The developer plans to expand the PAYDAY universe by entering into an agreement with Stockholm Syndrome.
Game developer and publisher Starbreeze Studios has published a statement announcing their plans to expand the universe of the PAYDAY franchise by creating either a TV or a movie adaptation of their popular co-op first-person shooter.
According to the announcement, the developer has partnered up with Stockholm Syndrome, giving the Los Angeles-based production company the exclusive right to represent PAYDAY and allowing its writers and directors to work on the IP. The team added that the partnership's goal is to develop a PAYDAY story for TV or film and find a partner to distribute it worldwide.
"We've had the opportunity to work with a lot of different IPs over the years, and PAYDAY has always been on our radar," Founder of Stockholm Syndrome Peter Settman says. "It has a cinematic quality and narrative that lends itself to a fantastic live-action adaptation."
