The film was released on 29 May 2014 in China and on 5 June 2014 in Hong Kong.[2][3]

Reception
Boon Chan of The Straits Times states "The complicated web of relationships and land dealings plus the high-tech electronic monitoring make Overheard 3 feel overstuffed and underwhelming."[4]
Gabriel Chong of Moviexclusive.com gave the film a 2.5 out of 5 stars, and states "Compared to its predecessors too, the storytelling goes bogged down in way too much exposition particularly in the middle segment."[5]
The film grossed ¥27.7 million (US$4.43 million) on the opening day in China.[6]
