PAYDAY: Aces High at a glance

What is PAYDAY: Aces High?

You play one of The Aces, an elite crew of heisters with bleeding-edge tech and black-market weapons. Framed by business titan Warren Jupiter and thrown in jail, you hit him where it hurts: banks, museums and even his "untouchable" penthouse. Each Ace has a role:

• Ace of Hearts, the Mastermind: plans every angle and escape.
• Ace of Clubs, the Ghost: silent and gone before anyone notices.
• Ace of Diamonds, the Technician: the gadget expert.
• Ace of Spades, the Enforcer: the hammer when things go loud.

Is PAYDAY: Aces High co-op?

Yes. You can play solo or roll out with up to three partners online, and Steam lists cross-platform multiplayer. Plan the job, pick your tools and try to get out with the bags before the heat gets too much.

What weapons and gear are in PAYDAY: Aces High?

Assault rifles, SMGs, shotguns and pistols, plus gadgets including a grapple and sentry guns. You spend cash and rep from heists to unlock skills, gear and toys, and mix them into your own loadout.

Which VR headsets does PAYDAY: Aces High support?

On Steam, Fast Travel Games lists Steam Frame, Valve Index, OpenXR headsets, Quest via Link and Oculus Rift S. The official launch trailer also names Meta Quest. It's VR only, so you can't play it on a flat screen. Thinking about Valve's new headset? See our Steam Frame review roundup.
