Game companies spend money on outside gamers to test their games for multiple reasons.

One common reason is to find bugs, glitches, or parts of the game that don’t work correctly.

Another reason is to get an idea of what the average gamer thinks of the game. If companies simply play tested within their own staff, they wouldn’t get a very broad idea of what people think of their game.
