Although Payday 3 — is a team-based online game, it can also be played solo, using artificial intelligence bots as partners. However, since the game requires a constant connection to the server, online issues have prevented this option from being realized.

Starbreeze has been trying to improve the server connection and player matching system, but now the studio has released a statement saying that it will consider removing or reducing the requirement for a persistent network connection in the future.

It was confirmed back in July that Payday 3 would require an online connection to play through, even in single-player. The news was poorly received on social media, and the game’s reddit was filled with memes that it would be permanently shut down in the future.
