The iconic rapper, ICE-T, joins the heist as a NPC in Payday 3, as revealed in the new gamescom 2023 trailer.
During gamescom’s Opening Night Live showcase, the developers behind Payday 3 revealed a brand new trailer to reveal a new character played by none other than ICE-T:
ICE-T is one of the most outspoken and multifaceted artists in the world. In the PAYDAY 3 universe, ICE-T plays the character Mac, a quest-giver who provides new missions to players.
In the “99 Boxes” heist, players can team up for four-player co-operative gameplay to infiltrate a highly secured container storage area. True to the core experience of the PAYDAY franchise, the “99 Boxes” heist in PAYDAY 3 can be approached in two ways: by sneaking into the warehouse avoiding guards, cameras, and workers with a stealth approach or go by going loud, guns blazing, which usually ends up in explosive shootouts with the police and SWAT teams calling in helicopter support. Whichever way players go, the goal is to team up and come out with the ultimate PAYDAY.
PAYDAY 3 will have a large presence at gamescom 2023 with the “99 Boxes” heist playable in the PLAION business booth (Hall 4.2 Booth B041-D050) and the PLAION consumer booth (Hall 9.1 Booth B010-C019). Aspiring heisters are welcome to join the gang for another round of chaos and crime.
Payday 3 hits PlayStation 5, Xbox Series S|X, and PCs on September 21, 2023.
