Releasing alongside the Boys in Blue update will be a Gold Pass, now available for purchase. Upgrading to the Gold Pass will give all base PAYDAY 3 Edition fans access to all Year 1 content. 
Solo Mode Beta 
The Boys in Blue Update introduces a Solo Mode Beta, addressing community feedback received since the game&#8217;s release.&nbsp;&nbsp; 
In this beta, the sections of the game previously hosted on PAYDAY servers are now hosted on players&#8217; devices. What it does is skip the matchmaking step, meaning players still must log in and have access to the internet, but only for the initial identification and start up. This is the first step to support a full offline option in the future.
In PAYDAY 3: Chapter 2 – Boys in Blue, the Gang continues to unravel the web of betrayal surrounding former Murkywater CEO John Concord. The gang is tasked with enacting revenge on behalf of their old friend Vlad, breaking into a secure holding facility of the NYPD. In return, they’ll get a piece of the loot and access to private correspondence between a corrupt police captain and Concord.
The four most well-known clown-masked criminals in recent video game history returned from retirement last September in PAYDAY 3 on PC via PC Game Pass, on Steam and Epic Games Store, as well as Xbox Series S|X, on Console Game Pass, PlayStation 5 and GeForce Now.

PAYDAY™ 3: “Chapter II: Boys in Blue” Out Now

PAYDAY 3: Dev Update 06

Continuing from its 1.0 release in May 2024, the strategy and base-builder game ’The Tribe Must Survive’ today released a new patch that includes a new community requested game mode that allows for a more casual experience as well as 15 new achievements designed to challenge the core community to tackle “Impossible Strategies”.
Exploring a Lovecraftian Stone Age &#8211; at your own pace The Tribe Must Survive divides its gameplay into two modes: Survival Mode and Explorer Mode. Survival Mode remains the core experience, featuring all five Disasters, inner conflicts and other challenging modifiers. The new Explorer Mode provides a relaxed gameplay experience with no Disasters or Inner Conflicts, allowing players to delve into the game&#8217;s core mechanics at their own pace. This mode, with a Tribe Population cap of 300, offers reduced XP gain and does not support Achievements, yet still requires strategic decision-making to ensure the Tribe thrives.
Master the Impossible In addition to the Explorer mode, a new array of achievements have been added to the game’s Survival Mode. The 15 completely new achievements are inspired by what the community has named the “Impossible Strategies”, ways of completing a play session that require extreme skill, knowledge and a pinch of luck to pull off.
In addition, the update includes a number of minor features, Quality of Life improvements, and general fixes.
The Tribe Must Survive There’s no single way to survive, and each run will have different advantages and troubles for the player to solve driven by the Tribe Members&#8217; behaviors. The game is made to be a challenge, though each failure only serves to bring players closer to the next success.
