14 DAY TRIAL // We reported a few days ago about the next content packs developers Overkill plans to release for its Payday 2 smash hit: The Bomb Heists and Dragan Character Pack.
However, except for unveiling some details on what these packs will contain, Overkill did not confirm an exact release date, but they said they would be available very soon.
Well, it looks like both DLCs have been released on Steam, so those who already own the base game will be able to purchase them. The new expansion packs have been released as Update 52 for Payday 2.
Even if you haven't purchased the new DLCs you should still get an update that fixes some issues that should improve your overall gameplay experience.
The update size is about 2.1GB, but that should include the two DLCs as well. The list of bug fixes included in Update 52 mentions the following:
- Fixed an issue with the character pose in the main menu while wielding a sniper rifle; - Fixed an issue with the Gunslinger skill; it will now display its values properly as 15 damage instead of 50%; - Updated the Credits section with Lion Game Lion among others.
The DLCs bring new weapons, masks, heists and achievements
The Bomb Heists DLC costs €6.99 on Steam and contains the following: the Butcher (new contact), Pre-planning feature for heists, the Bomb: Forest heist, the Bomb: Dockyard heist, LEO pistol (a new secondary pistol), a new song (Searchlights), 4 new masks (The Butcher from Hell, Lady Butcher, The Doctor and Tech Lion), 4 new patterns, 4 new materials and 11 new achievements.
Dragan Character Pack is available on Steam for €4.99 and includes Dragan, a new character, the Infiltrator perk deck, The Lion's Roar primary assault rifle, Dragan's Cleaver melee weapon, Dragan's mask and Dragan Begins.
Those who use Hoxhud should also download the latest version after getting the latest Payday content, otherwise it will not work with the new DLCs.
