Payday shifts PUBG's gameplay toward team coordination and objective-based strategy, allowing players to approach missions through stealth or direct combat.
- Players can choose from five classes—Assault, Medic, Tank, Marksman, and Ghost—each offering unique strengths for completing objectives and supporting the squad.
- Throughout each mission, players can strengthen their team through class-specific Ultimates and Gadgets, while unlocking additional skills and weapons by securing more loot and completing heists.
- Missions take place across a variety of urban environments inspired by locations from Payday 3, including The Exchange, Diamond District, Nightclub, and Road Rage. The team must secure loot such as cash, gold, or jewelry before making their escape.
Event Pass and Additional Content
Alongside the new mode, PUBG: Battlegrounds has introduced the "Event Pass: Payday," which includes Payday Gang-themed cosmetics and additional rewards.
"With Payday, we set out to expand PUBG: Battlegrounds beyond its traditional gameplay by introducing a more strategic, team-driven experience," said Taehyun Kim, Director of PUBG: Battlegrounds. "Through our collaboration with Starbreeze Entertainment, we've combined PUBG's signature intensity with the depth of the Payday IP to deliver a new kind of heist gameplay for players."
"The Payday franchise is the ultimate heisting fantasy, the thrill of the perfect score, the camaraderie of a tight crew, and the rush of pulling it off against all odds," said Adolf Kristjansson, CEO of Starbreeze AB. "Bringing that spirit into PUBG: Battlegrounds is a moment of real pride for everyone at Starbreeze, and working alongside the team has been a privilege from day one."
