description: A guide designed to help you with installing yuzu Early Access.

## What is yuzu Early Access?
|
||
yuzu `Early Access` is a release channel that includes all the same daily yuzu updates that you are accustomed to, plus the early releases of features that you have typically seen in special Patreon releases!
|
||
Instead of downloading manual builds from patreon, you'll get these new `Early Access` builds directly via the Installer (future updates included).

||
## How do I install yuzu Early Access?
|
||
|
||
#### Step 1
|
||
If you already are a Patron at $5/month or more, move on to `Step 2.`
|
||
Otherwise, you need to become a Patron at the `Early Access tier.` [**Click here to subscribe**](https://www.patreon.com/join/yuzuteam/checkout?rid=2822069)

||

|
||
|
||
#### Step 2
|
||
Next, you need to login to your yuzu profile page.
|
||
Click on the link given below to proceed.<br>
|
||
<a href="https://profile.yuzu-emu.org/" target="_blank"><b>yuzu profile page</b></a><br>
|
||
|
||
><p style="color:lawngreen;"><b><i>By clicking on the link, a new tab will open, redirecting you to the Citra Community forum.
|
||
As both Citra and yuzu share a common Discourse forum, you'll have to either log in with those credentials or create a new account there.
|
||
Users also have the option of signing in using their existing Google or GitHub account.</i></b></p>
|
||
|
||
{{< imgs

||
>}}
|
||
|
||
#### Step 3
|
||
When logged in, you should see your yuzu profile details. Click `Link Patreon Account` and login with your Patreon credentials.
|
||
|
||
{{< imgs
|
||
"./3.png|yuzu Profile Information"
|
||
>}}
|
||
|
||
#### Step 4
|
||
You should now find that you have `early-access` as one of your Active release channels, and your Patreon account should indicate that it is `Linked` and `Subscribed`.
|
||
|
||
{{< imgs
|
||
"./4.png|Profile Link Status"
|
||
>}}
|
||
|
||
#### Step 5
|
||
Now that your account is linked, copy your login token by highlighting the text and pressing `CTRL + C` on your keyboard.
|
||
|
||
{{< imgs
|
||
"./5.png|yuzu Profile token"
|
||
>}}
|
||
|
||
#### Step 6
|
||
Next, download and run the latest version of the Installer: [**Click here to download.**](https://yuzu-emu.org/downloads/)
|
||
You should see an option to select the `Early Access` release channel.
|
||
|
||
**Note:** `Early Access` includes all the same features and updates as the regular yuzu, so you don’t need to install both!
|
||
|
||
{{< imgs
|
||
"./6.png|yuzu Installer (Updated)"
|
||
>}}
|
||
|
||
#### Step 7
|
||
On the next page of the installer, paste the token you previously copied in `Step 4` by selecting the `Token Entry Box` and pressing `CTRL + V` on your keyboard, and then click `Verify Token` to authenticate.
|
||
|
||
{{< imgs
|
||

|
||

|
||
|
||
#### Step 8
|
||
If all of the above steps were completed successfully, verification should succeed and you should be able to complete the installation of `Early Access.`
|
||
|
||

|
||
|
||
As long as you keep your Patreon subscription valid, you will continue to receive Patreon-specific updates, as well as regular yuzu updates, automatically by just running `yuzu Early Access` from your Start menu.
|
||
|
||
## Additional Step
|
||
All Patreon subscribers with a pledge of 5$ or above, are eligible for Discord rewards.
|
||
Patrons need to link their Discord account with their Patreon account to gain access to exclusive support channels on our [Discord server](https://discord.gg/u77vRWY).
|
||
