The 2013 co-op shooter Payday 2 (itself a sequel to Payday: The Heist) never made its way to the Wii U, but it will get a Switch release next month. The Switch version will get a timed-exclusive new character named Joy (a computer whiz who specializes in heists), and a new rumble feature. It will also include a handheld mode as well as both local and online multiplayer.
