    Payday 3 Servers Finally Back Online After Launch Day Disaster

    After yesterday’s problematic launch day, Payday 3 servers are finally getting back on track.

    When Payday 3 launched yesterday, the official Twitter account of the game posted a notice revealing it was experiencing slow matchmaking. This was posted four hours after the game launched in full. It seems there was a massive influx of new players with millions more from Xbox Game Pass.

    Heisters, we’re currently experiencing slow matchmaking. We’re investigating and working on a solution.

    The server issues continued for over six hours after the first post on Twitter. During the seventh hour after the problems appeared, the developers finally posted another post to give an update. They revealed that server-side fixes got deployed, but there are still issues with the matchmaking, which was unfortunate.

    We realise that the matchmaking issues are frustrating, they are for us as well. We're still here and still working on getting you all back into the game, stay tuned.

    Today, the matchmaking services are gradually getting back online. This just confirmed that the worst part of the instability issues might finally be over this time. There could be still some issues, but it will not be causing any major problems anymore.

    Heisters, sorry for having kept you waiting in the safe house. We are slowly but surely getting the services working for you all.

    Matchmaking services are gradually getting back online. Thank you for your patience and apologies for the wait. We salute you! 👊😎

    Since Payday 3 is one of the most anticipated titles for the fans of the series, these day one issues have gone down pretty badly for them. At least the developers did not leave them hanging after the problems popped up and now most of them are gone.
