Payback 2 (also known with the subtitle The Battle Sandbox) is a Wide-Open Sandbox video game developed by British developer Apex Designs Entertainment Ltd., and released on October 4, 2012 for the iOS and on October 10, 2014 on Android devices. It is a follow-up to the 2001 game Payback (also a clone of the original GTA).It is similar in gameplay to the Grand Theft Auto series, where the player can freely explore cities, commit crimes and drive vehicles. The game's plot is explained in the "Story" mode, where the player completes missions given to an off-screen boss, and the "Campaign" mode, where the player competes with AI characters on various game modes.Not to be confused with PAYDAY 2 or Need for Speed Payback. | |

Payback 2 (Video Game) / int_1d91d828 | comment |
Deadly Game: "Capture The Swag" is a twisted take on the outdoor game Capture the Flag, except that the "flag" is a nondescript briefcase, which the player shall take from the opposing team to the player's team. | |

Bland-Name Product | |
Payback 2 (Video Game) / int_2b5ea43c | comment |
Bland-Name Product: The Mundaneo, a 90s-looking car, is based and named after the Ford Mondeo. The Fjord is a reference to Ford in general, despite being based on the Chrysler Neon. "Faux News", which can be seen on the RC Truck's livery, is a spoof of Fox News. The Pug, a hatchback based on the Peugeot 308, is basically a shortened form of Peugeot's name. Similarly, the Evo, a sedan clearly based on the Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution X, is a clipped form of "Evolution". | |

Payback 2 (Video Game) / int_3ec7c277 | comment |
Every Car Is a Pinto: All vehicles in the game explode when they get damaged enough. Oddly enough, vehicles burn up and explode when flipped or turned upside-down, and the only way of preventing it is to turn the vehicle back to the ground. | |

Payback 2 (Video Game) / int_59907e4f | comment |
Police Are Useless: The police's only goal is to arrest you, no matter the wanted level. In fact, they won't arrest AI in game modes featuring the police, and AI characters might even steal their cars, leaving a helpless cop behind. | |

Shout-Out | |
Payback 2 (Video Game) / int_c75df49a | comment |
Shout-Out: The Scooby is obviously, a reference to Scooby-Doo, but is also named after a popular nickname for Subaru cars. A campaign event, called "Scooby Snacks", is a reference to the snack from said franchise. The Tagline of Faux News seen on the RC Truck is "You can't handle the truth!". Said quote also pops up occasionally on the game's loading screens. The final chapter of Story Mode, "Born Slippy", is a reference to the song "Born Slippy .NUXX" by British band Underworld (Band). After blowing up the rival gang's garage in "Born Slippy", the boss quotes "I love the smell of burning napalm in the morning!", from Apocalypse Now. Some of the Campaign events are named after pop culture references: The Bandit event "Big Yellow Taxi" is a reference to the Joni Mitchell song of the same name. The Thief event "Rocket Man" is a reference to the Elton John song of the same name. Another event, also from Thief, is called "Out With a Bang". The Yakuza event "The Dead Pool" is a reference to the Marvel Comics character Deadpool. The first Godfather event is "Attack the Block", while the first Goodfella event is "King of the Hill". Its description even references the propane aspect of protagonist Hank Hill. The Hit Man event "All Your Base" is a quote from the infamous English translation of Zero Wing. Another Hit Man event "I Feel the Need" is a quote from Top Gun – "I feel the need, the need for speed!" | |

Company Cross References: Oil tankers have an "Apex Oil" logo on them, buses have "Apex Metro" written on their liveries, and the Pug Sport has "Apex Super" as one of its sponsors, referencing the game's developers. On Destra City, the Amiga Boing Ball logo could be seen. The Boing Ball was also used by Apex Designs briefly as their logo, emphasizing on their former status as a producer of Amiga games. | |

External Combustion: The red van in "Ready or Not", which must be driven in front of a rival crime lord's courtyard. It then explodes after the mission, destroying the crime lord's house. The ice cream van in "Gangster Tripping" and the rocket car in "Born Slippy", which you must deliver to the garage in time, which are both rigged to explode if both aren't delivered. The tanker in "Born Slippy", which the player uses to blow up a rival gang's garage. | |
