Payday: The Heist was free on Steam for 24 hours in October 2014. This DLC included the No Mercy heist as well as the Infected mask set for players with Left 4 Dead installed on their computers. On 25 July, the No Mercy Hospital DLC was released, establishing a link between Left 4 Dead and Payday (although this has been stated to be non-canon). Also included were two new heists, Counterfeit and Undercover. The new content included a new Technician skill tree that gave the players access to the AK, the GL40 and the Stryk pistol as well as adding in a sentry gun. It was released in 2012 on 1 August on the European PlayStation Store and on 7 August for the North American PlayStation Store and PC.

Overkill Software released a few DLC packs the first one is Wolf Pack, which includes a Nixon mask, new equipment, skills, characters, and heists. A post-game message congratulates the group, telling them that they are "set for life", but recommends more heists, including robbing drug junkies in an abandoned apartment complex and ambushing a prisoner transport in heavy rain weather, simply for the enjoyment of the players. Their first heist took place at the First World Bank, where they entered a vault by using thermite hidden on the inside of a photocopier and stole a large amount of money. The game focuses on four robbers (Dallas, Hoxton, Chains, and Wolf) who team up. An example of this is the location of the bank manager in First World Bank. While playing the levels, players will notice a lot of variation in a single level, as there are often a large number of random events programmed in.

Should any player get arrested (after taking enough damage and not being "revived" in time) during the heist, one of their teammates may release a hostage, allowing a trade to take place which allows a single player to be released. Killing civilians is punished, instead players may take a limited number as hostages. The game plays from the first person perspective, but offers a few twists on the standard FPS formula.

In Payday: The Heist, players use a variety of firearms to complete objectives (usually centered around stealing a certain object, person, or a particular amount of money).
