Hi Pioneers!

Today we are doing a small but necessary hotfix from our side for the current Experimental, there’s no new major fixes or additions, but this will help with our current way of parsing crash reports so we can better address more crashes in the future

If you haven’t yet but are interested in giving the Experimental version a try remember to BACKUP YOUR SAVE before trying it to avoid losing any of your progress

You can backup your save by copying the folders in:

C:Users\\\[YOUR USER]AppDataLocalFactoryGameSavedSaveGames\\\[YOUR ID FOLDERS]

To access the Experimental version on Steam:

Right click Satisfactory on your library > Properties > Game Versions & Betas > experimental

Then exit this menu and the experimental version will start downloading for you

To access the Experimental version on Epic:

In your Library, search for “Satisfactory Experimental” and install it, it’s a separate entry from the default version so you need to download it individually

If you run into any new issues when trying the latest Experimental, please let us know over at our QA Site https://questions.satisfactorygame.com/ Your posts are extremely valuable for us and we read them every day

Thank you for your support and feedback during this Experimental, See you next time <3
