The Payday 3 game director, Miodrag Kovacevic, is stepping down from his role to take on a new position as a designer within the project. This change in leadership follows a tough first year for the game, which saw a rough launch and continued problems with keeping players engaged and fixing technical issues. Even with these challenges, Starbreeze Entertainment is still dedicated to making Payday 3 better as it moves into its second year.
