How to play\u00a0Manor Lords early access Manor Lords' early access is available to download and play right now through its official game page on Steam. Here's how you can get involved: Go to the Steam storefront via your browser or the app. Search for Manor Lords, and go to the Manor Lords Steam page. Purchase the early access build. Download it. Hop in once it's installed to get building and battling. The only way to have played\u00a0Manor Lords\u00a0earlier than its early access launch on April 26, 2024, was to be a\u00a0high-profile content creator or streamer and receive access courtesy of the developer\u2014Slavic Magic.
