Payday 2 is known for releasing some pretty unexpected, yet very much welcomed collaborations with other games such as Hotline Miami and Goat Simulator. Payday 2's newest update brings us Wang, our favorite katana wielding, demon-slaying hero from Flying Wild Hog's Shadow Warrior 2. This update features Wang's katana, as well as various other Shadow Warrior themed masks.
While Payday 2 got its fair share of SW2 content, the classic "Dallas" mask from Payday 2 is also making an appearance in SW2 as well as a couple of its weapons. As if robbing banks with your friends wasn't fun enough, now you can do it ninja style.
This surprising collaboration comes to us as part of an update that tackles a wide range of bugs/glitches, while also adding some very anticipated features such as AI being able to carry bags and a new "Toggle HUD" option.
In honor of this seemingly unexpected collaboration, both games will be going on sale together in a bundle. If you already own one of the games and wish to buy the other, steam is offering a 10% discount. Individually, Payday 2 is going for 75 percent off at $5.49 (CND), while Shadow Warrior 2 is going for 25 percent off at $32.99 (CND).
