Payday 3 is still under construction, it will use Unreal Engine


 Three years after the initial announcement, the makers of the Payday 3 game have confirmed that it is still being worked on and have revealed which driver they will use.

The third part of the successful Payday series was announced back in 2017. That was before Starbreeze got into financial trouble, so last year they said they couldn't guarantee that Payday 3 would come out, but if things match up, we might play it in 2022 or 2023.

Now, through the official Twitter profile for Payday 2, they have confirmed that the game is officially in the design phase and that it will use Unreal Engine. It is not known which versions, but it is possible that this is the latest release since they are aimed at the future.

In any case, the release of this engine information is not entirely accidental when it comes to Starbreeze. They had the aforementioned troubles precisely because they were developing their own mover for the game Overkill’s The Walking Dead, which proved to be an expensive, complicated and ultimately a failed project. By using Unreal Engine they have the finished thing at their disposal so we know at least that the technical part should not be a stumbling block for Payday 3.
