PAYDAY 2™ is ready for heisting on the go! Starbreeze Studios and OVERKILL – a Starbreeze Studio announced the game is available on the Nintendo Switch™ system in North and South America, Europe and Australia.
With over 50 heists, more than 150 weapons and plenty of heisters to choose from, PAYDAY 2 for Nintendo Switch is the PAYDAY 2 experience players know and love. There are all-new features for the Switch version, including rumble support and full touchscreen main menu support, that make navigation easy and intuitive.
To celebrate the launch of PAYDAY 2 on the Nintendo Switch, OVERKILL is also releasing a brand-new heister: Joy. She’s a Japanese computer whiz living in the United States and comes with her own hacker perks and weapons. Most importantly, she has her own custom LED light-based mask that changes her appearance on the go. PAYDAY 2 on the Nintendo Switch also adds a new local multiplayer mode to CRIME.NET – called CRIME.NET Local Play – that allows players to set up a local game and invite friends to heist together on the same local network.
