We are updating the game with a small patch to remove the Raid Beta menu. You can still visit Aldstone's fancy new room and unlock the weapons and masks if you haven't already.

We will see you again on the front-lines and by the thermal drill.

Here comes a small hotfix for the new WW2 Armor Skin Names. We apologize for mixing up the different origins of the camo skins but in our defense, camouflage is made for not being seen. Mission accomplished. The names are now fixed in-game as well as on the Steam Marketplace.

We hope you all had a jolly good time finding the last missing trophies to make Aldstone’s new room complete. With today's update we are not only releasing new masks, weapon skins and armor skins but also the long awaited Armor Workshop.

Day 2 of "Aldstone’s Heritage" is live! Check it out for yourself and don't forget to come back tomorrow for the final day!


Mud, camouflage, or legendary engravings? The new WW2 Weapon Safe has it all. Don’t worry, we didn’t forget about the yesterday released weapons! Enjoy your new Parabellum Pistol, MP40 or Galant Rifle in a completely new light.


Russia, Germany or Britain. On the ground, up in the air or on the water. Look like a german camouflage soldier at the front line or a highly ranked Navy Admiral. It is your choice! With this new Safe, 6 war approved skins awaiting you!


You got the weapons, you got the armor! The last piece missing to complete your outfit would be the fitting headwear! Be a part of the PAYDAY 2 community and the new Survivor's Pilot Hat, Trophy Helmet, Officer’s Hat and a Proud Pilotka is all yours!


Promised during “The Search for Kento” we now deliver the long awaited Armor Workshop. That means, it’s again time to start drawing, utilize your photoshop skills and start making skins!

Never been to the workshop? Click here to find out more: PAYDAY 2: Workshop


Some of you may have already noticed, some not. Yesterday we released the WW2 Weapon Pack, but what we forgot to mention was the new “Slide Lock State” that we added to make the Galant Rifle as authentic as possible. Of course we didn’t stop at the Galant Rifle, this system is also available for all pistols including akimbo but excluding revolvers. But without further explanation, start the game, equip your new Galant, empty that magazine and see for yourself.

• MP40 Submachine Gun (Unlocked by Side Job: Prepare for War)

We have switched the runtime of the game to LuaJIT which will result in an overall better game performance. Sadly this means that Lua mods using the BLT will not work until they got updated. Besides that we further investigated the patch system and did some adjustments that should reduce the patch time for everyone in addition to using less disk space.

If you are currently using any BLT mods an update is required. This can be downloaded here:
https://github.com/JamesWilko/Payday-2-BLT

Please remember that we cannot officially support user created mods. If you are having crashes or other issues disable modding before contacting support.
