Out of seemingly nowhere, Starbreeze Studio revealed Payday 3 open beta. Set to be playable for a span of around three days, this open beta serves to test the servers. But what time is the Payday 3 open beta playable?
Payday 3 open beta release time and date
Payday 3 Open Beta will be playable from September 8 at 7 am PST until September 11 at 1 am PST. Convert the time zone appropriately.
That’s a little over three days. The main purpose of the Payday 3 is to break the servers, which have separate specified times to maximize player logins.

For players wanting to actually help with the testing, log in and matchmake “all at once on Sunday, September 10th at 01:00 CEST as well as 18:00 CEST (check the times for your timezone here) until something breaks.”
What is the Payday 3 open beta?
For those unaware, the Payday 3 open beta is only available for Xbox Series X|S and PC via Steam. The Payday 3 open beta’s main purpose is for players to “push their servers to the limit.”
According to IGN, here’s what the open beta offers:
- The original gang: Dallas, Hoxton, Chains and Wolf. The iconic clown-masked characters that made the Payday franchise infamous are all playable.
- No rest for the wicked is a Payday 3 bank heist, that charges the players with relieving a small bank of the cash cluttering up their vault. It’s their own choice to go stealth without anyone noticing how the cash evaporated or go loud to really experience that NYC robbery feeling.
- All difficulties will be playable, level cap is Infamy Level 22 and Weapon Level Progression is at eight.
Considering it’s only available for around four days, make the most of the experience before the official release date on September 21.
