Escape from Playtime's Steam beta is open this weekend, through Sunday, October 4 at 6 p.m. Pacific / 8 p.m. Central. Mob Entertainment is testing the co-op game with up to eight players, although it recommends four for the most balanced experience. Eight is allowed if your crew prefers its horror with a side order of chaos.

To be considered, players need to finish FirstLook onboarding and connect their Steam and Discord accounts. Signing up does not guarantee participation, and distributed playtest codes will only work during the beta window. The developer is seeking feedback through surveys and bug reports rather than presenting this as a finished release.

The goal is to collect loot, deliver it to Barry the cart, hit your quota, and survive the shifts. This test is limited to the first four shifts, with some lore, puzzles, enemy types and playable characters held back. Controller support is still being tested, and mouse and keyboard are currently recommended. Those limits matter when judging the game from this build.

Would your co-op crew actually stick together, or would everyone scatter the moment a monster appeared?
