Payday 3 is still a long way off from being published though, as Starbreeze confirmed in 2019 that it was aiming for a 2022/23 release date. Payday 2 developer Starbreeze has announced a co-publishing agreement with Koch Media for upcoming sequel Payday 3, securing 50 million in funding.

Overkill's The Walking Dead video game didn't help the studio much either, as that poorly-received co-op shooter ran into difficulties of its own after release. By the last quarter of 2020, Starbreeze had finished paying off its creditors and had reduced its losses. Its offices were also raided by the Swedish police in December that year on suspicion of insider trading. In late 2018, Starbreeze went into administration for almost a year. We are excited to announce this exclusive long-term PAYDAY 3 co-publishing deal with Koch Media who shares our passion for the PAYDAY franchise and the Games as a service. After a brief soiree with almost going bankrupt, Starbreeze is back alongside Koch Media to publish Payday 3. "This entails risk that the company will not have sufficient secured funds to guarantee continued operations for the next 12 months." Payday 3 gets 2023 release with new publishing deal. "Without additional financing, liquidity injections from divestitures or distribution agreements for Payday 3, the company could experience a liquidity shortfall in the fourth quarter of 2021," the company wrote in the Risks and uncertainties section of its report. CEO Tobias Sjögren confirmed at the time that. That doesn't mean that Starbreeze is out of danger just yet, as the company needs to find a publisher for Payday 3 and additional funding if it wants to avoid a repeat of its dismal 2018-2019 period. ICYMI, Payday 3 is set to release in 2023 (opens in new tab) after developer Starbreeze secured a publishing deal with Koch Media earlier this year.
