I gave the beta for this a test about a week ago and it worked quite well. If you own the game already, it should update to the Steamworks version automatically. If you don't yet own the game, you can pick it up for just $2.99 (USD) through Steam while it's on sale. That's a massive 85% off of its normal price!
