You also get access to the Premium Queue instead of the Free Queue on login.

A: Once Premium, you are always Premium. You would not go back to free.

A: The Ultimate Edition will give you all powers, fourteen episodes, and many other features permanently on your account. Membership grants you access to everything that’s in the Ultimate Edition and more, plus additional perks like replay badges. The content and perks that are accessible with Membership are only available while you are a Member. For more information, or to buy, visit the Xbox Store.

Q: My purchase of Marketplace Cash and/or Membership isn’t showing up! What happened to it?
A: It’s there; it can just take a while to show up in game. Usually, this is fixed by logging out, waiting 10 minutes, and logging back in. If you’ve tried that and your purchase is still missing, contact our Customer Service team at help.daybreakgames.com.

Login Queues

Q: How do I bypass the free login queue?
A: If you purchase a bundle or a character slot, or if you buy and spend Marketplace cash in-game, you will be placed in the Premium Queue. If you buy membership, you will be placed in the Member Queue.

Q: Why is the login queue so long?!
A: The server is currently full. If you’re in the queue, you are waiting for players that are currently online to log off.

Q: But why IS there a login queue?
A: The queue is in place due to the current size of our server. However, we are adding capacity as quickly as possible! Thanks for being patient.
