All Payday 3 special editions, explained

The Payday 3 special editions give you all manner of bonuses, including 72-hour early access to the game. While the base game is a relatively inexpensive $40, there are upgrades that should be considered before purchasing the title. Some of those upgrades include new, exclusive masks for your character. Here’s everything to know about the Payday 3 special editions, including a collector’s edition.

What are the Payday 3 special editions?

There are three alternate Payday 3 special editions that you can buy, including Silver and Gold.

The Silver Edition ($69.99) comes with the following:

• The base game
• Dark Sterling Mask
• The ability to play the game three days early
• The six-month season pass, which includes two heists, tailor packs, and weapon packs

The Gold Edition ($89.99) includes:

• The base game
• Dark Sterling Mask
• Golden State Gloves
• Skull of Liberty Mask
• 72 hours of early access
• The one-year season pass, which has four heists, tailor packs, and weapon packs

If you preorder any copy of the game, you’ll also gain the Trifectal Loot Bag, which has the Venomous Verdigris mask, Cotton Stripes gloves, and the posh Obsidian Glitz suit.

What’s in the Payday 3 collector’s edition?

If you want to take your heists in Payday 3 to the next level, the collector’s edition includes a bunch of physical and digital goodies. It includes the following:

• The base game
• The one-year season pass
• Membership to The Collector’s Club, a special community that gives you access to online panels with the developers of the game and “other exclusive opportunities,” according to Best Buy Canada.
• A Collector’s Club membership letter
• The Collector’s Mask (in-game), which has a gold layout (even with gold teeth) and black gashes.
• The Collector’s Mask in real life with its own stand
• A custom deck of cards
• Stickers

Unfortunately, you won’t be able to get the game on PS4 and Xbox One, so if you get the Payday 3 collector’s edition, I hope you have friends on PS5, Xbox Series X, Xbox Series S, and PC to play it with. You’ll need to upgrade your system or play the game on a PC to play with your friends via crossplay.
