**What you were expecting to happen, and what actually happened?**  
Start the game. I get a message that there’s a version and I should update. But:

1. My game had just updated.
2. Verified integrity of files, they’re all ok, also restarted Steam and my PC, problem persists.

**Do you have any screenshots or video you want to share with us so we can see the problem? Attach them to your post!**

Seconded. Also verified, just finished restarting everything. Android version still seems to work for now. Looks like they forgot to deploy that Steam update that was supposed to happen earlier this week, but set the switch to make it required going into guild wars. Tagging @sirrian @Nimhain @saltypatra

Thanks.

iOS appears to be working, as well.  
Hopefully people on Steam also have other options.

Have we ninja’d it if I confirm we fixed it? Or because I am a ninja is it a double ninja?
