The gang is back, and they have bigger and better plans. Objective based cooperative FPS became more complicated. The classic group of Hoxton, Dallas, Chains and Wolf got reinforcement, and now Payday Gang consists of 21 heisters, some of which are based on movie characters or even Youtubers.

The vehicle modelling is the draw: aircraft, tanks and ships with per-component damage, and simulator modes that go far beyond arcade handling. Free to start. The grind is the well-known cost — progression slows sharply at higher tiers, repair costs punish bad matches, and the pressure toward premium purchases becomes hard to ignore.

A tactical shooter aiming for pre-Vegas Rainbow Six: lethal, slow, no regenerating health. That intent is clear and the appeal is real for the audience it targets. The execution is not — it released visibly unfinished, with broken AI, minimal mission variety and no save system, and it was widely criticised on those grounds.

Wall-running and thrust jumps make it the most mobile campaign in the series, and the four-player co-op campaign is a genuine structural change. Zombies is at its most elaborate here. The story is close to incomprehensible, the campaign is the weakest part of the package, and the PC version's supply-drop economy drew heavy criticism.
