And now everyone who owns Satisfactory has access to the experimental branch, whether you're on Epic or on Steam.
In Epic, it's accessible by simply just going to your library, and you'll have two versions of Satisfactory.
One will be Satisfactory Early Access, and one will be Satisfactory Experimental.
Install and play the Experimental version, and you're on Experimental.
On Steam, you need to find Satisfactory in your library.
Right-click on it, go to Properties, go to Betas, and then there'll be a dropdown box, and from that dropdown box, you'll be able to choose Experimental, and that's how you opt into Experimental.
You switch it back to the empty line to go back to the normal version of Satisfactory.
But most importantly is that you should back up your saves because saves are not compatible from like a newer version of the game going back.
So if you run into any issues and you want to revert back, you may not be able to load your saves in the old version, right?
In the early access version of the game.
Not only that, sometimes cloud saves do strange things that no one can ever predict.
