Payday 3 developers have announced server maintenance ahead of the weekend, with multiple periods scheduled across different time zones. The aim is to improve server and matchmaking stability, addressing the connectivity and networking issues that have plagued the game since its launch. The maintenance will take place between 8am and 11am CEST on both Tuesday and Friday.
The recent launch of Payday 3 was met with criticism and poor performance, leading to a decrease in player counts. The CEO of Starbreeze, the developers of Payday, apologized for the rocky launch and promised to fix the issues as soon as possible. Despite this, the game has only reached a peak of 35 thousand concurrent players in the last 24 hours, compared to Payday 2’s peak of 39 thousand concurrent players.
The scheduled maintenance is an attempt to redeem the game’s unimpressive launch, but it remains uncertain if it will be successful. However, there have been redemption stories in gaming before, so there is still hope for Payday 3.

| CEST | 8am – 11am Tuesday and Friday |
| CST | 2pm, 5pm |
| BST | 7am, 10am |
