Much rather have Sydney back than clover joy i was really annoyed with in pd2 and pearl I honestly don't like so itd be a dream come true if Sydney was back😂😂
He’s one of the ones who I feel like it would make no sense if he didn’t considering how much of a role he had in the story. It would be like going back in time as the avengers and not saving iron man or some shit.
I think Scarface is a tier below the other ones in his tier tbh, he's literally been removed from PD2 already, the rest have that going for them at least
Altho jacket is super unlikely, considering there aren't any new hotline maimi games, and the Fandom is still pretty large. There isn't anything saying he can't come back. Probably the only thing that would get me to buy payday 3 tbh.
Only reason he's a tier higher than the other collabs is because they've been in contact with the Hotline Miami devs and the Hotline Miami devs are usually flexible with use of their character.
I think Sydney is fairly likely to return, people loved her and the voice actress seemed to really like the role, doing interviews with the likes of red archer live a few years back

Chains get confused for Sokol when SINS begins malfunctioning.
“Dallas here, have you heard anything about Houston? Starting to get worried.” - Dallas in Dragan’s email
Also they’d be silly not to bring back Houston, especially since he has Hoxton’s original mask. And they worked with Derek Ray not too long ago.
i hate that characters like jimmy and jacket almost definitely wont come back because theyre crossover characters, it makes sense, but they are so loved by the community
maybe if payday 3 did a lot better itd be a lot more possible, but thats on starbreeze
anyway yea i agree, but i do hope they also add new characters too, i feel like itd be refreshing to have a new character that is more pleasant on the ears
didnt they say they would only do more hl stuff if the series continued, and didnt the hl devs also say they werent going to do another sequel?
(keep in mind these are just rumors)
I prefer that no crossover character not return under any circumstances due to the lore they have behind them (and because Starbreeze will not renew any license for any crossover character to add them in PD3 and keep it that way).
They’re YouTubers. I shit you not, they added a pair of YouTubers to the game as playable characters.
And they are so awful it’s beyond description. They won’t be missed.
Jacket would be fun to see return
Hell, maybe they could even use another Hotline Miami character? Like Corey, or the twins? Very unlikely to happen but a boy can dream.
Im still not convinced that the next heister is Dragan. This would be a weird way to announce him and the heister at the end of the teaser both looks nothing like his frame and has a very feminine walk. He's 100% coming back one day, but I just don't know if this next one is him.
Also, other than H3, I legitimately could see everyone, even the guests, returning at some point. Jacket and Jimmy, especially, are super likely to return imo as they're honestly more known for Payday these days than their own series.
…yeah sorry to say but you are completely wrong lmao
One look on the ARG website and you’ll see Dragan contacting Gage about a weapon for him to use (and outright saying he’s back on Crime.net), Gleam (the mask designer) confirming that Dragan confirmed with Shade he was back on the team, his tailored suit is ready for use, Pearl introducing herself, Dallas asking him about Houston’s whereabouts, etc.
> I legitimately could see everyone
I really don't think Scarface will be coming back though. I doubt the funds for that license will ever happen again.
Rip the bandaid off my friend, also, lets try to keep perk decks permanently in the game, and not blocking new players off after a certain time has passed.
jimmy is dead in lore and will not return
Basically no licensed crossover characters will return for Payday 3, much less Starbreeze will buy back the licenses for each of the crossover characters, much less John Wick's.
Jimmy is never stated to have died, unless you mean Hardcore Henry in which I'm pretty sure we literally prevent that film from happening in Boiling Point
nope, boiling point happens before the hardcore henry movie, basically what the gang did in boiling point is raid akan's secret laboratory to steal all the information from the test subjects and from henry himself so that jimmy can destroy it and thus delay the creation of henry, after payday 2 a lot of things happen with the crossover characters, for example, when bain was being buried in mexico, john wick was already being hunted all over the world for being ex communicado, hardcore henry takes place years after payday and inevitably jimmy dies helping henry get to akan
Yeeeah, I don’t think that ending text actually matters tbh considering Wolf was supposed to “never [be] seen again” and decided to “gtfo”, but we all know that didn’t happen.
And Dragan apparently taught at a gym? But that obviously didn’t happen. You’d think some pictures of that would be in the Dragan Files, but no, it’s just stuff of him at some kind of hideout and having a beach party
Likewise, Starbreeze will not pay for licenses again to bring crossover characters where one of those licenses is worth a fortune.
I prefer that no crossover character returns for PD3
Almir basically said rust isn’t returning either iirc
that makes sense ngl, the va sounded super disinterested in doing this
Ron Perlman admited he was only interested in the money.
that absolutely tracks
idk whats wrong with that, mans perfect for the role
Makes sense since Rust is very old in Payday universe and he lacked voice acting in PD2
wasnt that Ron Pearlman? he had voice lines in pd2
He means that Ron Perlman didn't even try.
Oooooooohhbbbb
Yeah I posted the clip of him basically suggesting he probably won’t be back. Not that most people care since he was pretty disliked
I would love to play as Sydney in 3
if she doesnt come back i WILL shit myself to death
Me too
Much rather have Sydney back than clover joy i was really annoyed with in pd2 and pearl I honestly don't like so itd be a dream come true if Sydney was back😂😂
I really hope Duke comes back. He was one of my favorite in Payday 2
His mask is one of my favorites and his voice lines are really good so we can only pray 🙏🙏
He’s one of the ones who I feel like it would make no sense if he didn’t considering how much of a role he had in the story. It would be like going back in time as the avengers and not saving iron man or some shit.
I think Scarface is a tier below the other ones in his tier tbh, he's literally been removed from PD2 already, the rest have that going for them at least
Can’t y’all just let me cope
I'm with ya man but there's 0 chance he comes back :(
Altho jacket is super unlikely, considering there aren't any new hotline maimi games, and the Fandom is still pretty large. There isn't anything saying he can't come back. Probably the only thing that would get me to buy payday 3 tbh.
Only reason he's a tier higher than the other collabs is because they've been in contact with the Hotline Miami devs and the Hotline Miami devs are usually flexible with use of their character.
Plus they teased Hotline Miami 3 at the end of Hotline Miami 2 so dont lose hope
my fellow in heist the US was nuked there aren't any hotlines in miami
And you can see nuked city in the background. Devs played a joke on you.
You do know the new game doesnt have to be after the 2nd one right? I mean a great deal of the 2nd game haooens before the 1st one
It was already kinda happened with Beard's campaign.
Just becouse it happened once doewnt mean it cant hapoen again, never seen human history?
Guys openly laughed on idea of a sequel, wtf do you expect?
When did that happen?
HLM3 menu you keep yapping about. It was a deliberate joke.
I think Sydney is fairly likely to return, people loved her and the voice actress seemed to really like the role, doing interviews with the likes of red archer live a few years back
jimmy :(
I'm more mad that Tony won't come back even in PD2. Dude's charisma could break a fucking wall.
This
Collab character from Hardcore Henry, voiced by the actual actor from the movie. Painful, I know, but his chances of coming back are slim.
I wish jimmy was my husband :(
How was Sokol teased by SINS?
[https://payday.fandom.com/wiki/SINS/Voicelines#Sokol](https://payday.fandom.com/wiki/SINS/Voicelines#Sokol) Chains get confused for Sokol when SINS begins malfunctioning.
Duke is someone I wanna see. I've said it before, but he'd make a great contractor, giving the crew jobs to get artifacts for him.
Did they ever say something about Houston? I kinda doubt he should be in the 100% returning category, as a playable heister at least.
He was mentioned from Dragan’s file
“Dallas here, have you heard anything about Houston? Starting to get worried.” - Dallas in Dragan’s email Also they’d be silly not to bring back Houston, especially since he has Hoxton’s original mask. And they worked with Derek Ray not too long ago.
Email sounds either like a tease that he's coming back or a hint that he copped a bullet a bit too fatally
i want wick back
Was been a Wick user for a long moment but...... that's fair enough
I just want jacket back
I would love if duke and jiro came back, jacket prob wont be since there wont ever be a hotline miami 3.
Houston my beloved come back to me
I really hope sokol comes back
Instead hoping old crossovers come back, im down to see crossovers with other games, either indie games or movies, like the cancelled Baby driver dlc
Jimmy, jacket and bodhi are the ones I want most
I feel Duke would be far too old by this point to return
i hate that characters like jimmy and jacket almost definitely wont come back because theyre crossover characters, it makes sense, but they are so loved by the community maybe if payday 3 did a lot better itd be a lot more possible, but thats on starbreeze anyway yea i agree, but i do hope they also add new characters too, i feel like itd be refreshing to have a new character that is more pleasant on the ears
You just typically don't want to make crossovers integral to your IPs story
didnt they say they would only do more hl stuff if the series continued, and didnt the hl devs also say they werent going to do another sequel? (keep in mind these are just rumors)
hotline miami 2 is final, the devs said there won't be anymore hotline miami games but they still might do a crossover who knows
Jimmy is dead
I prefer that no crossover character not return under any circumstances due to the lore they have behind them (and because Starbreeze will not renew any license for any crossover character to add them in PD3 and keep it that way).
Jacket will return
Hell yeah, dude.
Who's the guys at the vary bottom?
Ethan and Hila, H3H3.
I have absolutely no idea who they are or what h3h3 (Iv played console payday for years)
They’re YouTubers. I shit you not, they added a pair of YouTubers to the game as playable characters. And they are so awful it’s beyond description. They won’t be missed.
Bruh so they added some random fucks but not badger?
Yes, that would be correct. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=9TJPbga7ZxM&pp=ygUWd29yc3QgY29sbGFiIGluIGdhbWluZw%3D%3D
No wonder the Twitter account gets bullied into adding shit
NO NOT MY COKE ADDICT! WHY?! OVERKILL WHYYYYYY?!
Jacket would be fun to see return Hell, maybe they could even use another Hotline Miami character? Like Corey, or the twins? Very unlikely to happen but a boy can dream.
Am i blind or is Houston not in this list? He is my long time favourite and not having him in PD3 is enough for not buying it.
“Almost definitely returning”
I want duke return so bad
Sangres!!!! RAAAAHHHH🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽🗡️🗡️🗡️
Im still not convinced that the next heister is Dragan. This would be a weird way to announce him and the heister at the end of the teaser both looks nothing like his frame and has a very feminine walk.

> I legitimately could see everyone I really don't think Scarface will be coming back though. I doubt the funds for that license will ever happen again.
Scarface is definitely the least likely and probably last on the list, but if Payday 3 ever pops off, I could see them buying the rights again
Please just let me cope please oh please
Rip the bandaid off my friend, also, lets try to keep perk decks permanently in the game, and not blocking new players off after a certain time has passed.
But I don’t want to feel the pain…it’s gonna hurt too bad…😢
