Congratulations, Starbreeze Studios! PAYDAY 2’s sales have been going strong since its August release. Just hitting the 1.6 million mark across all platforms a few days ago, this comes at no big surprise to us; it’s a fantastic co-op game.

Welcome back to another episode in PAYDAY 2’s ongoing web series! This week, we look at how the team escapes the bank with swarms of SWAT team members on their asses. Having been pinned down in the vault and with multiple hostages in their possession, it will take every member of the team to get out alive with the loot intact.

PAYDAY 2’s promised web series has finally begun! Directed by Demian Lichtenstein, known for his work on “3000 Miles to Graceland”, expressed his gratitude in working on this project. In an effort to cross promote the fantastic series that 505 Games and Starbreeze Studios have created, we are now given a little bit more backstory into the history of the PAYDAY heist team and their inner workings through Lichtenstein’s own vision.

There’s no question that PAYDAY: The Heist took the Left 4 Dead formula and produced it into a solid co-op gaming experience. Thus, 505 Games and Overkill announcing that they're translating that into a new PAYDAY web series got us pretty excited, and with only a couple of months until the launch of PAYDAY 2. In addition, there’s actually an upcoming PAYDAY movie coming out too, which sounds pretty intriguing if it’ll be anything like the revealed trailer.
