when can we pre load on steam?

[eitan4700]

i just dont wanna download a 40 gig game when i can play it right on launch insted

[Bailus]

I've seen April 3rd but it could be any day now we have no real confirmation

[iamc24]

xbox and switch both have preload ready and playstation has the download up with preload coming soon, so i would expect it any day now

[Feebs]

its always the friday before launch.

we dont know for pc. we know that switch and xbox can do theres and ps4/5 can do there on the 3rd and if what feebs say is true that its also the friday before then its not happening. that said i normally seen it happen the day before so 3rd/4th is my bet if they do one

I heard that the pre-load is for all platforms except for PC but that's just a thing that i heard and I really hope its a lie us PC players has been in pain like about spider man not available for PC in the marvel game like what did us people on PC do to deserve this, some stuff isn't available for PC and it feels wrong thy want to make us buy the other stuff like PS5 or Xbox for money and leaving the people with a PC sad or angry and then it feels like we are in a cage and there is no way out and i was in such pain a lot of times i think that every platform must be treated the same i know thy are doing this for money but people cant buy what thy want and then thy are left sad or angry or just fully wanting that person to die or something im just saying this because this has been going on for some time and also its just a thing I heard and there might be a pre-load for this and other games for all platforms and also that this is just my opinion

It'll most likely be the day before or the 3rd its easier to decode preloads so some can play the game earlier, I am well aware that some people recently got their game delivered to them, just console is less likely I guess.

[The Doom Slayer]

also what will the time of the launch be in south africa?

[The Doom Slayer]

so tomorrow by me its going to be 3 April rn its 2 April so are you sure its going to be pre loadable on April 3 just asking i was waiting for a Lego game like this and i cant wait

[answers_]

Usually for PC pre loads are later than console due to it being easier to decode the game files so some that know how can play it early so it’ll be the 3rd or day before the launch
