Starbreeze Entertainment today releases a cinematic live action trailer for the highly anticipated PAYDAY 3, coming on September 21st, 2023. The high-octane trailer features musical compositions by the world-renowned Vienna Symphony and introduces American actor and rapper Ice-T to the PAYDAY-universe. The live action trailer leads into PAYDAY 3s presence at Gamescom 2023 in Cologne, Germany.
Ice-T comments on the collaboration: “As a fan of the game, joining the universe was a no-brainer. My knowledge of both sides of the law – both personally and professionally – gives me a unique insight into what ’the art of heisting’ really means. I look forward to robbing more banks on September 21st, and to what this collaboration has in store for the future.”
Ice-T joins the ranks of actor luminaries who have appeared in the PAYDAY-franchise over the years, including Giancarlo Esposito, John Cleese, Bokeem Woodbine, Lance Reddick and Ron Perlman.
“We have a history of delivering action-packed cinematic trailers for our titles, and PAYDAY 3 is no exception. The story, action and gameplay elements of the PAYDAY IP lends itself to live-action in ways few others can match. The collaboration between our internal creative team, led by Oscar Wickman, and external partners, shows off the adrenaline-fueled world of PAYDAY like never before”, says Petra Takeva, VP Franchise, Starbreeze Entertainment.
Oscar Wickman, Creative Director, Starbreeze Entertainment, continues: “We follow one slippery stack of money and its journey from deposit to withdrawal. The core of the film is greed, and how it’s contagious not only to the PAYDAY-gang, but to everyone it touches. The collaboration between Starbreeze’ creative team, Thirsty Film and director Stefan Pflug has resulted in a film that I truly believe will be the fastest 5 minutes our viewers will ever experience.”
The high-paced trailer offers a glimpse into the adrenaline-fueled world of PAYDAY 3 – showcasing a meticulously designed heist, explosive action sequences and a highly immersive atmosphere. The game will be available Day-1 on Xbox Game Pass, on Xbox Series X|S, Playstation®5, Epic Games Store, Steam® and GeForce NOW. Pre-order PAYDAY 3 here!
