Following the disastrous launch of Payday 3, Starbreeze Studios' CEO Tobias Sjögren is resigning from the company. Sjögren led the studio for three years, overseeing the development of Payday 3 and the ongoing live-service support of Payday 2, which remains one of the most active multiplayer games on Steam.
Payday 3 is now just over a year old and, to put it mildly, has had a rocky start. The botched launch saw major server issues making the game almost unplayable, the overbearing monetisation hacked off all the Payday 2 vets Starbreeze was hoping to transfer over, and the cherry on the cake was a patch deployment issue that meant the first update took weeks to arrive.
Miodrag “Mio” Kovačević will be stepping down as game director of Payday 3, according to an announcement from Starbreeze released earlier today on the official Payday X account.
Payday 3's Operation Medic Bag's second patch is now available.
Tobias Sjögren has been removed from his role as CEO of developer Starbreeze after the company's board concluded the studio «needs a different leadership» to execute its current business strategy. The announcement follows a disastrous launch for last year's Payday 3, which is still struggling to attract players in significant numbers.
Starbreeze CEO Tobias Sjögren has been shown the door, as the board of directors has decided that it is in need of «different leadership» to take the company forward. The move comes just six months after the catastrophic launch of struggling heist-shooter Payday 3.
Payday 3 developer Starbreeze is searching for a new CEO following the removal of Tobias Sjögren.
Starbreeze Studios has confirmed that Payday 3 is still not meeting expectations. The latest entry into the long-running co-op heist shooter franchise was released in September 2023, but Payday 3 quickly suffered a decline in player numbers thanks to a myriad of bugs and glitches found within the game.
