Publisher Deep Silver and developer Starbreeze have . The co-op heist shooter will be available to everyone from September 8-11. According to Starbreeze, the test will serve as a stress test of sorts for the Payday 3 servers ahead of its September 21 launch.
Because it is open to all, the technical open beta will not require a key to gain access. Instead, anyone can download and join the test. If you played the recent closed beta test, the content in this open test will be the same. Apparently, it’s based on an April 2023 build and not a final representation of Payday 3.
It’s a great chance to check out the gameplay of Payday 3 ahead of its release later this month.
One heist, but all difficulties
Even though only one heist is available during the beta, all original characters and all difficulties will be available. The Infamy level cap for the beta will be 22 while th⛄e Weapon level cap is 8. Also, the beta will include the following features:
- The original gang: Dallas, Hoxton, Chains, and Wolf. The iconic clown-masked characters that made the PAYDAY franchise infamous are all playable, each with their own unique skillset.
- Featured heist: “No Rest for the Wicked” will be the playable heist during the closed beta. Representative of classic PAYDAY heists, “No Rest for the Wicked” tasks the players with liberating a small bank of the cash cluttering up their vault. Heisters can sneak through the building, “liberating” the bank’s cash, or go in guns blazing to get the full-on adrenaline rush of a big city bank robbery.
- All difficulties will be playable, level cap is Infamy Level 22 and Weapon Level Progression is maxed at 8.
