Don't have access to early access

[idafien]

Purchased the deluxe Hogwarts Legacy yet don't have the early access option. Please advise.

Ask in the game's own forum. That is, if you get a word in among all the crap threads I heard of.

ugh, sounds pleasing.

I think this is more the general steam issue. I originally bought the original version, got the refund, and grabbed the deluxe less than an hour ago.

I think it's a glitch cause while the early access already began, the official release date (including that showing in my library) says the 10'th.

Generally, new releases happen at 10:00am Pacific time. So try again in about 9 hours.

It's three days early access. The game releases February 10th, 10AM PT.

Now, what time is it now?

Thanks mates,

Guess I got mixed up with all the streamings playing.

Has the Early Access actually started or are you just assuming that because of the date? Generally, store changes and releases of games happen around 10 AM PST. So if the game releases on the 10th at 10AM PST, the Early Access period won't start on the 7th before 10 AM PST (which is later today).

It's a global release, so the Early Access period also is global.

Apparently, some consoles got an earlier release (a few hours), PC release is later and the early access is 72 hours before the global PC release - so you have to wait a few hours
