Ginx:Sneak around the back or go in guns blazing? Grab the cash and make a quick getaway, or take hostages and loot the place dry? There’s a lot to consider when it comes to planning an elaborate heist, and Payday 2 offers the chance to team up with friends to see if you’d pull off the perfect crime. Aggressively expanding 2011’s underground hit Payday: The Heist, is this edgy sequel still criminally fun?
GB: "Of course, Payday 2 has had its fair share of ups and downs as well, in spite of the success that it has enjoyed. For starters, the disparity between the game’s PC and console versions is a major issue that plagued the game for years on end, thanks to the frustrating optimization issues across platforms brought about by the Diesel Engine, which the game was developed on."

Payday 2 launched 10 years ago today, and a constant stream of updates still makes it worth playing ahead of Payday 3.

Starting today, Payday 2 is free at Epic Games Store. The free game offer runs until June 15. Once you claim it, it's yours to keep.
