You can follow the following step-by-step guide in order to sign up for the Open Beta for the co-op shooter. This Beta program is specifically available only for Steam (PC) and Xbox players. Our guide will cover the requisites essential for both.

Signing up on Steam

Following these simple steps will provide players access to the game's Open Beta:

  • Open Steam and navigate to Payday 3's store page.
  • Upon opening the game's store listing, scroll down to the Request Access prompt and click it

This will enroll players into the upcoming Open Beta for the co-op shooter game. While the closed beta did have very restricted access, the Open Beta has relatively relaxed access, and we speculate the majority of the enrolled players will receive access to the game.


Signing up on Xbox

It is essential for Xbox series X or Xbox series S owners to have access to Xbox Insider in order to enroll for the Open Beta. Those without access can follow these steps to take part in the program:

  • Head over to Xbox Insider Hub.
  • Navigate to the Previews section.
  • Select Payday 3, and choose the option to Play.

Upon following these simple steps, players will be enrolled in the upcoming beta program.
