Payday 3 marks the long-awaited return of the FPS franchise. Fans worldwide are looking forward to the game, and it has already been wish-listed by over 1 million users on Steam. However, the developer has not announced a release date yet.
While an official announcement is expected soon, an insider has leaked the release date ahead of the official reveal. According to the report, Payday 3 will be available on September 21, 2023.
Why it matters: It has been nearly 10 years since Payday 2 was released, and fans have longed for a sequel. A teaser for the game was released last month, but it did not announce a release date.

The leak comes from ALumia_Italia, a reliable leaker known to reveal information before official announcements. Previously, Starbreeze Studios announced a 2023 release window for Payday 3, but the developer has not elaborated beyond this rough period.
The developer recently confirmed a gameplay reveal for summer 2023, and this will likely include the announcement of the official release date. With events like Summer Game Fest and the Xbox Games Showcase lined up for this week, the developer has various opportunities to make a huge Payday 3 announcement.
Therefore, the next few days could be an exciting time for the franchise.
The Payday franchise features intense FPS gameplay based around heists and robberies. It has garnered a massive fanbase over the years, with over 38 million players, and Payday 3 is expected to be another successful entry for the series.
If the leak is accurate, fans will be able to enjoy a new Payday title in just a few months, making for an exciting addition to the already impressive slate of games in 2023.
