When there is a new update to this game do I need to go back to the download page I got in the email when I bought the game and then redownload and reactivate with my key I got when i Purchased it or is there an easier way? Also was this coming to steam? I also was wondering if the pro football 21 was coming to steam as well (I know this is the wrong forum but if it's an easy yes or no it might be ok to ask here along with my other basketball question) Thanks! Also great job I am thoroughly enjoying both titles as well as the NCAA ones I got recently.
thanks! Looking forward to the future updates with this title greatly!

look at post at top of forum.

viewtopic.php?f=327&t=32755

depending on the update, you either just run a small update file or in some cases may need to download a full install file from your original purchase. there is no need to reactivate as that is tied to your computer. it is coming to steam and in fact if you purchase early access, you’ll also get a free steam key besides the direct download when the steam version is available.

as for football, the steam version is already available.

According to their First Access email on PB21, It will be available on Steam. Also according to that email "You'll also get a complimentary Steam key with every pre-order"

So if you use the Steam Key, Steam will automatically download all updates like it does for normal games. Which is main reason why I use Steam. So much easier for updates.

But all the above only applies once the game is fully released.For any updates during First Access you will have to check out the thread Sly posted.
