SpeedRunners and Payday 2 swap characters

Four characters jump between games in Payday 2 promotion.
Mike Holmes 22 March 2015

Anyone who owns both SpeedRunners and Payday 2 on PC will now have access to two new pieces of DLC. The content brings four characters from each game, and makes them available for the other.

"SpeedRunners and Payday 2 have much in common as intense multiplayer games," said Starbreeze global brand director Almir Listo. "For the first time ever, our Payday characters also make the jump to another game. Making this happen was a no-brainer and a perfect fit!"

SpeedRunners dev Alex Nichiporchik added: "Seeing our characters as masks in Payday 2, and putting their iconic characters into SpeedRunners... Well, that's about as awesome as it gets."

There's even more stuff that has landed in Payday 2 as part of that game's Spring Break promotion, which has just finished and included loads of new content for the crime-centric co-op shooter.
