PAYDAY™ The Heist

Play as one of four career criminals carrying out heists and other criminal operations. You can play alone with AI partners or team up with up to three other players. Each mission involves completing objectives and getting the crew and its loot out safely. A heist may begin quietly, but an alarm can bring waves of police, turning the operation into a fight for survival. Use weapons and equipment while coordinating positions and roles with your team. Earn money and experience to progress through skills and unlocks, and take on missions at different difficulty levels.

Team up as one of four robbers to complete heists, secure loot, and survive escalating police assaults.
