The update also enables all players to toggle between Single- and Auto-fire modes with all full-auto weapons. Ten new achievements have also been added.
Overkill Software has previously revealed plans to release five Payday 2 DLC packs (http://www.computerandvideogames.com/424923/payday-2-dlc-5-packs-planned/). The Gage Weapon Pack #01 is the second DLC offering, after the add-on mission Armored Transport (http://www.overkillsoftware.com/armoredtransport/).
In our Payday 2 review (http://www.computerandvideogames.com/423957/payday-2-review-a-vast-improvement-over-the-original-if-youre-playing-with-friends/) we said: "With friends, it's one of the most intense, thrilling co-op multiplayer games we've played.
"The unpredictability of the randomisation can make even heists you've played a dozen times feel fresh, throwing new surprises at you. Making it past seemingly impossible odds with a fat bag of money slung over your shoulder is hugely rewarding."
