This is made possible because SteamDB keeps track of updates to all games, so as long as the version you want was available after the game has been publicly released, this should work.
Go to SteamDB [steamdb. Click on the app ID of the game you're looking for. This will take you to it's details page. On the left of the screen you'll see a menu. Navigate to "Depots", and then click on the depot ID of the one you'd like to download. Clicking your chosen depot ID will take you to a new page. Now click on the "Manifests" tab.
Look at the list and find the version that you want to download. Record it's manifest ID. A launch application should pop up. Select the Steam client and open the link. This will open the Steam console in your Steam client. Wait for Steam to download the depot. You won't see any indication of progress, but you can tell it's downloading by looking at the network usage on your downloads page.
After the download is done, Steam will show you where the files were downloaded to. Go to the original game's installation directory, and move the files somewhere else.
Then go to where the depot files were downloaded to, and move everything over to the game folder. You may have to rename the game's EXE file if the dev changed the launch options recently. You should now be able to launch the old version through Steam! Note: Game updates will make a mess of things, so if you want to stay on the same version, you should make a copy of the files so you don't have to download them again after Steam's done trying to update. Follow for more. Like what I do?
Dr Inconsiderate 21 Oct pm. Just tried this and it does not work. I keep getting an error that it wont start. Trying to roll back Valheim, the depot it downloads is the latest one, not the one I'm telling it to download.
CPY 28 Sep am. It's no longer working for me in non bet version :. Agret 27 Sep pm. We soon won't be able to download old versions of games anymore, either using Steam client or depotdownloader tool. Aquafawks 27 Sep pm. Anyone that can't get this to work just isn't following the directions. Crazyscholar98 9 Jul pm. Share to your Steam activity feed. Games that are marked as Complete or Canceled must have builds uploaded. For Work-in-Progress games, you are only encouraged to add builds once you have something playable.
You can also upload additional, non-playable files for your game as "Other" builds. These could be things like level editors, map packs, PDF manuals, etc. Packages allow you to bundle your game files on your game page and keep them separate from additional files.
For example, if you have a server application, you should distinguish it from your main game by putting it in its own package.
If you have an art pack or another optional expansion, you can package that up separately. You can add multiple builds to a package for all the different platforms on which your game runs. Packages contain versioned releases so that gamers can easily identify the latest builds available within a package, as well as see the release history.
Remember that you can add multiple builds to a release. If you're adding game files, make sure to put builds for all the platforms on which your game runs into the same release. Only create a new release if you have a new version of the package. Important: Releases start out hidden by default, so when you're ready for your builds to become active and accessible on your game page, you must publish them! Just like packages have names, releases have version numbers.
Example: 1. A new MAJOR version indicates a major release such as the official launch, a complete overhaul, a sequel, etc. A new MINOR version indicates significant updates such as new features, additional content, graphical updates, etc. A new PATCH version indicates smaller changes such as bug fixes, hotfixes, balancing, optimizing, etc. While your game is in development, consider starting with a small version number such as 0. This will allow you to grow your version number for new releases during development without it becoming too large.
If you're releasing your game's first stable package, consider labeling it 1. This usually signals to users that it's stable and ready to play.
Version number formats adhere to the SemVer specifications.
