<p>Overkill Software and 505 Games have announced an Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 release for<em> PayDay 2</em>, the sequel to <em>PayDay: The Heist</em>. Previously a digital exclusive, <em>PayDay 2</em> will now see a global retail release on both major consoles and the PC via Steam.</p>
<p>“We have a bit of a problem here at Overkill – there are just too many great ideas and none that we were really happy to throw out &#8211; so <em>PAYDAY 2</em> has become just too big to reserve release on Xbox Live and PlayStation Network alone,&#8221; said Game Director David Goldfarb.</p>
<p>“It’s an incredible position to be in, having a game that just keeps growing and getting better all the time,” added Head of Global Brand at 505 Games, Tim Woodley.</p>
<p><em>PayDay 2</em> doesn&#8217;t have a set release date yet, but it is supposed to come out, at some point, in August.</p>
