Issue for customers who purchased Premium Upgrade on Steam
We have identified an issue that prevents Standard Edition purchases with the Upgrade version from accessing Advanced Access. We sincerely apologize for any confusion this may have caused.
To resolve this, we recommend contacting Steam Support to request a refund and then purchasing the Premium Edition. This will save you money compared to the Upgrade Edition and will grant you access to Advanced Access. Valve is aware of the issue and will fully support this.
