Deep Silver and Starbreeze have revealed via the game’s Steam store page that PAYDAY 3 will be using the Denuvo anti-tamper tech.
From what we know, PAYDAY 3 will be always-online and will not offer an offline mode. Even during single-player missions, the game will require an internet connection. Not only that, but it will also require Starbreeze’s Nebula. So, why will Deep Silver use Denuvo in an always-online game? Don’t know but it seems kind of pointless.
Deep Silver has used Denuvo in almost all of its latest games. So, in a way, we’re not really surprised by it. However, as we’ve already said, PAYDAY 3 is an always-online game so it makes no sense to implement Denuvo in it.
In PAYDAY 3, players will step out of retirement back into the life of crime in the shoes of the Payday Gang, the envy of their peers and the nightmare of law-enforcement wherever they go. Several years after the crew’s reign of terror over Washington DC has ended, they assemble once again to deal with the threat that roused them out of early retirement.
At launch, the game will be using Unreal Engine 4. However, Starbreeze plans to upgrade to Unreal Engine 5 after its launch.
Deep Silver will release PAYDAY 3 on September 21st. You can also find here its official PC system requirements. For what it’s worth, these PC requirements are quite low, which is a good thing. At the same time, the game also does not push any impressive graphics on screen, so these PC specs kind of make sense.
Stay tuned for more!

Still so sad game as great as Anthem wasn’t cracked. It is a blow to the world.
Ghost Recon Breakpoint, released with no squad NPC’s and a plethora of breaking bugs.
Half of the games from the list are ALWAYS online/”mmo’s” 😉
Boi nothing of value is lost.
Starbeeze sponsors mental illness.
“Valkyrie Jam”
That sounds like the worst kind of “jam” you’d wanna get into it. Likely jammed between two tr**ny freaks, helpless and subdued. 🤢 🤮
You ever hear anyone mention a valkyrie jam, run. Run for your life.
idk sometimes with amounts of hate here i can see actual real mental illness
“So, why will Deep Silver use Denuvo in an always-online game? Don’t know but it seems kind of pointless.”
Well I think the same but then i look at all Steam games which have online cracked !
Like Dying Light which have online crack and players can play co-op and join game server with pirates version….
From what we know, PAYDAY 3 will be always-online and will not offer an
offline mode. Even during single-player missions, the game will require
an internet connection.
Management at Deep Silver live in their own special little world. The
same management that made the stupid decision to make Metro Exodus a 1
year timed exclusive on EGS a couple of weeks before release and pulled
it from Steam for any further sales during that time which set off a review bombing
campaign because it made so many gamers p*ssed off at them
Heavens knows what happened at that “jam”.
A whole lot of fudge packing I’m sure.
Deep Silver, so no wonder.
its a repetitive mp game, lmao
“gender minorities”
lmao therea re 2 genders and there are less men in america than women.
How low starbreze has fallen.
I was born with a pp, but I feel very feminine on Tuesday nights. I wish you could see me in my panties and bra. I look very lovely.
I wish that I could un-see the image that comment put in my brain.
You’ll start to like it if you think about it too much. It’s kind of like that funky smell when you eat a woman’s a*s, you’re not sure whether you like it or grossed out, but eventually, you’ll get turned on by it bro.
i identified as a woman when i read this comment, i am reporting you for sexual harassment.
Thanks, I would have sexually assaulted you instead if I could.
>Gender minorities
I don’t know about you guys, but I’m getting real tired of this newspeak BS.
The idea of only two genders existing was debunked many years ago by scientists.
Unhealthy mental illness is spreading into every industry.
2 Genders & 2 Se(x)es = MALE + FEMALE!
It is going to be crap for sure not just because of DRM in general.
Recently purchased Sniper Elite 5 through russian 1$ market and the game is so stupid 🤦🤦 Rebellion has done poor job
Crappy graphics,dumb AI, poor animations (even previous Sniper Elite series had good animations).
My point is what is the point of using Denuvo in a half baked game?
This site’s “moderation”, is really getting tiresome. Each time I come here, I am reminded why it takes me longer and longer to return after each visit.
Deep Silver : No mods, extra justification to ban you plus”coNteTt creAToRs” will buy it and lead their sheeple to do so as well, so fvck you consuuuumer give me monies.
Denuvo, always-online, Unreal Engine 5 (-.-).
Denuvo so they won´t crack it too fast, even tho it would be only single player with bots.
Always-online not as DRM, it´s as always implemented so players can buy from the ingame-shop. Predatory monetization won´t work if you´re playing offline.
Unreal Engine 5 because Epic is throwing their money at Devs to use it.
Let me wrong, I don´t care. But I won´t buy that AIDS package.
1# No offline mode
2# Always-online bs = If the servers go down you can’t play the game in any way.
3# Denuvo DRM = Stuttering and framedrops.
4# Conformed post-launch microtransaction hell.
5# No mod support which kept Payday 2 alive.
6# Unreal Engine 4 game.
How many red flags do you guys need to stop pre-ordering or buying this crap ?
I was very exited for this game since I have over 300+ hours in Payday 2 and it is a very good game for some co-op fun but every news about Payday 3 is just depressing.
Why does this online only game even needs Denuvo?!
I mean, its their money to waste but yeah.. why.
its a damm online game, nobody will pirate it anyway
Now game looks and run like sh*t. So Denuvo and always online doesn’t matter to me because I won’t buy that sh*t anyway.
I’ll wait for a Fitgirl repack then. They can have my money once they remove that sh*t
I was tentatively interested in the game. Certainly not anymore
