Pillars of Eternity[]
New releases are uploaded to Steam directly by the game's developers, and hence appear there first. This is followed by releases on GOG.com up to one business day later, as well as the Mac App Store, Epic Games Store, and Origin following suit. Note that retail copies of the game activate on Steam.
The expansion The White March - Part I (PX1) was released together with patch 2.00, and the expansion The White March - Part II (PX2) together with patch 3.00. Those patches added all of the expansion's gameplay/UI improvements to the main game as well, just not the new content. The expansions follow the same version and build numbers as the main game and receive new patches together with the main game.
All version numbers are accurate to the Steam/Retail version, other platforms often use a different minor and build version. From version (1.)3.7.1377, all announcements and patch notes are prefixed with "1.x", but in-game (with the exception of build 1.3.7.1377 itself) the version in the bottom left of the title screen omits this prefix. The reason for this is unclear. The executable file versions are often not representative of the in-game version, with more recent executable versions displaying the version number of Unity instead.
