In a true cooperation over industry barriers; the game studios, movie makers and games publishers have pulled off an entertainment job rarely seen before. Get ready for a true cross media production.

Director Demian Lichtenstein, of 3000 Miles to Graceland commented, “The PAYDAY web series has been a solid and very close collaboration between all parties involved. I have never experienced such a high level of commitment to excellence from PAYDAY creators, Bo and Ulf Andersson, to the rock-solid input of game director David Goldfarb, and the combined efforts of the powerhouse global teams at 505 Games, Starbreeze, Overkill, Solaris, Equilibrium and Lightstone. Simply said, this is the best experience of my career.”
