This will be a short guide on how to download and play older builds of Conan Exiles.

A few things to keep in mind before you consider playing an outdated version of the game:

You will not have access to the Bazaar.

You will not have access to the current Battle Pass.

You will not be able to play on official servers.

Access to Bazaar purchases will be retained, *if* it was available in the build you download.

Tech support for playing an older version will be either limited or not available.

Mods, if installed, will likely behave in unintended ways or not function at all.
As they are 3rd party additions, there is no 'history hub' to download deprecated versions.

Your retail/live installation of the game will not be touched or altered in any way.
You'll be downloading a 'fresh' instance of the game. Make sure you have the space available.

Let's get started.

To begin, make certain Steam is running and that you are logged in.

Next, tap the windows key and type 'run'.
Depending on your operating system you should see something similar to the image below.


Start the 'Run' program and the following window will open:


Enter the command below and press OK:
steam://open/console

Once done, open Steam. You should now have the 'Console' option to the right of your username.


Go there and you'll be greeted by following screen:


Great, now we're ready to give Steam some commands!

For the purpose of this guide, we'll be using AGE OF SORCERY: CHAPTER 3 as our chosen build.

With the steam console open, input the following command:
download_depot 440900 440901 1446335074801417869

This will start downloading the main game content, it will require approximately 90GB of space.
There is no progress indicator, the console will notify you when it's done downloading.

When it's done, input the next command:
download_depot 440900 440902 5321157248918662356

This one will download the game's executable files, it's also much smaller at only 120MB.

When both are done, go to the following file, which is where the download will be located:
C:\Steam\steamapps\content

Note: Default location, depending on where you installed Steam, the path may differ.

And there's the file we need, app_440900 - Conan Exiles, go ahead and open it.
Inside should be two folders:


Open the depot_440902 folder.
There's only a single file here (Conan Exiles), copy it and go back to the previous screen.

Now open the depot_440901 folder.
Paste the file you just copied.

That's the download and files sorted, the executable to launch the game can be found here:
C:\Steam\steamapps\content\app_440900\depot_440901\ConanSandbox\Binaries\Win64

Note: Default location, depending on where you installed Steam, the path may differ.

Enjoy the game!

Below is a list of all legacy builds I've currently identified, starting with the most recent.

Please note that all builds mentioned here are the LAST in their respective patch cycles, meaning that (for example) the Age of Sorcery - Chapter One build listed is the last patch prior to the launch of Chapter two.

(A full list might be something i'll do in the future, but as there's well over 200 builds to comb through, unlikely.)
