The PAYDAY crew is back in the spotlight with Party Powder, the latest paid heist for PAYDAY 3, out now on PC and consoles for £3.99. Launched alongside the much-anticipated Armour 2.0 system, this update shakes up the game with customisation, chaos, and criminal ambition in equal measure.
Watch the gameplay trailer here:
Mob wars, meth labs, and mayhem
Set in a crumbling New York mob warehouse, Party Powder drops players into the middle of a turf war. The Palatucci crime family is hijacking a massive drug shipment, and triad boss Shayu has one message: get in there and flip the script. Whether you choose stealth or go in loud, this open-ended heist offers plenty of room for strategy or total carnage.
Feeling bold? Take things a step further by firing up the lab and cooking your own meth. It’s risky, but the payout is huge. Just don’t breathe too deeply.
Armour 2.0 and other major additions
Alongside the new heist comes Armour 2.0, a complete rework of the game’s armour system. This new feature allows players to customise their loadout with modular armour chunks tailored to their playstyle, whether you prefer the fast-and-light approach from PAYDAY 2 or the heavier resistance of PAYDAY 3, Armour 2.0 has you covered.
What’s new in this Party Powder update:
Party Powder Heist (Paid DLC) – A chaotic warehouse job that blends strategy and street warfare
Armour 2.0 – Mix-and-match armour for flexible builds and deeper tactical options
New Weapon: The Justicar – A reimagined fan-favourite returning from PAYDAY 2

Twitch Drops – Apocalypse-themed mask, stickers, charm and more
