How to Change Game Versions or Join Betas on Steam
Steam allows developers to release game versions and betas for their games. The former lets players access a previous version of the title, and the latter authorises them to join betas that offer access to future versions of the game that are being worked on. Think of it as a miniature Early Access.
- Whether you want to join a beta or go back to a previous version, you’ll find it on the same tab. Here’s how you do it:
- Go to the game in your Steam library.
- Right-click and select Properties.
- Find Game Versions & Betas.
There, you can select the version you want or even add a code to access a private one (these are given by the developers). As Steam warns, please remember to back up your saves if you’ll be doing this. Many of these can be unstable and lose you progress or entire save files!
