If you’re wondering how to create an account for Payday 3 – here’s what we’ve found out.

Despite our Payday 3 review which lauds the game’s gameplay and environments, it’s still experiencing severe issues with matchmaking which have resulted in much backlash from fans of the franchise. One of the issues we’ve already covered slightly seems to be pertaining with players being unable to create an Starbreeze Nebula account following launching the game initially. Upon the game’s early access launch, the servers nearly instantly crashed, meaning it was virtually impossible for anyone to play the game.

If you’re interested in how to create an account for Payday 3 – let’s go over everything you need to know.

Create a Starbreeze Nebula account in Payday 3

You can make a Starbreeze Nebula account from within Payday 3. When you boot the game for the first time, it’s going to give you an option to Create Account, which you can follow through the instructions as you would normally. However, we’re very aware of a persistent issue with players being unable to create an account.

If you are able to get through to the Starbreeze Nebula site, you might face an issue with the site loading properly. If you’re able to get through, enter an email, password, and all other relevant information. You might need to confirm your email too.

If you’re done with that, you’re going to be able to link either your Steam, Epic Games Store, Xbox, or PlayStation account to the Nebula account. This will enable crossplay.

You’re then going to be able to login to Payday 3.

Create a Starbreeze Nebula account in your web browser

When we tried to access Payday 3’s early access – we were faced with the issue with creating an account. What worked best for us to get online was trying to access the sign-up portal through the web browser instead of Payday.

This might make it much easier for you to start up on building the best stealth build, or giving the Gold & Sharke heist a go.
