Payday 2 has 22 heisters for you to choose from. These characters range from the original Payday crew to new original characters as we༺ll as licensed characters from other properties. Each character comes with unique weapons, masks, and sometimes skills🦩 and perks.
However, not all characters are created equal. Some characters got a lot more lovﷺe and work put into them than the others, and some appear to just be lazy crossovers ꧃hoping to cash in on hot properties.
21 Ethan And Hila 🍸
Ethan and Hila are the duo behind the h3h3 YouTube channel. They were included as DLC characters for Payday 2, with all the proceeds of sales of the DLC ꧃going to them directly to help them in a lawsuit they were facing at the time.
The Payday 2 community seems to agree that the people behind h3h3 are the worst in-game characters. Their dialogue lines are particularly bad and sound wooden𝓡, and their masks are extremely boring. The h3h3 DLC is a nice gesture on behalf of Overkill, but the characters are not great to play.
20 John Wick
168澳洲幸运5开奖网:John Wick needs no introduction, but for anyone that isn't aware, he is a hitman that comes out of retirement💫 to take revenge on those that killed his dog in the film of the same name.
John Wick doesn't really fit into the world of Payday 2. In the film series, Wick was a hitman that begrudgingly came out of retirement, and it makes no sense that he'd turn to a life of robbing banks and other criminal activity besides assassination. John Wick's mask is extremely poor as it's not even a mask but rather just a pair of shades ꧂and it feels like little effort was put into his c꧒haracter.
19 Joy
Joy is a Japanese heister and was the final character released for Payday 2, adde😼d in 2018 as part of Operation Icebreake𒐪r.
Joy has a unique and 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:visually striking mask which is actually one of the best in the game, but her voice l🔯ines can be grating: they are loud, quite annoying, and often filled with forced cultural references, which get repetitive and cringe-inducing very quickly.
18 Sangres
The Mexican sicario, Sang๊res, was released on May 4, 2017, as part of the Sangres character pack celebrating Cinco de Mayo.
Sangres' mask is a beautiful and haunting skull similar to those worn during the Day of T💛he Dead, but Sangres himself, despite his dangerous past in cartels, does not feel particularly interesting compared to other characters.
17 Jimmy
Jimmy is the most obscure licensed character in Payday 2,🎃 coming from the film Hardcore Henry which was filmed in a first-person perspective.
Jimmy is a mad British scientist infamous for his love of cocaine. Jimmy clearly has very little knowledge or experience with mask-making and has voice lines that are as volatile as he is, wi✅th him making over-the-top threats out of nowhere.
16 Jiro
Jiro is from the game series Yakuza, and he is no stranger to a life full o🀅f crime and violence.
Jiro is particularly adept at using samurai swords and can even decapitate enemies, which is probably the most graphic way you can 🍃dispose of people in Payday 2. The majority of Jiro's voice lines are in Japanese, and it's extremely entertaining when guards are unphased hearing Japanese on their own communications.
15 Bonnie
Bonnie grew up in Glasgow in Scotland whဣilst there were many difficulties for the working class to get employment, which led to her life of crime.
She was instrumental in getting Hoxton out of prison and in tracking down his rat. Bonnie takes no nonsense and is 🐻direct with how she talks with the occasional quip, some relating to her Scottish heritage.
14 Dragan
Dragan is a Croatian heister and w♏orks for the brutal gunrunner The Bu🌊tcher.
What makes Dragan a fascinating character is the actor's story. Dragomir Mrsic is a Bosnian-born Swedish actor who has actually robbed a bank before his acting career. In 1990 he, alongside fellow actor Liam Norberg, robbed Gotabanken of around 930 million SEK worth of state bonds, making it thꦓe biggest heist in Swedish history.
13 Sokol
Sokol is a former Russian professional hockey player who playeᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚ𒀱ᩚᩚᩚd a grinder role, meaning he's experienced in getting right in people's faces.
In case his terrifying mask didn't make it clear, Sokol is a fearsome heister that is not to be trifled with. Sokol remains calm and cal🎀culated while pulling off a job and delivers some great voice lines detailing his experiences back in Russia, orꦰ stroking his ego.
12 Houston
Houston is the younger brother of Dallas🦄 and filled the place in the original Payday Gang that Hoxton left during his arre𝓀st.
At first glance, you could easily mistake Houston for Hoxton as he has Hoxton's mask from Payday: The Heist. Houston di❀d originally take the name Hoxton until the original was freed from prison, and it was then that he changed his nam🍨e to the more suitable Houston, but he kept the iconic mask that fans of the series love.
