Steam won’t refund games you play for two hours before launch

[[{“value”:”

The standard two-hour playtime refund window for games bought at the Steam Store will now also apply to titles marked “Early Access” or “Advanced Access,” according to the service’s creator, Valve. Such games haven’t technically been released yet, so under previous rules, it was possible to play them for dozens or hundreds of hours and still request a refund. It’s unknown how many people may have taken advantage of the loophole, which would’ve been available for high-profile titles as recent as Palworld and Lethal Company.
