PAYDAY 3 Technical Closed BETA

PAYDAY 3 is hosting a technical Closed Beta from August 2nd to August 7th. Players can sign-up for a chance to play the game on Steam and Xbox Series S|X. How do I get into the beta?

A: This is a technical test first and foremost. This means devs are prioritizing meeting our technical goals over letting people try the game. The process itself will look as following, using the Steam & Xbox beta programs:

Steam: Visit the PAYDAY 3 store page and press “Request Access” near the top of the page.

Xbox: Go to the Xbox Insider Hub, navigate to previews, select PAYDAY 3.

How do I know if I was given access to the beta/How long do I need to wait to find out that I’m able to join?

Devs go through and approve people several times per day, and you’ll receive an email if you’ve been selected to participate. So keep an eye on your inbox!

Is there anything I can do to increase my chances at getting into the beta?

A: No, Steam applications are randomly approved. Xbox are first come first served.
