Since the final release of Payday 3 is also coming to Xbox with Game Pass, I'll show you the steps to opt in for the open beta.

Keep in mind that Payday 3 will only appear here when the open beta starting timer stops counting down. The game will remain visible on the Xbox Insider Hub previews until the end of the technical open beta. Before or after this time, you may not be able to see the game appear on this list.
