Deep Silver and Starbreeze have announced that an open beta for Payday 3 is coming very soon, as it’s set to begin later this week across PC and Xbox (but not PlayStation).
The technical open beta, as it’s called, runs September 8-11 and features one heist for players to check out before the game officially releases on September 21. This is an open beta, which means everyone can try it out without needing a code, key, or any other means.
Anyone who tries the beta and isn’t totally impressed should know that the Payday 3 beta is based on a version of the game from April 2023 and “is not a final representation” of the game. The content available in the open beta is the same as the closed beta earlier this year.
