Starbreeze recently handed Payday 2 off to a new studio, Sidetrack Games, so it can focus its efforts on salvaging the mess that is Payday 3. Whether Payday 3 can be saved is a wide open question, but as a new trailer for an entirely different game makes painfully clear, it sure doesn't look good right now.
The trailer in question is for update 18 of Crime Boss: Rockay City, and we might as well get this out of the way first: Yes, Crime Boss: Rockay City has had 18 updates since it launched in June 2024, yes it's still running, and yes, people are still playing it—not many people, no, but some. (More on this later.)
