“This DLC marks our third collaboration with another studio. The first was with Valve where we made the No Mercy heist for PAYDAY: The Heist and the GO Bank heist for PAYDAY 2. The second collaboration was together with Skybound’s The Walking Dead and the baseball bat Lucille which was released during the summer. This time, we’re collaborating with Dennaton Games, celebrated indie developers of Hotline Miami. A completely new two-day heist has been made by us, taking inspiration from the Hotline Miami universe. The addition of masks, submachine guns and melee weapons well known among Hotline Miami fans will surely entice our PAYDAY community to ask themselves ‘Do you like hurting other people?’”, says Bo Andersson Klint, CEO, Starbreeze AB.

The eighth DLC for PAYDAY 2, “Gage Assault Pack”, will launch on Steam on the 4th of September

Starbreeze AB, an independent creator, publisher and distributor of computer and video games has, through its subsidiary Starbreeze Studios AB, decided to proceed with a long-term collaboration with Skybound Interactive, committing to a game developer and publisher partnership for the IP The Walking Dead. The partners will collaborate on a AAA game to expand the franchise into the next decade.
This agreement is a first between Starbreeze Studios and Skybound Interactive where Starbreeze Studios will focus on development and publishing of the game OVERKILL’s The Walking Dead, also announced today.
The collaboration is based on standard market terms where Starbreeze as publisher has sufficient long-term rights to develop and commercialize one or more games based on The Walking Dead universe against customary royalties to Skybound. The likely impact on profits for Starbreeze will depend on how the future games will be received by the players in 2016 and onwards, and can thus not be projected today.
“For Starbreeze Studios this is a major strategic move, taking on an independent brand and treating it as our own. We have great experience from the PAYDAY series that can be utilized in bringing The Walking Dead to first-person shooter gamers everywhere.” says Bo Andersson Klint, CEO, Starbreeze AB. He continues, “The Walking Dead TV series is the #1 TV show in over 50 countries with millions of viewers all around the world, and The Walking Dead comic is one of the bestselling comics ever. OVERKILL’s The Walking Dead will be our biggest endeavor to date and marks a new era for our company. This is a long-term commitment, as with all our franchises. Teaming up with Robert Kirkman on creating this game and involving our community in the process will show the strength of independents working together.”
Dan Murray, President, Skybound Interactive, states, “I’ve been a fan of Starbreeze for many years.  Recent titles such as Brothers – A Tale of Two Sons and PAYDAY 2 showcase an incredible range of talent. Starbreeze consistently demonstrates their commitment toward delivering to their fans. The way they communicate with their community in the PAYDAY franchise aligns perfectly with our goals at Skybound.  We look forward to creating an innovative multiplayer experience in the world of The Walking Dead alongside the OVERKILL crew.”
“With this unique collaboration Starbreeze takes a great leap towards becoming a global leader in the new digital world. For the first time ever, Starbreeze Studios, one of Europe’s oldest independent developers, is both developer and publisher of a game. It has been one of the board&#8217;s long-term goals to take control of the business. Thanks to our success with the PAYDAY franchise along with our partnership with Skybound Interactive we are now able to cut out the middleman and have a direct relationship with our community, focusing on making the best game we possibly can together.” says Michael Hjorth, Chairman of the Board of Starbreeze AB. He adds, “We are convinced that the time is right for an aggressive strategy. Going forward, the board and management will actively work to strengthen our portfolio and technology platform even further. Our sales pulses work, we have the largest player community group on Steam and we have access to a strong and well known IP. Moreover, we now have the most important elements in place; a great team, a proven business model and the capital to make it all happen. Our journey has just begun.
To commemorate the collaboration between the companies, an exclusive weapon, the “Lucille” baseball bat from The Walking Dead, will be offered to the PAYDAY 2 community for free to be used in-game in PAYDAY 2.
OVERKILL’s The Walking Dead is scheduled to be released in 2016 and will be continuously supported with both free updates and paid downloadable content.

Brothers – A Tale of Two Sons Wins Swedish Game of the Year at the Dataspelsgalan Awards Show

Starbreeze Entertainment and The Gang are proud to announce that Out of Sight, a unique and spine-chilling narrative adventure, is available now on Steam, Epic Games Store, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and will be coming to Nintendo Switch this June. Guide Sophie and her teddy bear through a haunted mansion where sight is lost but hope is not. Get for your <a href="https://playoutofsight.com/">platform of choice here</a>!
For the bravehearted in virtual reality, Out of Sight VR developed by Flat2VR is also launching today on Steam VR, with Meta Quest and PlayStation VR2 versions coming soon.
In Out of Sight, players take on the role of Sophie, a young girl with blindness navigating a haunted mansion with the help of her beloved teddy bear. Having regained sight through Teddy, Sophie’s survival means relying on instinct, sound, and Teddy’s guidance to uncover the secrets lurking in the dark. 
Presented in a unique second-person perspective, players will guide both Sophie and Teddy through an unsettling world full of mystery, illusion, and danger. Do you have what it takes to help Sophie escape?
“What started as a student project has grown into something far bigger than we ever imagined,” offers Anna Erlandsson, Media and Community Lead at The Gang. “We’re incredibly proud to share Out of Sight with the world &#8211; a deeply personal, eerie, and emotionally resonant game that invites players to see things differently. Watching Sophie and Teddy’s story come to life has been a joy, and we can’t wait for players to experience it for themselves.”
Indeed, the origins of Out of Sight trace back to a final exam project, developed by a small team of students at Sweden’s Futuregames academy. What began as a short prototype &#8211; born out of a desire to explore bold, unconventional storytelling &#8211; lingered in the minds of those who played it. Over time, the idea grew into a full-fledged game, driven by a deep belief in the power of perspective and innovation in game design.
“I still remember the first time I saw the prototype &#8211; it was short, raw, and absolutely unforgettable,” adds André Persson, CMO at Starbreeze. “We fell in love with the team’s creative vision and the emotional impact of their second-person concept. Out of Sight is the kind of project that reminds us why we love games: it’s inventive, personal, and made with heart. We knew we had to help bring it to life.”
In Out of Sight you’ll encounter: 
<ul>
<li style="font-weight: 400">A Unique Perspective: Experience horror from a second-person point of view as you see through Teddy’s eyes and guide Sophie through the unknown.</li>
<li style="font-weight: 400">Without Sight, but Not Without Hope: Solve puzzles and overcome terrifying obstacles using only sound, feel, and instinct.</li>
<li style="font-weight: 400">A Mansion of Secrets: Piece together the chilling story buried within the mansion’s walls. Unravel its tragic past and uncover the events that turned it into a place of nightmares.</li>
<li style="font-weight: 400">Psychological Discomfort: Not all is as it seems. The line between reality and illusion is razor-thin, and your senses may betray you.</li>
