At the same time, Payday 2 performs better than expected.
Key metrics for co-op shooter Payday 3 are now far below expectations, according to Starbreeze, the game’s development company. Both sales and player activity were below expectations.
Payday 3’s problems began right after its release. The developers were unable to promptly release patches and content updates for the game, which led to a massive outflow of players.
Starbreeze still believes that the situation can be improved. The developers note that in the gaming industry there are many examples of games with problematic starts that eventually achieved success.
Payday 3 is currently being patched by a team of Starbreeze veterans. The developers began work in January, the results of the work were not reported.
Starbreeze has some good news. Payday 2, the previous installment in the franchise, is currently performing better than expected; Perhaps some of the fans who temporarily abandoned Payday 3 have returned to the game.
