- Steam is a digital distribution service owned by Valve. Originally created to distribute its own games, Steam has since expanded to become the de facto standard for digital distribution of PC games, and supports community features, downloadable content and achievements.
- Rape Day has been on Steam since at least February 19. We know from another game, Boobs Saga, that games are in some cases listed on the Steam store before being approved for sale. We have reached.
I've pre-ordered Grand Theft Auto V on Steam. When I pre-ordered, Value cheekily charged the full amount to my credit card, so I'm all paid up. Just waiting for it to drop.
Aug 11, 2016 - Hmm. I think you just need to have it open for when the pre-load is available. It should say on the store page whether it will pre-load.
If I leave my Windows PC on, with Steam logged in and energy saving disabled, on the evening of Monday, 13th April, 2015, will my Steam client automatically start the download after midnight—or do I have to stay up and click a button? By all accounts, the download is huge, and I'd like to start it as early as possible so it has the best chance of being ready by the time I put my three-year-old to bed on Tuesday evening.
Being old and grumpy, I'm not very keen on staying up past midnight on a work night if I don't have to.

Steam does not auto-download preordered games. It doesn't auto download any games. It only downloads what you manually select for install, and since you can't install preordered games yet, you are out of luck. Except if it does offer preloading as mentioned by Orc JMR in the comments.
you actually can, by installing the steam app on your phone, you can remotely install the game when you're away.but you must leave your computer running with steam on

Metro Exodus is exclusive to the Epic Games Store, unless you pre-purchased it on Steam prior to January 29, in which case you'll get it on Steam. It's a little strange, but probably the least-awkward way to handle the awkwardness of switching platforms just a few weeks before release.
What's even stranger is that, according to the Metro Exodus Twitter account, people who get the game on Steam will be given a preload period, but those on Epic's store will not.

'Preloading' is simply the process of downloading and installing a game ahead of its release date, so you can jump in and start playing the moment it goes live. For people with slow or unstable internet connections, being able to preload a big game like Metro—the download clocks in at around 50GB—can mean the difference between playing on launch day and playing a day (or two) after.

Deep Silver did not say why preloading won't be available through the Epic Games Store, but a rep confirmed that the tweets are accurate. We'll have a review of Metro Exodus this week.
