How To Download And Install
The Tutorial Below Uses A Method That Requires Windows 10 (Perferably Windows 10, At Leasts Own Windows In General), and 7-Zip[www.7-zip.org]

1. Click on any one of the download links above (downloads don't start automatically).
   
2. Once you have selected which version you want, click the red "DOWNLOAD NOW" button that is located near the top of the page, just above the description.
   
3. Just wait for the download to start, and once it does start, simply wait for it to finish downloading. If the download doesn't start, instructions should be listed on the site on how to try an alternative method for downloading it.
   
4. Once it is done downloading, find it in your downloads folder, or whatever location you downloaded it to.
   
5. OPTIONAL - If you want to be safe and maintain a good habit, don't hesitate to perform a virus scan on the file before you continue on.
   
6. Right click on the Gang Beasts file that you just downloaded, then go to "7-Zip", then "Extract Here."
   
7. Once you do that, you're done! The executable (the thing that launches the game) should appear around the file you downloaded. Double click it, and you are ready to play!

Actually, 0.2.6 will be a standard update and won't be part of the unstable beta.

[Charybdis136]

no its unstable, read the update post again.

But I think you should also tell how to revert to the Stable build (v0.1.5a) again after you've downloaded the Unstable one (v0.2.5b, that will soon become v0.2.6).
Also it's v0.2.5b and not v0.2.5a, you should fix the title...

Ah, yea, I'm not sure why I put 0.2.5a instead of b )X, just a mistake. I'm using the beta mobile thing for steam that lets you on communities and stuff, but I'm not really used to it yet, so once I get on my PC and remember, I'll fix it. As well as do that revert back to stable that you mentioned, thanks.

Alright did it.

[ColossalCereal]

I don't want to seem like I'm bumping here, but there are probably going to be some people wondering how to update right away. )X

[ColossalCereal]

another bump, sorry. i hate bumping its just like i feel as if this helps people not make constant posts and derails asking how to update
