- Original Hardware
- PC · Steam digital edition
- Playback Compatibility
- Continued access requires the archive account, Steam’s support for the title, and Behaviour Interactive online services.
- Preservation Concerns
- Live-service multiplayer structure creates high preservation risk: chapter DLC rotation, server dependency, and account authentication. No offline installer is held.
- Edition History
- Steam release dated June 14, 2016. Live chapters revise the licensed client in place; this accession records the account-bound digital edition in custody.
- Access Status
- Held as a permanent digital license on the archive Steam account while that custody and the required online services continue.
