our first day of Payday 3’s Play Early period,” and proceeds to unveil some jaw-dropping statistics that shed light on the audacious world of heisting. The statistics, presented in an image accompanying the post, begin with the number of secured bags.
So far, players have executed over three million heists, amassing a jaw-dropping 200 million in illicit cash. Equally impressive are the early access kill numbers, which have surged past 20 million. The statistics also reveal the most popular heists, with “No Rest for the Wicked” taking the top spot, closely followed by “Road Rage.” The third position is claimed by “Dirty Ice.”
It seems that loud heists have a magnetic appeal or are simply easier to execute, as they have attracted over 200,000 more participants than their stealthy counterparts. For those curious about the game’s top weapons, the CAR-4, Reinfeld 880, and SA A114 seem to dominate, although they’ve also been used for unintended civilian casualties (to the tune of a couple of thousand) and dispatching over a million adversaries. Impressively, more than 300,000 shots have landed as critical hits.
Additionally, the early access community appears to value teamwork and camaraderie, with nearly half a million revivals recorded. These statistics not only provide a fascinating insight into the current state of the game but also offer a tantalizing glimpse of what’s in store for players without early access.
As Payday 3’s release date approaches, aspiring heisters can prepare to embark on thrilling missions and criminal escapades with their trusted Reinfeld. The message from the development team is clear: “You’ve done well so far, heisters, keep up the good work!”
