You can opt-in to our experimental releases through the options -> other -> enable experimental updates,
Or through steams beta options by right-clicking factorio -> betas -> experimental 0.15

Good joke.

Steam reports only 0.14 as experimental and 0.13 as stable.

Strange, it's in my list (maybe restarting Steam might help):

I get the same list, except for 0.15.0 which is not on that list.

Jokes aside, you are not the only one ready and willing to test 0.15 early. However, we all have to wait until the devs release the first experimental version, and the last I heard for the release date was sometime in February 2017.

And no, I don't have access to 0.15. The screenshot posted above is just my poor attempt at photoshopping Steam's betas list (and making you restart your Steam client if you actually believed that screenshot).

Nice idea.

I also don't see it (US Region). Maybe it's accidentally locked to a region?

Edit:
How dare you daniel. I TRUSTED YOU!

- Factorio 0.15 is announced for February. Not yet.
- The release-bot posts also an article in Release board. In doubt I would look there.

The list is now shorter as to what we can opt into. How do we get access to the 0.15 experimental version?
