Note: The preview branch is meant as a beta-version of upcoming patches. It is not as stable as the default live branch.

How to activate the preview branch:

• go to your library in steam, right click on Divinity: Dragon Commander and select properties.
  
• You will see a tab BETAS on the top. Select it and enter the following code in the private betas section: W7QQVNWzQ8X8QRd6
  
• You should now have a "Preview" option in the dropdown list. Select it and wait for a moment as steam syncs to the Preview branch.
  If the preview does not appear in the list, or your game is not being updated, please restart steam completely by exiting steam and logging in again.
  
• If you want to change back to the normal version, simply repeat the steps above but select "NONE" instead of "preview" in the dropdown list
