by OVERKILL_Adam

Hey Heisters,We have an update on pricing across PAYDAY The Heist, PAYDAY 2, and PAYDAY 3.Starting on April 14th on Steam, with other PC and console platforms to follow, we are introducing a new global pricing structure designed to make PAYDAY more accessible, more consistent, and easier to understand for players around the world.A more accessible and globally fair PAYDAYAs part of this update, we have adjusted regional pricing to better reflect local currencies and how prices differ across regions.

While that made sense at the time, it has made the catalogue harder to navigate than it should be.With this u...
