Game Not Released error code when i tried to install

[John Wick]

Hello, I recently wanted to try the new update but when I choose the download location, error pops that he Game is not released yet. Also, it vanishes from my library too. I can see it only in store (and I bought it few weeks ago in some sale or something) Any fix to this please? Thanks guys.

Thread is a few month old, but to fix download issues caused by Steam itself is mostly quite simple.

First open the Steam-Settings and navigate to download, then look for the Clean Download-Cache option. If this fixes the issue fine.

If not repeat the progress, change the Download-Region and restart your computer. After this it should download.

I'm getting the same error on a MacBookPro M3. Clearing the download cache and changing the download region did not help

Right now if I recall recent threads, Macs are straight up having trouble running it at all. You might look for some threads in this section or the troubleshooting / bug report areas and see if you all have the same version of your OS or any other similar features, which might help the devs - send that info to their Zendesk reporter too.

Did you ever figure it out? Having the same issue on M1 MacBook Pro 14. I know I had this installed and working fine months ago, but now I can't install it and the cache clear does nothing for me.

No, was hoping someone knew or the developer made some updates

Still having this issue, so strange

I'm having this exact issue on a Windows 10 PC

I'm having this issue with Windows 11 PC. Cleared the download cache and tried a few different download regions and it still doesn't work.

If somebody finds that Thread and is running into the same issue.
This happens cause you have the No Man's Sky Trial on your account, and not the full game.
Go to Help => Support => >Games, Software, etc. => Search for No Man's Sky => If you have " Purchased as part of: No Man's Sky Trial - view receipt" click on view Receipt => Remove permanently from Account. After that you can buy No Man's Sky or play it via Family again.

I bought NMS before, some preupdate version for 5$ but still having this problem. But this is probably the solution to fix it because I was trying some trials before too.
