How to start the game on epic without Year one edition?

[grueti]

I want to finish my arkham Playthrough. I deactivated the auto update in the epic launcher before the year one edition launched. Now the game shows as year one edition in the epic launcher and it always wants to update before i can start the game. It doesn’t let me start the game without the year one update. How can i start the game without the year one update? Or can i continue my old savegame after the year one update?

Unfortunately not, they are not longer compatible.

How can i start the game without the year one update?

1. Close the Epic launcher.
2. Search for the folder where the game is installed (if you didn’t change the path when installing the game it should look something like this: “C:\Program Files\Epic Games\Phoenix Point”)
3. In this folder start (double click) “PhoenixPointWin64.exe”

See in this thread, someone preserved 1.8, contact via Personal Messages here

Savegames are gone, need to rollback (Gamepass)

Epic ‘kinda sorta’ does but i functionally require you to have a separate ‘game’ entry in your library. Its not really like the Steam model where you can select a specific beta channel from potentially dozens of them. I’m seeing it mostly for games that hvae an experimental type of build that they want people to test on, and a mainline build for everyone else. I guess they could somehow provide a ‘1.8’ version of the game maybe call it like Phoenix Point Classic or something. On the GamePass …
